The fishing is much improved !!

Open charters this week and this coming Sunday July 26 th

Its amazing what several days of consistent winds from the south- southwest direction can do for the fishing. The water is finally warming up and the kings and bait are sticking around for the time being. Cross your fingers we don’t get a big north or east blow, because this will shuffle the fish around once again.

For the most part we have been targeting the kings with meat rigs, mostly green and UV teasers and bait heads. The flasher colors have been changing daily, glows in the am and brighter colors after sun up. Big flashers with pickled sunshine flies have been good fished deep off riggers and 300 – 400′ coppers.

Steelhead have been coming up high on orange and gold spoons.

If you fish meat, these are the ones to run. www.familiarbite.com
