biglakejake Report post Posted May 17, 2014 never argue with el nino. tuna off point loma in april/may is a surer sign of el nino than anything noaa can predict. el nino can mean tuna for over 6 months off 'dego and yellowfin and bigeye off the golden gate in september. the best sd fishing will probably be mid june through labor day if history is any precedent. several boats going out under the spotters this weekend-mostly day-and-a-half trips. luck, lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted May 17, 2014 Are you talking about tuna at the pens? Bluefin off Pt. Loma or Yellowfin in the area already? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swivelhead Report post Posted May 19, 2014 Been a few years since I went out of San Diego. Last few trips were boat rides (still fun but disappointing). For the sake of the industry, hope they have a great year. Those of you thinking about trying a trip, I'd suggest getting hold of Ted at Phoenix Fishing. He can "hook you up".

Albies usually show up slightly before YFT, if they're going to show this year fish counts should reflect it soon. Still, it IS fishing, you just never know.
