Tip&Trick Description 1:
Here’s a fishing story.
Four married guys go fishing. After an hour, the following conversation
took place:
First guy:
’You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out fishing this
weekend. I had to promise my wife that I will paint every room in the
house next weekend.’
Second guy:
’That is nothing, I had to promise my wiife that I will build her a new
deck for the pool.’
Third guy:
’Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife that I will
remodel the kitchen for her.’
They continue to fish when they realized that the fourth guy has not
said a word. So they asked him.!
’You haven’t said anything about what you had to do to be able to come
fishing this weekend. What’s the deal?’
Fourth guy:
’I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I shut off my alarm,
gave the wife a nudge and said, ’Fishing or Sex’ and she said, ’Wear a
sweater.’

San Jose del Cabo
April 21, 2013
Anglers
–
Paradise
like weather conditions in Southern Baja is now attracting moderate crowds of
visitors, slack period for tourism, as spring break is over and people are now planning
new adventures. Sunny days, with temperatures in the upper 70s and light winds,
all made for the perfect time to make a trip south.
Ocean
water conditions continue to be fluctuating daily, from favorable warming
trends and then having currents turn around and cool off. Just a week ago we
saw some areas of 75 degrees found offshore, now we are seeing temperatures on
the Pacific side of Cabo San Lucas dip down to 66 degrees and highs of 70
degrees are found in the direction of San Jose del Cabo. There was a couple of
days earlier in the week when the south wind blew and pushed in cooler Pacific waters.
Ocean clarity has remained clean for the most part, despite being cooler than
we would normally expect for this time period.
Striped
marlin action were the main species being found while trolling offshore, though
the fish are more scattered than in previous weeks. Marlin were found in
limited numbers anywhere from 5 to 15 miles from shore, striking lures and
baits, at times they were groups of marlin found feeding, other times anglers reported
blind lure strikes. Only a handful of dorado are being encountered, most of
them under 15 pounds, notably fewer of these fish in the cooler currents. No
yellowfin tuna being reported on the local fishing grounds. Only an occasional
wahoo strike be reported, we will look to see more activity for these sought
after species as ocean temperatures warm back into the mid 70s range.
There
were fair numbers of roosterfish being hooked into while trolling live baits
close to shore, some of the roosters weighed up to 15 lbs., though as water
temps dropped this action also slowed down. Bait supplies consisted of
caballito, moonfish, jacks, chihuil and skipjack. Sardinas continue to not be
available, due to the schools of these baitfish now being out of normal range.
The
most prized catch being encountered in recent days for the local panga fleets
have been the yellowtail. These jacks have been found throughout the area, from
Chileno, Palmilla, Salinas, Gordo Banks and even right off of the Puerto Los
Cabos Marina rock jetties. Very nice quality, most of these fish were weighing
20 to 35 lbs. These fish are striking on various baits, sardineta, chihuil,
caballito and moonfish are working. The numbers of these fish have varied from
day to day, some charter worked hard to account for one or two of these fish,
while other days boats landed limits. Most anglers were fortunate to land just
one of these quality eating and incredible powerful fighting gamefish. These
jacks are strong fighters that can easily cut off anglers leaders on the
nearest rock outcropping. The season is shaping up to be a banner year for
yellowtail, La Paz and the East Cape experienced epic action for these prized
fish during the previous month. The yellowtail were found close to shore and on
the surface sometimes, mixed in with hog sized jack crevalle, though the
majority of the yellows were being found in depths ranging 100 to 180 feet. A
few cabrilla, amberjack and pargo were rounding out the catches off of the
bottom structure. In the upper water column over these same spots there were
feisty bonito striking on rapalas, these are the good eating variety and as
close to any tuna we are finding at this time.
The
combined panga fleets launching out of La Playita, Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent
out approximately 72 charters for the week, with anglers reporting a fish count
of: 2 wahoo, 26 striped marlin, 22 dorado, 96 yellowtail, 12 amberjack, 15
sierra, 82 bonito, 13 cabrilla, 115 roosterfish and 8 mako shark.
Good
Fishing, Eric
