The fishing in Cape Cod Bay has been crazy good. We are finding stripe bass from 23 inches up to 41 inches. In Mass we have a slot rule so in order to take home a bass, it has to be between 28 inches and under 31 inches.
We have been jigging or as I like to say, Cape Cod Cardio, on the shoals. This has been producing the best results. The jigging can be challenging however when the line go tight, all is forgotten. Just last week we were able to knock off a bucket list request and he...

hit for his first stripe bass which was 33 inches. A nice photo shoot and back it went In to the water.
The bluefish have also just arrived and that is starting to pick up too.
If you are looking for some great fishing, please reach out and we can make it happen.

Crabbing has been great lately! Bottom fishing for salmon is slowing down, but it's not too early to start booking for spring Chinook in Tillamook bay, starting in May!

The local inshore fishing has been excellent this last week with Halibut to 28 pounds. Lots of sharks (Leopards to 46 pounds) lots of guitar fish and Spotted Bay Bass and big Sand Bass. Off shore the Bluefin on overnight and especially 1.5 day trips has been good for 100 pound plus units. Lots of kelps holding 8-12 pound Yellowtail as well. Witchy Woman is our 40 knot vessel which can get to those big bluefin on 10-12 hr trips.

Since the Halibut is trending here, we went on an exploratory trip and it paid off! Congrats to my neighbor Clint, with his PB 36lb and long time friend and X co-worker Zack’s very first 14lb’r Haliz! We farmed a few and let them take our hardy baits. All fun first in the morning. One last good ‘ol friend Kai took home a bunch of reds, rockfish, sandbass, calico, and few others. One for the books for sure! Salt Life gear keep us warm and dry throughout the carnage.

Interesting repair work on the water to save the day and bait did not roll one. Sheared bait pump impeller, eel grass wrapped it up and popped it off. Back at it again with another Crew trip tomorrow. Let’s see we can rinse and repeat tomorrow.

Another day, another fishing trip filled with epic catches and waterlogged memories. Miguel hooked a massive halibut that weighed in at a whopping 27 pounds, but unfortunately, it didn't break any records. It probably felt like the second-place finisher at the Olympics, basking in the glory of its silver medal but secretly wishing for gold.
But that's not even the best part! One of our crew members, Miguel again (he's on fire!), caught a Starry rockfish that was a contender for a record weight. It was so close, it could probably smell the record's breath. But alas, it fell short...

by a mere 0.5 pounds. The record was 2.8lbs. So close yet so far!

Ian here at KingTriton Sport Fishing!!! So we got in to the Bluefin this last week before the bite slowed down. Had a few hookups on the Nomad MadMacs 200g Silver Pink stripe. Had a double hook up on yellowtail trolling by a kelp patty that turned in to a pretty good drift for some yellows which was super fun. The weather came up a bit so we plan to get back in to it this following week.

    Trip: Rockfish/Crabbing

  • ★★★★★
    Amazing fishing trip! Shawn and Joe were fantastic. We brought our 8-year son along, and they were incredibly patient with him - even when he was going on and on about Pokemon, lol. The morning started out a little slow, but picked up about 3 hours in. We ended up landing two ono, one right as we were heading back in for the day. They let us keep as much of the fish as we wanted, and we enjoyed grilling it on the beach the next day. We also did some bottom fishing, which was a lot of fun for our son. He got to reel in several interesting little fish and stayed engaged the whole time. Overall, it was a great experience with a friendly, knowledgeable crew. Highly recommend!

    Craig was amazing! I reached out the day before to ask some questions, he responded very quickly and took care of all my questions. We took out our 2 boys (5/7), and Craig was amazing with them. He put us in the right spot, taught us what to do, and the boys did the rest. He pointed us in the right direction as to where to get the crabs cooked, couldn't of asked for more. 100% recommend. We will do again if we're back in the area.

    We had a great trip with Buoy and Chenta. Right on time start in the morning. Buoy is very knowledgeable about all the marine life and both he and Chenta were very observant and were able to locate dolphins and feeding fish. Both my daughter and I were able to reel in Jack Crevalle fish! They also showed us a school of rays we would not have noticed without their observations. We really enjoyed the snorkeling around coral island - the main reason for booking our sea adventure. We also enjoyed the short hike to an observation point. The trip was personalized to us -

    Trip: Coral Island Excursion 🪸

  • ★★★★★
    We had an great experience out on the ocean with this guide. From the start, everything was well-organized and professional, but still laid-back enough to just enjoy the day. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and you could tell the guide really knew the water and where to find fish. We were on fish quickly, and the action stayed steady throughout the trip. The guide was great about helping when needed but also let us do our own thing, which made it even more enjoyable. Whether it was baiting hooks, giving tips, or netting fish, they were right there without overdoing it. What stood out most was the knowledge and effort—they clearly put in the time to make sure we had a successful trip. We ended up bringing home a solid catch and had a great time doing it. Highly recommend this guide if you’re looking for a fun, productive day on the ocean. I’d definitely book again.

    Trip: Salmon, Bottom Fish& Dungeness Crab

  • ★★★★★
    Best way to spend my 40th birthday! We had a blast on the "Toda a Nada". The name says it all, "All or Nothing". Our Captain, Bruce was awesome and really put in the work to make sure we came home with fish in hand. When asked, "about what time does the charter end" his response was, "when we have fish in the boat". That's my kind of Captain! We did just that, pulled in 4 beautiful, hard-fighting, yellowtail. A total of 75 pounds. There was a processor there dock-side who took it straight from the boat to their shop. The next day our fish was cleaned and ready for pick-up. Great experience all around! Highly recommend!
