Baja Sur - Saltwater Fishing Report
EAST CAPE AND MAGDALENA BAY FISHING CONDITIONS
Wed., March 20, 2002
EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
IN GENERAL: I arrived back in the East Cape on Sat. to be greeted by a north
wind which has blown continuously except for a brief respite on Mon.
However, we’re still fishing and catching. Dr. Richard Cambria, visiting
from Boston with his two sons, scored on sierra, a handful of football sized
yellowfin tuna and a couple of dorado. Bob Pizalli, Redwood City, Calif.,
caught jacks and pargo from the beach on a small Sea Habit Sardinia. Bill
Hegberg, from Basalt Colo., using a similar Sea Habit, hung several jacks
from the beach in front of Punta Colorada. Today the wind continues to blow,
though with a little less intensity, and we are hoping to back out fishing
tomorrow. Spring officially arrives around noon today. We can hardly wait.
AIR & SEA:
Sunny
Hi 81°
Lo 65
Wind: N /15 mph
Humidity: 55%
Visibility: 15
Sea Temps: 68 - 72 degrees.
. OFFSHORE: Several large groups of fish found under floating debris.
. INSHORE: Sierra, jacks and roosters at Punta Colorada were the best bet.

BILLFISH - Few boats targeted them this week
YELLOWFIN TUNA - A few footballs showed up with the dorado.
DORADO - Plenty of action when you find some floating debris.
ROOSTERFISH - With all the wind, the water rolled over and is dirty and
cold!
JACK CREVALLE - Both beach an inshore action very good right now.
BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Fair catches from Punta Pescadero to Punta
Arena .
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Rock structure between La Ribera and Punta Colorada
produced fair catches for the persistent angler.
SIERRA - Best action is in front of Scott Glenn’s house. Don't forget the
wire Bite tippet! Watch for the bait schools close to shore.

MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Wed., March 20, 2002
IN GENERAL: For the last six days the weather has been cold and windy.
Today, we have clear skies and no wind. Because of the rough conditions,
very little fishing took place this week. No one was on the outside and
inside only a few halibut and small corvina were taken.
AIR & SEA: Windy and cold until today.
YELLOWTAIL - Slow this week.
CORVINA – Devil’s Curve and the Bridge are holding some smaller fish.
SNOOK - Plenty of fish around in some of the deeper holes up toward Devil’s
Curve.
HALIBUT - Punta Belcher and the sand beaches across from San Carlos yielded
catches of halibut to seven pounds.
SIERRA - Still slow.
