The BIG GAME 90 departed on their last long trip of the season yesterday evening on the annual    Western Outdoor News charter. They are now headed to Guadalupe but are keeping their eyes open for kelps. So far this morning they have caught a few tuna and some yellows off kelps and caught 2 albies on jig strikes. They will arrive at the Island sometime after dark and begin looking for some yellows in the dark. We will keep you posted
 
Remember the boat will begin running 2 1/2 day trips from Long Beach Marina on November the 6th. They will be spending part of the trip at San Nick for the great Ling Cod & Red fishing  (OKUMA) will be giving a reel to the person catching the largest ling on each trip.
 
 The Cortez and Tanner banks will get looked at too for the yellows and tuna.

Recreational Fishing in the Pacific Ocean is in Peril

Anti-recreational fishing groups seek to ban recreational fishing in pending Pacific Ocean marine protected area designations

 


The Situation

In spite of President George W. Bush’s recent memo and an Executive Order which clarified that recreational fishing should be sustained in marine protected area designations, recreational fishing opponents are intensively lobbying the White House and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to ban recreational fishing in vast areas of the Central Pacific Ocean.

 


This sets a dangerous precedent regarding recreational fishing in any federal waters, saltwater or fresh, which the Executive Order and Executive Memo was designed to protect. 

 


Please act now! Your help is needed to support recreational fishing in the Pacific today and on your coastline in the future. 

 

To maintain recreational fishing in the Pacific Ocean and all federal waters, we are asking you to tell the White House and NOAA to stay the course and uphold the President’s decision regarding recreational fishing.

 


SEND YOUR MESSAGE NOW!

The White House is taking public comment until October 26, 2008. As a recreational angler, please do your part to bring balance to this process.

 

Click here to send a message to the White House Council on Environmental Quality and NOAA in support of recreational fishing. In a matter of seconds they will receive your message.

 


Thank you very much for doing your part to Keep America Fishing.

 


Background

Contrary to an August 25, 2008, Presidential Memo and a September 26, 2008, Presidential Executive Order directing federal agencies to sustain recreational fishing in federal marine protected areas and all federal waters, anti-recreational fishing groups are seeking to have recreational fishing banned in vast areas of the Central Pacific Ocean. This is a dangerous precedent to set in any U.S waters, marine or fresh. 

 

Even though regulated recreational fishing presents no threat to fish stocks in these areas and there is no evidence that recreational fishing is harming the ecosystem, many environmental groups are lobbying the White House and federal agencies to adopt their anti-recreational fishing philosophy regarding Pacific Ocean conservation.

 


These groups have mounted a letter writing campaign to convince senior officials in the White House and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that recreational fishing should be banned in thousands of square miles in the Central Pacific. They say: “Unfortunately, the final designation of these areas may allow some fishing…” and that “Declaring these monuments as fully-protected no-take reserves… is crucial for meaningful stewardship of our imperiled oceans.” 

 


On September 26, 2008, President Bush signed an amendment to the 1995 Executive Order on recreational fishing. This amendment directs that federal agencies must maintain recreational fishing on federal lands and waters, including marine protected areas. The Executive Order revises Executive Order 12962 signed in 1995 by President Bill Clinton.

 


The August 25, 2008, Executive Memo signed by the President set the stage for the new Executive Order. The memo directed the Secretaries of Defense, Interior and Commerce and the Chairman of the Council on Environmental Quality to sustain access to recreational fishing as part of their study of potential marine protected areas (MPA) in the Central Pacific Ocean.

Mike’s report about guadalupe tuna fishing

October 20, 2008  //  Posted by: Mike  //  Category: big game 90, fish reports, fishing reports

Good morning ;

We returned last evening from our DOC SKI 6 1/2 charter to Guadalupe Island.

This trip went very well. The weather was great the fish bit and you couldn’t find a better group of passengers.

We concentrated on the tuna most of the trip and ended up with 161 fish of witch the largest was 93.6lbs.We also had 42 yellowtail. 

We had several wahoo bites but didn’t land any it seemed the skinniness knew witch baits where on wire and stayed away from them.

Doc is already planning next years trip.

We are at the dock for a few days for a much needed rest but will be out again this weekend on a 1 1/2 day departing Friday night.(we still have room on this trip) Then next Monday we depart on our last trip of the season from San Diego.

 

Beginning Thursday night the 6th of November we will running trips departing from Long Beach Marina. We have 2 1/2 day trips departing on Thursday night each week fishing the outer banks for tuna and yellowtail and of course the great rock fishing. Check out our schedule or call the office for more info on these trips or next years trips.

 

thats all I have to say about this.

 See you on the BIG GAME 90

ONE MORE WEEK OF TUNA AND ALBACORE

October 12, 2008  //  Posted by: Mike  //  Category: big game 90, fish reports, fishing reports, san diego fish reports

Good Sunday morning:

 

All is well aboard the BIG GAME. It has been a full week.

We started a 5 1/2 last Sunday afternoon. We decided to take a look at the tuna area off of San Martin  for the first day of the trip and found not only yellowfin tuna but 17 nice fat albacore and some yellowtail and 2 bluefin.

Tuesday morning found us on the beach about 200 miles south of San Diego catching some quality yellows. After the current slacked off we went looking along the kelp line for whatever we could catch and spent the day catching every thing you could imation. yellows, reds, lings cuda, bonito, MORE yellows,even a couple of small blacks that where released. 

That night we made the move to Guadalupe. The move was a good one.

We had 97 yellowfin on Wednesday and 25 on Thursday along with a marlin.

 

We are now on our 2nd day of a 2 day trip that departed Friday evening and despite very tough conditions we managed to capture 87 mixed fish yesterday even 2 albacore.

We will be departing Monday after noon on a 6 1/2 day.

We will keep you posted.

P. S.

MARK MY WORDS

WITH GOOD WEATHER THE NEXT 2 WEEKS MORE AND MORE ALBACORE WILL BE CAUGHT.

We have a 2 1/2 day trip departing Thursday night the 23rd. and we will be in search of the allusive albi.

 

GIVE THE OFFICE A CALL TO BOOK THIS LAST TRIP FROM SAN DIEGO OR ONE OF THE NOVEMBER TRIPS DEPARTING FROM LONG BEACH
