.. BEACH: From the lighthouse to La Ribera was great early morning

Saturday, August 18, 2001
Temperatures: 86-degree high; low 73. cloudy
MARLIN – Best action reported was 15 – 20 miles west of the entrada.
DORADO – Same area as the marlin produced good catches
TUNA – Plenty of action on football sized fish several miles west of the Thetis Bank.
YELLOWTAIL – Still a fair bite at the Thetis Bank
CORVINA – Good catches reported up by the Power Plant.
SNOOK – Devils Curve produced several larger snook this week .
HALIBUT – Sand beaches on Magdalena Island are your best bet.
.. QUICK COMMENT – Both the inshore and offshore picked up this week. The marlin and dorado were close enough for even the panga fisherman this week. The Punta Redonda area produced some quality grouper and pargo. The best action was close to the shore using a 300 grain shooting head and a Chartreuse Baja Deep Diver with a slow retrieve.
