http://www.hmbfishing.comToday was the first of our limited load rockfishing Wednesdays. Lots of room at the rail, lots of room on the decks, only a handful of coolers...pretty nice for one of our more popular days of the week. The deeper water just keeps cranking out big giant reds, coppers and brownies. We can't do better than limits of those fish, and we're not going to kill rockfish we can't keep to try to see if we can add a few lings, so, with limits in hand of mostly bombers, we were heading back to the dock a little before noon. We'll be running limited load rockfish trips on Wednesdays through the end of July, so make reservations early if you're interested in grabbing a spot on one of these trips. What's "limited load" mean? Well...The Queen of Hearts is licensed for 45 people, but we usually keep our trips to no more than 35 anglers. The "limited load" trips are limited to no more than 25 people, which gives a lot more elbow room at the rail and on the decks on one of our more popular days of the week. The cost on these trips is $65 per person.
Report Date:
Limits in the morning, limits in the evening...life is good. Capt. Bob ran the boat in the morning down below Pigeon Point and found the fish biting and ending the day with easy limits. Capt. Randy ran the boat in the afternoon, leaving the dock a little after 3:15 and heading back with limits for all 22 onboard just a little after 6:45, giving him plenty of time to get back well before dusk. We'll be offering afternoon rockfishing trips......
