July 31, 2007 - While mako shark fishing continues at a good clip, offshore albies have slowed, as warm waters (70 degrees) have pushed them even further offshore, or up north.

However! There have been reports of more yellowtail and dorado on paddies offshore, yellowtail have appeared in numbers at the Coronados, and Captain Scott Leon of Paradigm Shift Charters called in to report great fishing along the La Jolla Kelp.

A recent half-day trip resulted in lots of calico bass, bonito, and an 11lb. white seabass. See our Fishing Reports Forum for more info.

July 15, 2007 - Captain Conway Bowman of Bowman Bluewater Guides and Outfitters called in to report outstanding mako fishing during the last week, including a 20 fish day, with fish up to an estimated 160lbs., and a 15 fish day with fish up to an estimated 200lbs. See more in our fish report forum.

July 13, 2007 - Albacore on the 182 hav slowed. Floyd Sparks of the Tuna Kahuna called in to report picking up isolated jig fish to the south, around the 371 spots. Similar reports have appeared on other websites such as Bloody Decks. There also appear to be spots of fish between the 226 and 302, and also further south towards the 390 and the 1010 trench.

July 12, 2007 - If you don't have time to hit the offshore banks, coastal fishing along the San Diego area is still great. Barracuda and calico bass continue to please, with scattered spots of yellowtail and bonito. Small baitfish patterns or reaction-strike streamers like Seaducers, fished around the edges of the kelp beds will garner strikes.

July 6, 2007 - Captain Scott Leon of Paradigm Shift Charters called in to report lots of Albacore on the ridge south of the 182.
