Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
Adios Easter Bunny, Hello Roosters!
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., April 18, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 86 with a low of 62. No wind for two days.
STRIPED MARLIN - Not much to talk about locally.
YELLOWFIN TUNA – Just a few here and there.
DORADO - Same as the tuna. Just a few.
ROOSTERFISH - Great!
JACK CREVALLE - A few small fish are hanging out in front of the
hotels.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few of the boats found some Punta
Colorada to Cabo Pulmo.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Good in all the usual spots.
.. OFFSHORE: Flat, calm conditions, but little action so far.
.. INSHORE: With decent weather, the fishing has improved tremendously.
.. BEACH: We’re starting to see a few jacks and small roosters on the beach
between Rancho Buena Vista and Buena Vista Beach Resort.
.. QUICK COMMENT - What a difference a day or two makes. The last two days
have been good, bordering on very good. Guest Russ Burken, fishing with his
family, committed a nearly unpardonable sin by catching his first rooster on
his second cast. Using an olive deep diver in front of the Buena Vista Beach
Hotel near the bait panga, he nailed it with a slow erratic retrieve. Dr.
Bob Corbett and his son Tom, from Seattle, Wash., had an equally good day
fishing from a super panga. Jeff DeBrown guided them to double digit
roosterfish on the fly as well as sierra, jacks and pargo. We are glad the
Easter Bunny is gone. Bring on the roosters!
MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., April 17, 2001
Temperatures: 72-degree high; low 57. Fair skies.
TUNA - Not much is happening.
YELLOWTAIL - A few fish down deep.
CORVINA - Find a deep hole in one of the channels and fish it on an outgoing
tide using one of Bob Popovic's Jiggies in gray and white.
SNOOK - No one targeted them this week.
HALIBUT - Best action near Punta Belcher
.. QUICK COMMENT - Warmer weather prevailed this week and the fishing has
improved. The best bet was the halibut near Punta Belcher.
