East Cape - Lemonade
Wow, our weather has been a tiny bit up and down and I really thought fall was going to finally arrive. Hurricane Patricia blew up in a hurry and became the largest in recorded history. The storm hit land just below Puerto Vallarta and fell apart as quickly as she arrived. We had no effects other than a couple of days of north wind. The wind from the north seemed a little bizarre considering our threat was coming from the south. In any event our water temp that had dropped a couple of degrees is back up to 86+ and even though air temps are dropping summer conditions are persisting on the water.
The bite certainly has not been the norm. Dorado have done a complete no show for the season and yellowfin tuna seem to be following their lead right out of sight. We just competed in an invitational tournament with 27 of the top boats in the area. In the 2 day event nobody could manage a 20 lb. dorado or 30 lb. tuna to take home $36,000US so the jackpots rolled to the billfish category. Thankfully, billfish have stayed in the game and was very good as it has been all season.
A few anglers are still arriving with tuna fever and just can't get over it. Most are finding alternatives to tuna and experiencing awesome memories and having a great time. The old saying goes "When you have lemons make lemonade". The Sea of Cortez is without doubt the world's aquarium. Anglers that are getting off the tuna wagon and looking for other action can't help but get their rod bent and have a memorable experience.
Looking back through photos posted week after week in these reports and on our Facebook page is confirmation that great times are here to be had. Our East Cape season is all but over. Now is a great time to start planning a trip to the East Cape in 2016.
Posted are a few recent photos we captured.
Vaquera will be heading to the always exciting Mag Bay after the Los Cabos Jackpot.
