Target Species on Multi-Day Trips

On our multi-day trips, our primary focus will be on targeting bluefin and yellowfin tuna. However, we'll also be on the lookout for dorado and yellowtail, which are commonly found in the same areas. If we encounter these species, we'll take a break from tuna fishing and switch to lighter tackle to try our luck. But make no mistake, our primary focus is on landing 200lb+ tuna, and we'll be equipped with the necessary gear to handle these massive fish. We'll also have species-specific bait, including frozen flying fish, to increase our chances of success.

Exploring Mexican Waters

One of the benefits of our multi-day charters in Mexican waters is the opportunity to catch a variety of species. The further south we go, the longer the fishing season extends. In fact, if we're willing to venture far enough south, we can fish all the way into December. It's not uncommon to experience a "never-ending summer" in these waters, with the warm waters and abundant marine life creating a fisherman's paradise.

IMPULSE

THE BIG FOUR

These four species will account for 95% of your catch.

On a multi-day summer trip with us, you'll have the opportunity to target a variety of highly sought-after game fish. Our expert captains and crew will guide you to the best fishing spots to catch bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, dorado (also known as mahi-mahi), and yellowtail.

Species Profile

  • Bluefin Tuna: Renowned for their incredible strength, speed, and size, bluefin tuna are a prized catch among anglers. Found in the waters off San Diego, they can grow to enormous sizes, with some individuals reaching over 1,000 pounds. Be prepared for an unforgettable fight with these powerful fish.
  • Yellowfin Tuna: Abundant in Southern California waters, yellowfin tuna are known for their bright yellow fins and impressive size. They're strong fighters that put up a fast-paced battle when hooked, with larger individuals weighing over 200 pounds.
  • Dorado (Mahi-Mahi): These colorful fish are highly prized for their vibrant hues and excellent fighting ability. Found in warmer waters, they're a common catch during the summer months and are renowned for their firm, flavorful meat.

They're often found in schools and put up a vigorous fight, making them a thrilling catch. Typically caught in the 20-40 pound range, larger specimens exceeding 50 pounds are also possible.

Maximizing Your Catch

The specific species you'll target during your multi-day trip will depend on factors such as the time of year, ocean conditions, and fish migration patterns. Our experienced captains and crew will use their expertise to put you on the best bite and maximize your chances of success.

MULTI DAY MIND SET
 
 

It is essential to know what you want, and tell us.

Planning Your Multi-Day Fishing Trip

To make the most of your multi-day fishing trip, it's essential to set clear goals and priorities. Start by considering the diverse habitats and species available on the trip, and create a schedule that allows you to target different fishing opportunities each day.

For example, you might choose to focus on trolling for medium-sized yellowtail and bluefin on the first day to stock up on fish, and then switch to kite fishing with frozen flying fish on the second day to target trophy-sized catches.

Defining Your Fishing Goals

Think about what drives your passion for fishing. Are you looking to catch a variety of species for a fresh seafood feast, or are you on the hunt for a monster-sized fish? The captain's lure selection, destination choice, and fishing methods can be tailored to help you achieve your goals, whether that's catching more fish or landing a record-breaker.

Flexibility is Key

While having a solid plan is crucial, it's equally important to remain flexible. Unpredictable factors like weather conditions can impact your fishing experience, so be prepared to adjust your schedule accordingly. By being adaptable and willing to pivot when necessary, you'll be able to make the most of your time on the water and enjoy a more fulfilling fishing trip experience.

Multi Day Techniques

Kite Fishing

A Proven Method for Trophy Catches

Kite fishing is a highly effective technique for targeting trophy tuna and other pelagic predators. By deploying live or dead baits using kites, anglers can present their offerings above the surface, where they're more likely to be seen by feeding fish. This method is particularly useful when drifting over underwater structure or schools of feeding fish, as it allows the bait to move naturally and attract the attention of predators.

Kite fishing is often used in conjunction with frozen flying fish, which are a favorite snack of bluefin tuna. By suspending the flying fish above the surface, anglers can create the illusion of a injured baitfish, which is irresistible to hungry tuna. This technique requires patience and skill, but the rewards can be substantial, with trophy catches of 200 pounds or more not uncommon.

Throwing Iron

A Proactive Approach to Starting the Frenzy

Throwing iron is a proactive technique that involves casting metal jigs off the bow of the boat, often at a distance from the target area. This method is designed to attract the first fish and start the frenzy, which can then be followed up with other techniques like live bait or kite fishing.

Throwing iron is a high-energy technique that requires a strong arm and good casting skills. However, when done correctly, it can be an extremely effective way to get the attention of feeding fish and start a bite.

 

Live Bait

The OG Method
 

Live bait drift fishing is a natural and effective way to catch large species like yellowtail and dorado. By deploying live baitfish, such as sardines or anchovies, anglers can create a realistic presentation that mimics the natural movement and behavior of these baitfish.

This technique involves drifting over known feeding areas, allowing the live bait to move naturally and trigger bites from predators. Live bait drift fishing is a patient approach that requires a good understanding of the local fishing grounds and the behavior of the target species.

Slow Trolling

The Patient Approach
 

Slow trolling is a patient and deliberate approach to targeting migratory species like bluefin tuna. By trolling lures or live bait at a slow pace, anglers can create a presentation that mimics the natural movement and behavior of these species.

Slow trolling requires a good understanding of the local fishing grounds and the behavior of the target species. It also requires patience and persistence, as the payoff can be slow in coming. However, when done correctly, slow trolling can be an extremely effective way to catch trophy-sized fish.

Yo-Yo Ironing

(aka The Flat Fall): A High-Action Technique

 Yo-yo ironing, also known as the flat fall, is a high-energy technique that involves using metal jigs called "iron" to cover water quickly while maintaining contact with bottom structure. This method is ideal for targeting aggressive fish like yellowtail and tuna, which are drawn to the rapid movement and flash of the iron.

By rapidly dropping the iron to the bottom and then retrieving it, anglers can create a reaction strike from these predators.

The flat fall is a versatile technique that can be used in a variety of situations, from targeting specific species to exploring new fishing grounds. By adjusting the weight and size of the iron, anglers can tailor their presentation to the specific fishing conditions and target species.

 

Spots We Fish

clemente

San Clemente Island.

If you want massive blue fin, this is one of, if not the MOST productive spot on the entire map. This place is almost always holding tuna. Most of our overnight and multiday trips start here. The backside is known for pre-dawn jig bites, and this is a lunching spot for the other nearby banks. During summer months is best.

tanner

Tanner & Cortez Banks.

These two spots represent the far end of a 1.5 day overnight trip, and is a common destination for all long range trips we offer. These banks come very close to the surface, even causing surfable waves at times. 
The underwater structure attracts all types of large pelagic predators, which is exactly what we are looking for.

outermex

Mexican Outer Banks.

Mexican international waters means no passport for these multiday trips. Enjoy the outright crazy fishing on any of these deep banks that are south and south west of San Clemente island. Home of giant blue fin, yellow fin, and Dorado, you will likely find that you are one of only few boats fishing the unpressured spot.
