Fishing Report: Dynamic Week at The Arch, Lighthouse, and 1150
Location: The Arch and Lighthouse, 1150
Weather Conditions:
Forecast: Promising sunny days with clear skies.
Temperature: Highs in the 90s, lows in the 70s.
Wind: Southward wind continues along the Pacific, calmer conditions in the Sea of Cortez due to wind shadow.
Species Highlights:
Striped Marlin: We have been catching them from the lighhouse, offshore from the arch and down the 95 and 1150. Lots of Marlin right now with the first heatwave of the season warming up the water.
Amberjack, Yellowtail, Jack Crevalle: We continue to catch these jigging on the shallow spots, and rock piles
Roosterfish: Excellent fishing continues along the coast in front of Playa Grande and Solmar, extending from the Pedregal cliff and up the coast.
sierra: great for ceviche lots of them still around inshore up the pacific shore in cooler waters.
Mahi Mahi: They are starting to move in with the warmer waters
Additional Notes: Inshore areas remain a hotspot for Roosterfish, with Sierra Mackerel being commonly spotted. Additionally, there are plenty of Marlin in the area, with several caught per day being more common. The experienced crews of Fin Chaser Sportfishing are prepared to navigate these changing conditions, ensuring an unparalleled fishing experience for our guests. .
Weekly Tips:
Early Departure: Get the freshest bait by setting off early from the Marina.
Bait Rigging: Medium-sized, live baits are the key to enticing those elusive catches.
Tackle Maintenance: Keep your gear in prime condition for the best chance at a high catch rate.
Prepare for a memorable week on the waters of Cabo San Lucas, where every cast is an opportunity for an unforgettable catch. 🌊🐟✨
