Capt. Gary Graham
August 8, 2001
Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., Aug. 08, 2001
TEMPERATURES: High of 92 with a low of 80. Some wind in the afternoon.
STRIPED MARLIN - Slow action this week.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Below and outside of Punta Colorada produced the best
action under the porpoise.
DORADO A few larger fish found under the shark buoys.
ROOSTERFISH -Best early morning and mid afternoon in front of La Ribera.
JACK CREVALLE - Mostly smaller fish this week.
BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Slow.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - No one targeted them this week.
.. OFFSHORE: The best word to describe the last few days is “slow.” There
was
good tuna action one day, but the next day no one could find them.
.. INSHORE: Roosterfish, jacks and sierra were the best bet for the inshore
crowd.
.. BEACH: La Ribera is best bet right now for roosters and sierra.
.. QUICK COMMENT - The Grunke group from Arizona had fair fishing offshore A
few tuna to 60 pounds, one large dorado and a striped marlin was their catch
for the week.
Be sure to see our Catch of the Week. The photo is one of my best and is
with
my latest digital camera with a special housing that allows me to shoot
underwater.

.. QUICK COMMENT
– Well, it is done and is at the printers. My new book
should
be available in early Sept. It’s called Gary Graham's No Nonsense Guide to
Fly Fishing Magdalena Bay.
Word of a giant fish paradise on Southern Baja's sparsely inhabited Pacific
side has been seeping out for years. Now, guide and excursion leader Gary
Graham (Baja On the Fly) lays out the truth -- and is it ever fascinating.
Magdalena Bay is wide open for fly-fishing for highly prized snook in
mangrove-lined estuaries to offshore marlin; plus observing gray whales from
Alaska calving, exotic birds, kayaking, and even surfing. Fish, explore and
photograph the real West Coast of Baja California Sur before the inevitable
tourism and resorts take their toll. With photos, illustrations, maps,
Spanish phrases, fly-fishing terms, travel and fishing information, this is
the Bible for this unique region.
