Tour info
Why take this tour?
Our offshore fishery will consist of searching out the ocean for kelp paddies that can hold yellowtail and Dorado and at times, yellowfin tuna. These paddies give us the chance to find fish that are holding in the upper water column.
On these offshore trips we will be fishing rods that are 10wt up to 13wt, depending on what species and size we are targeting.
All Mako trips include all fly rods, leaders and flies, chum, teasers. No need to bring anything!
