Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
EAST CAPE AND MAGDALENA BAY FISHING CONDITIONS
Sat., Feb. 09, 2002
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
IN GENERAL: The weather has cleared up as far as the cloudy skies, but the
wind is still a problem. It has been very windy the last few days. The
wind has been less in the morning, but is kicking by about 10. The temps
have risen slightly to 59 - 73.
.. OFFSHORE: Several boats did make it out including one of our clients,
Wister Smith, from Scottsboro, Ala., who caught a rooster and sierra before
the wind came rolling in by mid-morning. A couple of other boats fishing up
toward Punta Pescadero did pretty well catching a handful of dorado
.. INSHORE: A few dorado and sierra and roosterfish closer to shore.
.. BEACH: Wind waves continue to hamper fishing from the beach.
AIR & SEA: Finally, a few warmer days.
BILLFISH - No one targeted them this week.
YELLOWFIN TUNA - Slow.
DORADO - Not bad for February if the wind backs off.
ROOSTERFISH - They are still here.
JACK CREVALLE - Wait till the wind quits.
BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Not targeted this week.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Structure not a bad bet. With all the wind, find a
sheltered point up toward Punta Pescadero and try one of your favorite
poppers or Clouser.
SIERRA - Still the best action at East Cape.

Sat., Feb. 09, 2002
.. IN GENERAL: With more and more whales arriving every day, the focus this
week has been on the whale watching more than the fishing.
AIR & SEA: 71 - 62 with some scattered clouds and wind in the afternoon.
YELLOWTAIL - Best bet is out at the entrada.
CORVINA - Good action up in the esteros, mostly smaller fish to three pounds
with an occasional lunker showing up.
SNOOK - Not wide open, but good enough to keep your attention.
HALIBUT - Slow retrieved Clouser on a sandy bottom producing good action.
SIERRA - The birds will point the way and don't forget wire bite tippet.
