Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
EAST CAPE AND MAGDALENA BAY FISHING CONDITIONS
Wed, Jan. 30, 2002
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
IN GENERAL: Typical weather for this time of year. It is either good for
the wind surfers or the anglers and it was just about half and half this
week. A few decent days on the beach and then the wind came back. Plenty of
dorado and a fair show of tuna. There were even a few blues caught this
week.
Yvonne and I arrived in San Mateo to begin the International Sportsman's
Exposition (ISE) Show today (1/30) through Sun. We will be in booth 1430, so
stop by and say hello if you are anywhere in the Bay Area. Gary will be
doing presentations in the Fly-Fishing Theater at the following times:
Thurs., 1:30; Fri., 4:30; also Wed., 8:00 in the Fly Tying Video Theater
demonstrating Baja Big Game Patterns. Yvonne will be moderating an
International Women's Flyfishing Panel in the Fly-Fishing Theater to be
followed by a board meeting. Be sure to check the ISE program for last
minute schedule changes. See you there.
.. OFFSHORE: A few good days.
.. INSHORE: Early mornings are the best bet with good dorado and tuna
catches.
.. BEACH: There was a rumor of a few yellowtail in front of Palmas de Cortez.
AIR & SEA: A pleasant 76 during the day, but you will need a sweatshirt or
more for
the 56 degree evenings.
BILLFISH - A few surprises with a couple of blues.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Pretty good this week.
DORADO - Shark buoys the best.
ROOSTERFISH - Not bad for the smaller fish.
JACK CREVALLE - Rancho Leonero and La Ribera beaches the best bet.
BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - A few here and there.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Try floating line and a popper.
SIERRA - Still good action inshore, along the beach and don't forget to use
a
wire tippet both from the beach and inshore.
