Fishing has been pretty lousy the last few weeks out of Westport and Ilwaco, but pretty good south of us, so fish are on their way.

Last Friday Netflix released "Battlefish", an Ilwaco based tuna show produced by the makers of Wicked Tuna.

Our buddies on the Opportunaty are the stars of the show- if you ever want to see real pros stack the deck, now is your chance.

People always ask me what is the best month to fish and I say September or October, as we have had bad Julys and bad Augusts, but never a bad September..

We are booked out, but Kevin Newell has a lot of open dates.

He fishes a bad ass, 50 knot, 36' Yellowfin out of Astoria Oregon, and stops by Ilwaco every morning to load up on live bait.

When we were down last year he took a bunch of our clients out and they all had a great time and caught a lot of fish.

Get in touch with Kevin now if you want to book a trip now.

Our crew drove a long, long way to fish today, so we had to get it done.

After a slow start, we had bait stop after bait stop.

We slid on lots of jumpers and even had a very good troll bite.
