Baja Mexico: Magdalena Bay, Baja Sur & East Cape.
Capt. Gary Graham

Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
Beach and Inshore are Hot
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., May 02, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 84 with a low of 64. Flat calm, partly cloudy to
cloudy skies with little wind.
STRIPED MARLIN - Lots of sleepers being seen a fair distance, about 40 - 50
miles, from the hotels.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Underneath the porpoise have been producing fair catches.
DORADO - A few scattered fish, but few groups.
ROOSTERFISH - Early morning from the shore in front of La Ribera has been
good.
JACK CREVALLE - A few good-sized fish are hanging out in front of our house
at La Capilla.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few scattered here and there.
PARGO AND CABRILLA -Punta Colorada continues to be the best action.
.. OFFSHORE: Blue water is being found in both to the north and to the east.
The problem is that it is 40 - 50 miles out and the fish are not real
aggressive. I suspect they are filling up on the squid in the area.
.. INSHORE: This is the best bet for now with lots of roosters to 50 pounds,
sierra, toro, cabrilla and a few quality pargo.
.. BEACH: I have fished the beach in front of La Ribera for the last few days
in the
early morning and have caught small roosters and jack every day before 8
a.m.
.. QUICK COMMENT - Danny and Luanna Foster, Anchorage Alaska, along with
Connie Devlieger had a disappointing day chasing tuna under the porpoise.
With the porpoise moving fast, and the tuna not coming up on the chum, it
was difficult
to get them to grab a fly. Back on the pontoon boat, they had a great day
with
Connie catching her best rooster of her trip, a 12 pounder that inhaled
her olive Clouser. Mary Fedorka, Telluride, Colo., landed a good-sized pargo
near Punta Colorada fishing with her husband Buz on the pontoon boat on Mon.
MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., May 02, 2001
Temperatures: 76-degree high; low in the mid 60's. Fair skies with little
wind.
TUNA – Slow.
YELLOWTAIL - Only action seemed to be out at the Thetis bank.
CORVINA - Just a few here and there.
SNOOK - Several fish at Mario's spot.
HALIBUT - Not bad near the sandy beaches.
.. QUICK COMMENT - The wind has backed off and the fishing should begin to
improve in the upcoming weeks.
