Coastal Fishing Heats Up: Tuna Offshore, Halibut Inshore

The water is warming and the fishing is heating up along the coastline! Bluefin tuna are being caught by those willing to put in the time and find warm water. Fish have been caught anywhere from Monterey to The Farallones. On the inshore waters, halibut, lingcod, and rockfish are in peak season. I recently took my kayak out in Santa Cruz County and had some good action on halibut in 40-60 feet of water. I was trolling a bounce ball setup in fairly clear water and the big fish of the day was this fat 40" halibut (pictured). Video from the day is live on Youtube!
