Nine Mile Bank

Nine Mile Bank is one of the most famous offshore fishing spots in San Diego, located roughly nine miles west of Point Loma. This underwater bank rises from deeper water, creating structure and current breaks that attract yellowtail, tuna, dorado, and other pelagic species. During peak seasons, this area can produce fast action for trolling, live bait, and surface iron fishing. Nine Mile Bank is a staple destination for sport boats and private vessels targeting offshore game fish. Depth changes and temperature breaks make it a consistent producer throughout the year.
