 [Home] [Sportfishing] [Charters] [The CharkBoards] [Tackle Shop] [CharkGear] [Weekly Specials] [What's New?]

For the past four years we've run a charter on the Red Rooster. Our four day trip targets Guadalupe Island.  That was the plan again this year. Each year we've been lucky enough to hit things just right, I mean we have had tremendous trips that beat the odds - big time.  This trip was wonderful, with limited load, a terrific bunch of folks aboard.   This year the Chark and Beth stayed at the shop and Tom and his wife went and next year I am definitely on this trip!  Beth has exactly the same sentiments.

Like last year the folks first hooked up at Benitos for yellowtail of good quality and quantity (255 YT), then the second day fished Guadalupe yellowfin.  The yellowfin had been chewing almost as if on a dinner bell.  They'd not bite early or late, a mid-day thing.  You'd see 'em boil, but they would not eat until they felt the urge later in the day.  They folks landed fish up to 72 pounds, not as big as last year's 124# jackpot winner, but still a good quantity of decent size yellowfin (55 YFT).  On the way back up to San Diego the boat made some troll stops for yellowfin, searched out kelp paddies for additional opportunities for dorado (10). Nice trip, nice ride, great food and limited loads!

One point to remember, on this charter we had three guys who cancelled, two the day prior to departure.  Understandably, the boat requires payment for this trip up front and it's going regardless of whether you go or not.  We can handle a cancellation within a month's time, but closer to departure refunds are only possible if you or we can arrange someone to substitute for you. So, three guys couldn't go, and it was already a limited load trip @25 passengers aboard a 100' long range sportfisher.  So, in this case, 22 fisherman had plenty of rail time on a nice big boat!!!
