Saturday, August 18, 2001

TEMPERATURES: High of 93 with a low of 80. Wind and rain on Friday and cloudy Saturday.

STRIPED MARLIN – Good catches on Wednesday

YELLOWFIN TUNA – Larger fish underneath the porpoise outside of Cabo Pulmo

DORADO – Slowed down somewhat this week.

ROOSTERFISH –Good catches at La Ribera.

JACK CREVALLE – Big schools cruising up and down the beaches from Punta Arena to Rancho Buena Vista.

BARRILLETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK – A few scattered outside of La Ribera.

PARGO AND CABRILLA – In front of Punta Colorada produced a few this week.

.. OFFSHORE: Action for billfish picked up midweek

.. INSHORE: Dorado and roosterfish provided the best action midweek

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

.. QUICK COMMENT - Offshore the billfish action was great on Wednesday and then on Friday we had a storm come through that prevented most of the boats from getting out. Russell and Janis Sylvester from Elliot Me had great fishing on the pontoon for roosters and managed to land a handful.

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.
