Salty Cape 2017 Trailer

White and other light colored pencil poppers have been effective during the early morning topwater bite between the car bridges, mainly due to the big squid that sometimes have tubes up to 10 to 12-inches long, with some sharpies also super loading Cotton Cordell pencils with as much as four to six ounces of lead to make them swim subsurface.

The action has been excellent with most boats choosing to head to the BC Buoy and Regal Sword rather than the offshore canyons. There have been a good number of fish in the 600 to 800-pound class hooked up and caught, with Christian Giardini reporting the larger fish this week topped the 1,050-pound mark dressed out. Meat has been the way to go for the larger fish, with skirted ballyhoo the top choice. There are also good numbers of smaller tuna falling to splasher bars and plugs or , but most everyone is jazzed up by the big fish. Should be an interesting weekend, with many shops warning that these fish are moving north to south and could leave town due to a front or bait migration
