Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report

It's an Ill Wind
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Sat., April 07, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 81 with a low of 59.
STRIPED MARLIN - More being seen, but are not very aggressive.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Still hit or miss. The area between Cabo Pulmo and Las
Frailles under the porpoise produced the best catches.
DORADO – Slow.
ROOSTERFISH - Wind yesterday slowed action down.
JACK CREVALLE - A few fish up to 20 pounds are hanging out in front of the
hotels when the wind isn't blowing.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few of the boats found some in front of
Las Frailes.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Fair near-shore action at Rancho Buena Vista, Punta
Colorada or Cerro Verde.
.. OFFSHORE: Boats are reporting more sightings with little action.
.. INSHORE: Wind for the last two days slowed the action down.
.. BEACH: A few small roosters, ladyfish, sierra and some fair-sized jacks
early morning and late afternoon in front of the hotels.
.. QUICK COMMENT - Just when we think the wind has gone away, it comes back
with a vengeance and reminds us that there are some things we can't control.
Yvonne and I are off this morning to Tucson, Ariz., to Orvis dealer Dry
Creek Outfitters for a day of talking about Baja Saltwater Fly Fishing.
MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Sat., April 07, 2001
Temperatures: 76-degree high; low 61.
TUNA - With all the red crabs you would think the action would be
gangbusters.
YELLOWTAIL - Use your shooting head and a Baja Deep Diver. Let the line
sink for a week and you may get a grab from a hungry yellowtail with an
attitude.
CORVINA - The deeper channels throughout the esteros (estuaries) are your
best bet.
SNOOK - Try an outgoing tide and let your line sink and go with the current
and hope the take is a snook and not a cabrilla.
HALIBUT - For a no-brainer, find a sandy bottom and let your olive Clouser
sink. Retrieve it very s-l-o-w-l-y and don't forget to strip strike on the
take.
.. QUICK COMMENT - This is that time of year when you never know what’s going
to try to take that $5 fly away from you. This time of year let your line
sink and be swept back into the channel and then retrieve slowly for the
best action.
New Thanksgiving Trip Added
Due to unprecedented demand and a desire by more people to catch a marlin on a flyrod than we imagined possible, we have added an
additional trip to our Magdalena Bay series this Fall.
This trip is limited to 6 clients and will be hosted by Jeff Solis of San
Diego Fly Shop. If you are interested in joining us, November 19th – 25th, please
contact us immediately. Based on preliminary interest, we anticipate this
trip will fill up fast.
