Black Pearl 2 Day report
After discussing our options with the Black Pearl of our weekend destination San Clemente Island held the best prospects, with warmer water and the possibility of making squid to go with our tank of sardine. 12 of us loaded up and motored out with the crew of 4. The grill was turned on and burgers were cooked up. We arrived to SCI before first light, but could not get any squid to go on the jigs. Water temps hovered between 59-61 throughout. Day one we fished Pyramid Cove and found good halibut fishing and shooting,(Dave freediving) a few mystery fish lost and lots of sheephead, whitefish and bass. Wind kicked up a little harder than forecast, but laid down again for the last couple hours of fishing.

We made killer big sardines and mini macks for day 2 fishing. We moved to Horse Cove for day 2 and found the biggest fish of the trip, but less numbers, the calicos were hungry in the kelp. Winds were light with high fog. We fished until 1pm and started loading up for the ride home. Crew worked hard and made the trip fun. Great group to fish with! The Black Pearl trips will only get better as the water warms and the crew gets all the details dialed in. Next trip is May 12,13 and only half full. http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ad.php?t=12642 http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_0428.JPG http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_0421.JPG http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_0418.JPG http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_0426.JPG http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_0414.JPG |

The trip was flat out awesome. I just finished eating a nice piece of fresh halibut. The rest of it is vacuum wrapped and in the freezer. Good times!

Amazing trip! Was able to try halibut fishing from the yak for the first time, hang out with some good people, and enjoy some amazing time on the water. :D
