MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed July 11, 2001
Temperatures: 84-degree high; low in the mid 60s. Partly cloudy skies.
MARLIN – Several marlin spotted and one reported caught by a passing yacht
DORADO – As the water warms up the fish are starting to come into the area several reported caught this week.
TUNA - Few reported.
YELLOWTAIL – Good catches reported under the kelp paddies.
CORVINA – Good action through out the bay this week.
SNOOK - Good catches continue in some of the esteros at Almejas Bay.
HALIBUT – Still a pretty good bet at the Boca’s or sand beaches.
.. QUICK COMMENT – Offshore is starting to heat up with scattered reports of marlin, dorado and yellowtail beginning to filter in. Time to start checking the shark buoys and looking for kelp paddies that may be holding fish. Find the right shark buoy and cast a chartreuse deceiver and let it sink for twenty seconds and hang on when your fly gets slammed by a good sized dorado.
