Long Range Sport Fishing Code of Ethics

To encourage responsible angling practices and promote a positive image of our sport, the participating long range vessels listed have adopted the following standards:

Minimum Sizes:

Yellowtail 28 inches
Dorado 28 inches
Grouper 28 inches (2 per angler)
Yellowfin Tuna 24 inches

All Sailfish, and Black, Blue or Striped Marlin will be released except in the case of obvious mortality.

Mexican fishing regulations allow for a total limit of THIRTY fish on voyages of three days or more in length, with no more than FIFTEEN of any one species. Dorado is an exception with a total of SIX per voyage counting as FIFTEEN towards your total limit of THIRTY. While the above listed size is not actual laws or regulations, we respectfully request your understanding and compliance with a perspective towards a vision of the future of long range sportfishing. We encourage you to take responsibly and practice catch and release thereafter. Good luck, good fishing and thank you from the San Diego Long Range Fishing Fleet.
