Here at Fishdope we have one purpose: to help you “Catch More fish, Burn Less Fuel”
Saving fuel may be easier than you think. Let’s say, for example, you want to get into the good yellowfin tuna fishing that is 45 miles from Point Loma, San Diego. The fish have been working up the line closer to San Diego all week. You plan your trip over the course of the workweek until finally, Friday rolls around. As you head down to the launch ramp you check Fishdope one last time and see that the bite has moved. A strong southerly flow has pushed the pocket of water that is holding the fish northwest. You write down the fishing GPS numbers. You quickly check the Southern California fishing chart interface and plan a new route, which is easy to do because the hot bite fish icon is already on the chart at the exact location where the fish are being caught. You plot your course and you are off. Instead of wasting valuable time and expensive fuel searching for the fish while you are on the water, you drive straight to them. Now you have more time to catch the fish and have burned less fuel doing it.
The daily Southern California fishing reports chart cover, Santa Barbara, Channel Islands, Catalina Island, San Clemente Island, Los Angeles, Dana Point, Oceanside, San Diego, Coronado Islands, Ensenada, San Quintin, inshore, offshore, and everywhere in between. If there is a bite going on we’ve got the dope!
