Baja Mexico: Magdalena Bay, Baja Sur & East Cape.

Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
Beach Looks Like a Hen House With all the Roosters
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., August 01, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 91 with a low of 72. Strong wind yesterday afternoon
with overcast skies.
STRIPED MARLIN - Off of Punta Pescadero produced a few.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Below and outside of Las Frailes produced a few whoppers
under the porpoise.
DORADO - Mainly larger fish in open water. Not much action under the shark
buoys.
ROOSTERFISH -Still good inshore action early morning and mid-afternoon
in front of La Ribera and Rancho Leonero.
JACK CREVALLE - The bigger fish are seen close to the beach at Punta Arena.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few in front of La Ribera.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Heard reports of a few larger ones up near Isla
Cerralvo.
.. OFFSHORE: Several blues over 300 were caught this week. Naturally, they
were landed after the Bisbee Tournament. Some tuna to 150 pounds rounded
out the action offshore.
.. INSHORE: Roosterfish, jacks and sierra provided good action for those who
elected to stay close to shore and take advantage of the bite.
.. BEACH: Seems like you can walk down on almost any beach and have some good
action catching fish to 10 pounds.
.. QUICK COMMENT - It is beginning to sound like a broken record, but the
beach is pretty spectacular in my opinion. Guide Chris Sorenson and I have
had a few days between clients and both of us have been scoring on multiple
roosters to 15 pounds early morning. This morning I had four before 8 a.m.,
all on a See-Through Deceiver. Chris lost the largest he has ever hooked and
estimated it to be well over 30 pounds.
See our Catch of the Week.

MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., August 01, 2001
Temperatures: 86-degree high; low 70.
MARLIN - More coming into the area every week.
DORADO - They are in the same area as the marlin.
TUNA - Still little to report.
YELLOWTAIL - No one really targeting them right now.
CORVINA - Consistently good throughout the bay.
SNOOK - Fair to good in most of the stock spots.
HALIBUT - Out near the entrada there seems to be a concentration feeding on
red crab.
.. QUICK COMMENT – Aha! An orange shrimp Clouser did the trick with the
halibut at the entrada. In the esteros, the tried-and-true chartreuse
Clouser
continued to produce the best action on a variety of species including
snook,
corvina and broomtail grouper.
