Capt. Cool Ray Lopez from Miss Liane Sportfishing says there are yellowfin out along the shelves, but it’s a hit-or-miss scenario. “But,” he adds, “if you hit it right, it’s lights out fishing.” Trolling is still the main game, but chunking will soon be in full mode. An open boat trip once a week; call for updates.

Capt. Cool Ray Lopez from Miss Liane Sportfishing is locked and loaded to get out...frustrated by this past week’s less-than-marginal canyon conditions. He’s expecting the chunking bite to kick in to overdrive and excited by the sighting and reports of longfin. “Mahi? Absolutely crazy around the mid -range and canyon pots,” he enthused, with chickens to gaffers offering prime time rod bending, great eating and fond memories. An open boat trip once a week.

Capt. Ray Lopez of Miss Liane Charters said the crew continues to search for tuna, including yellowfin, bluefin, and longfin. Fluke fishing has been excellent, giving anglers plenty of action while the crew searches for the offshore tuna bite. Capt. Ray is optimistic about September, expecting the offshore fishery to really come alive once weather conditions settle into a more favorable pattern. He believes the month could offer some outstanding opportunities for anglers looking to chase tuna and other offshore species. Miss Liane Charters also has a few open-boat trips available.
