NOVEMBER IS BRINGING BLUEFIN, YELLOWFIN AND SWORDFISH!

By Bob Vanian of 976Bite.com

•The month of November has already seen the first northern weather system move through

Southern California and it brought strong winds, high seas and a bit of rain. The result was a about a 3 degree drop in the water temperature that brought water temperatures down into the 63-to-65-degree range. The great news is that after the storm boats got back out onto the water and found bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna and swordfish biting despite the drop in the water temperature.

•What will be interesting is to see what happens to the water conditions and the fishing from this point forward as another northern storm front is forecasted to be arriving tonight and bring with it more strong winds, rain and high seas.

Time will tell if this upcoming storm will drop the water temperature enough to send the warm water pelagic species away in search of warmer waters for the winter months. • For the time being, the bluefin tuna fishing remains very good with fish up into the 250-plus pound range remaining a possibility out by San Clemente Island.

Productive areas have been the 381 Spot, the 81 Fathom Spot, the 86 Fathom Spot and the 57

Fathom Spot. Recent days have also seen some bluefin biting 2 to 4 miles inside of the eastern and the middle part of San Clemente Island.

•More good news on the bluefin front is that there have been bluefin to 150 pounds biting at banks within 25 miles of Point Loma at areas such as the 178 Spot, the 9

Mile Bank, the Coronado Canyon, 2 to 5 miles inside of the 224 Spot and 2 to 8 miles from northwest over to southwest of North Island.

•There was a private boater Skipper who was fishing a recent single handed solo trip that reported catching his limit of 2 bluefin tuna out to the southwest of the lower end of the 9 Mile Bank.

Big Bear Lake

From page 9

near the dam will have the most success with slip bobber setups with power bait or live bait at 15 to 18 feet.

Winter fishing also means adjusting your fishing gear. Water-resistant gear is your new best friend. Water-resistant parkas and coats are a must, as the resistance keeps you dry and helps keep you clean. Wear gloves, and when you’re looking for a pair, ensure you find a water-resistant pair but make sure they aren’t bulky. Specialty fishing gloves are thin enough to allow maximum dexterity— a must-have when handling your gear. Finally, make sure you use water-resistant boots to get traction along muddy or snowy shorelines of the lake.

The Big Bear Lake marina officially closed on Oct. 23 and won’t reopen until the Spring, so you’ll have to find a good spot on the shore to fish from. Anglers have a lot of success just off North Shore Drive and Hwy 18 near the dam.

“There is quite a bit of public access in many areas along the North shore and several areas where one can access the lake along the South shore,” said Eberhard. “The marinas typically begin operating the first week of April and continue to do so into November. The public launch ramps open April 1st and continue to operate through November 30th if you have your own boat.”

If you need supplies, bait, or information before you hit the lake, Big Bear Sporting Goods is the location for all things fishing. It was built around the 1930s and was first called the Birdie Hotel, a lodging location for anglers who made the trip to the lake.
