International Yellowtail Derby - San Diego

The International Yellowtail Derby is set to start on September 26 and run for 8 days of fishing and on the ninth day the winners will be awarded on Oct 4. 




San Diego has a long history of fishing and is a Mecca for saltwater anglers. They travel from all over the USA to come here for the exceptional opportunity to fish not only the San Diego waters but to go to the fishing grounds off the renowned Baja California Coast aboard on of the Long Range Sportfishers at the San Diego Landings.
The objective is to have a World Class fishing tournament. This will bring back the same enthusiasm as the remembered Yellowtail Derby of the 50s and 60s. It will include both private boaters and the famous San Diego Open Party fleet. It will also feature a professional world class media center with Press Releases before, during and after each day with results and stories.

Sportfishing Destination Review: Destin, FL

Destin, FL is one of the greatest sportfishing destinations in the United States, and the number of fishing charters in the area proves it.  Located in between Pensacola and Panama City (Florida) and directly on the Gulf of Mexico, Destin introduces anyone to what could be called, "Fishing Paradise.  Charters do both inshore, deepsea and saltwater fly fishing trips, but the most common trips seem to be directed toward tuna, sailfish, grouper, mahi mahi and the like.  It is important to do your research when going on a charter trip to make sure you are going to get your money's worth, and not just a trip around the jeti at the end of the peir.  Take some time, read reviews and focus a little energy on making sure you will actually have to expel some while reeling in your trophy fish.
