EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO

TEMPERATURES: High of 90 with a low of 60. Some wind in the afternoon.
STRIPED MARLIN - More and more being seen each day.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Fair catches at Cabo Pulmo.
DORADO - More flags seem to be appearing each day, with most still being
found around the shark buoys.
ROOSTERFISH - Some quality fish in front of both hotels.
JACK CREVALLE - Good catches from both the pontoon boat and the shore.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few scattered here and there.
PARGO AND CABRILLA -Punta Colorada and Las Barracas producing good catches.
.. OFFSHORE: Billfish, dorado, tuna and even an occasional wahoo are keeping
the folks on the cruisers happy.
.. INSHORE: With the exception of the windy conditions on Thurs. afternoon
(5/10), it has been great for roosters, jacks, pargo and now a few pompano
are beginning to show.
.. BEACH: Concentrations of sardinia up and down the beach are driving the
roosters and jacks crazy. And anglers, too!
.. QUICK COMMENT - Both the beach and the pontoon boat, in the words of Baja
on the Fly guide Jeff DeBrown, are awesome. I was out on the beach in front
of La Ribera this morning and there were roosters as far as you could see
down the beach feeding on sardina. I am not sure what else was mixed in with
them, but I did catch a halibut underneath one bait ball. The pontoon boat
fly-fishers in front of the hotels near the bait boat are having a blast
with roosters, jacks, pompano
and even a 30 pound pargo yesterday.
