Cabo Fish Report
Oct. 16-22, 2006
WEATHER: I know why everyone likes to start coming to Cabo in October, it is because of the weather! We have had daytime highs in the high 80’s and nighttime lows in the low 70’s all week. It was actually cool enough on Saturday morning that my deckhand and myself wore long-sleeve shirts. We have had partly cloudy skies with a slight breeze in the mornings and almost no wind in the afternoons, then a slight breeze in the evening. Just what the doctor ordered. Of course it looks like this pattern may not continue for long as there is the possibility that tropical storm Paul could pass our way Tuesday, the day before the beginning of the Bisbee Black and Blue tournament. It might be a hurricane by then and forecasts call for it to be 200 miles to the southwest on Tuesday morning, continuing in our direction. All our fingers are crossed!
WATER: Warm water on the Cortez side, up to a solid 86 degrees were the norm with great surface conditions, a slight swell and an offshore wind only early in the morning. On the Pacific side the swells were a bit larger and there was a little more wind but nothing major. Water temperatures were 85 degrees up to 35 miles offshore and up towards the finger banks, then just a bit farther they dropped a degree or two.
BAIT: Caballito were available at the usual $2 per bait and there were Sardinas at $20 a bucket, both at the mouth of the harbor and up off of Palmilla and La Playita.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Probably the best way to clue you in on the marlin bite is by the results of a couple of tournaments. We had the Los Cabos Billfish Tournament this week and there were over100 boats participating. There were three qualifying Marlin caught (over #300) and they were all caught on the first day. The largest fish was over #430 and was caught aboard a 31’ Bertram. This weekend is the Bisbee/Lapicolla Offshore tournament with 64 boats entered and on the first day only one almost qualifying fish at #295 was brought to the scales. During both tournaments there were plenty of Striped Marlin, smaller Blues and a few Blacks and Sailfish caught, but no real beast fish reported. There was a lot of effort on the Pacific side out at the Banks and as a result most of the fish were from those areas.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: We had great fishing for school Yellowfin this week up in the San Jose area off of La Playita to La Laguna. The fish were close to shore and at one time I saw 60 boats working several spots. The average catch was five or six fish between 15 and 30 pounds with a few larger ones in the mix. Light line or floura-carbon leaders with small hooks and a split shot on every other line brought the fish to the boat. It’s exciting to see the fish boil on the chum right where your bait is at then hearing the reels start to scream. There was on monster caught on the first day of the Los Cabos Billfish tournament as a Yellowfin Tuna that topped the scales at #315 was brought in by John Bulla on the “Go Deep” before noon.
DORADO: There were still plenty of Dorado around this week and most of the action was still on the Pacific side of the Cape. It seemed that most of the cruisers were going up the coast 15 miles and starting to work the water inside the Golden Gate area. I had a friend on a Panga who fished just three miles of the lighthouse on the Pacific side and he got 7 Dorado in five hours but several of them were little dinks of #8 and #10, the others were nice ones of #20 . Live bait slow trolled after catching one fish worked, as did trolling dark colored pushing plugs.
WAHOO: I heard quite a few Wahoo being called in on the radio during the tournaments and almost all of them came from the San Jaime Banks area. The fish averaged 30 pounds. The largest caught during the Los Cabos tournament weighed in at 79.8 pounds.
INSHORE: Just as last week, there were still a few Roosterfish being reported this week but with there being so many Dorado and Tuna close in it was hard to get the Captains of the Pangas to target anything else.
NOTES: Bisbee Black and Blue is coming up, keep your fingers crossed the Hurricane Paul does not grow up to be a big boy and ruin our fun! Until next week, Tight Lines!
