Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
Things are Definitely Brighter
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., March 21, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 84 with a low of 54.
STRIPED MARLIN - Slow.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Still a long run to get to them.
DORADO - A few dorado throughout the bay.
ROOSTERFISH - Mostly smaller fish close to shore.
JACK CREVALLE - A few small fish are hanging in front of the hotels.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Fair catches below Los Frailies.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Good near shore at Punta Colorada or Cerro Verde.
.. OFFSHORE: While the water seems to be warming up slowly, unfortunately the
best offshore action is still several hours away.
.. INSHORE: Small jacks and sierra continue to provide fair action close to
shore.
.. BEACH: A few small roosters and jacks early morning and late afternoon.
.. QUICK COMMENT - While not wide open, we are finding a few skipjack and
tuna a couple of hours from the hotels. And recent visitor Dr. Karl R.
Beutner, from Vallejo, Calif., wrote, “We had a great time fishing three
days with light to moderate action on tuna, sierra, dorado, white bonito,
roosters and a few
pargo.”
Yvonne (who broke her foot during the San Mateo show) is sporting a new
walking cast and we are headed for Phoenix for the International Sportsman's
Expo beginning Thurs., March 22. I will be presenting my Baja on the Fly
program 5 p.m. Thurs.; 2 p.m. Fri., 23; and 11 a.m. Sun., 25. Stop by and
say hello if you attend the show.
MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., March 21, 2001
Temperatures: 75-degree high; low 59.
TUNA - Pretty quiet.
YELLOWTAIL - Entrada (the entrance) is still the best bet.
CORVINA - Few reported this week up toward Devil's Curve.
SNOOK - Slow going this week with only a few anglers out.
HALIBUT - Continue to be the best bet for the fly rodder.
.. QUICK COMMENT - You have several choices: head out to the entrada and try
your luck with the yellowtail or head into the mangroves and catch plenty of
bay bass, halibut and maybe a snook or two.
