Dorado and HUGE WSB in same week

Spring Break dorado

Saint Patrick's Green overshadowed by Yellows.

“Bryan's 6th toe. Slipped off our boots and found this #blister hangin' out between his ‘dedos de pie’. We've logged about 200 miles in our 50+ pound packs.” 

Stripers show, wind blows, Spring approaching

One time I sat in a spot where I knew there were fish but they would not go and I jumped in the water to see that there were fish every were. But I had to wait for a tide change. Then the light switch goes on for an hour or so … and that's it!

Yellowfin Tuna World Record Presentation at Long Beach Fred Hall Show

After standing for 33 years, the All-Tackle World Record for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) was first shattered by Mike Livingston on November 30, 2010 with a 405-pound (183.7 kg.) catch, and then again by Guy Yocom on September 18, 2012 with his even larger 427 pounder (193.68 kg.). Both fish were landed off the coast of Baja.

IGFA Trustee Mike Farrior and IGFA President Rob Kramer will present the latest yellowfin tuna All-Tackle World Record certificate to Yocom and his Captain, Greg DiStefano, at the upcoming Fred Hall Show in Long Beach, California. The presentation will take place on the Ultimate Saltwater Experience Theater Stage at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 7.

Not sure what happened but we lost the biggest mullet snapper I have ever seen hooked on a fly…so we resorted to conventional.

Humboldt squid to the north and Cabo striper's at the tip + IGFA Q&A

The aftermath of a crazy wide-open sierra bite on the Pacific Coast of Baja Sur…scales on my hands and a fly reduced to threads by sierra teeth. Even with only the epoxy head remaining, it was devoured on almost every cast. Let the fish smoking commence...Lance Peterson

Odd behavior and connecting the dots

Biggest tuna ever, Bureaucrats and bad trip or was it?

For Capt. Justin Fleck, who has been working in the long-range fleet since the 1990s, a 400-pound yellowfin tuna was akin to something like Sasquatch. For years people heard about them and claimed to have seen them, but there was never any proof that they existed. That all changed in 2010 when a 405-pound yellowfin became the world record.

Small Baja communities missed the memo...

The small communities located along the Viscaino west coast between Turtle Bay and Abreojos have enjoyed an unusual billfish bonanza this year. Above is a disturbing image that surfaced recently on Facebook. It accentuates the lack of knowledge about the Mexican sportfishing regulations which allows only one billfish per day per boat. It also demonstrates the lack of awareness of those who reside away from the population centers in Baja Sur of the importance of releasing billfish to preserve the resource.
