Mar 5, 2009; 05:22PM - Meat Stock Cube Chemical Lure

Tip&Trick Description 1:
MEAT STOCK CUBE CHEMICAL LURE
This started off by being an applied science project in school linked to fishing for predatory species. I am happy for anyone to try it out. It takes some preparation but is worth the experiment. You can use it for river, lake or sea fishing from a bank, beach, pier or boat. Use the strongest line you have for dragging. Have a camera to get evidence of your catch.
First get your meat stock cubes – the red varieties are the best imitation of the fluids that leak from wounded prey. They are much cheaper if bought in the large boxes and cost even less if you can get them put on someone else’s shopping list.
You also need a pair of tights or stockings so ask nicely – particularly if someone is wearing them at the time!
Cut the tights/stockings up into 10cm (4in) squares and put them onto a flat surface.
Take the foil wrapping off of each stock cube being careful not to crumble it and place one centrally onto each square of the tights/stockings.
Tie the four corners of the material together into a firm knot – a test of your dexterity – you may need to use bigger squares at first and trim them up afterwards.
Then tie a length of line inside the knot of each lure bag leaving plenty of spare to attach to the eye on your lure. Store your bags in a waterproof and crushproof container.
When you are ready to fish attach a bag to the eye of your lure making sure that you tie the knot so that a used bag can be easily removed from the eye but cannot slip off during movement underwater. A pair of fine scissors will useful to do the cutting during bag changing. Dispose of used bags and line responsibly please – not into the water or onto the site.
Keep safe – wear a lifejacket if you are fishing on or by deep water. Keep yourself warm and waterproof. Do not fish on your own – it is safer with others. Let someone know where you are going and have a means of contacting him or her.

Cabo Fish Report
Sept. 19-25, 2005
WEATHER: There was no change in our weather this week, it’s still hot and humid. Our day time highs have been in the 100 degree range while the night time lows have been right around 80 degrees. No rain this week even though we did have a bit of cloud cover early.
WATER: The Sea of Cortez was pretty much a solid 85-88 degrees no matter where you went this week, the only difference anyone could find was there were current lines of green water out there and the fish seemed to be up along the edges. On the Pacific side we had a small upwelling of cold 82-83 degree water right along the edge of the Cape early in the week and that has held together and moved offshore. At the end of the week the cool green water is sitting right on top of the San Jaime Bank while the warm water has worked it’s way back around and now lies between the San Jaime and the shore almost all the way up to the Golden Gate Banks.
BAIT: Almost everyone had a difficult time getting bait at the beginning of the week and there were a lot of grunts and ladyfish showing up in bait tanks. They are not the best baits in the world, but are better than nothing I guess. We were able to get Caballito and Mullet at the normal $2 per bait.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: It seemed that the bite on the Pacific side died down for Billfish this week but it stayed pretty good just past the 95 spot and up between the 1150 and the Gorda Banks. Most of this was due to the green water forming a barrier and holding the fish. It was an even mix of Striped and Blue Marlin with most of the Blues being in the 200-250 pound range and the Stripers in the 120 pound class.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: This week was almost a repeat of last week, so here it is. I didn’t hear of may large Tuna this week, in fact almost the only action on Yellowfin I heard of was on football and slightly larger fish up at Punta Gorda, caught by using Sardinas, and a pod of Porpoise holding school fish in the 25-35 pound range up to the north of the 1150, between there and the 1,000 fathom line at Punta Gorda. Like I said Sardinas for the footballs, and the school fish were biting dark colored feathers and live bait dropped to 50 feet.
DORADO: Bigger fish have begun showing up, and of course it helps if you can find something floating in the water. I know of two boats that were able to get into some very hot action this week, one at a dead seal and another at a dead turtle. The seal held a large school of fish averaging 20 pounds while the turtle had fish averaging twice that. Other than floating objects, the action was on smaller fish in the 8-15 pound class just offshore in water between ½ mile and 5 miles out, both on the Pacific side and on the Sea of Cortez side.
WAHOO: There were still Wahoo being caught this week and they were spread out. I had one do a rocket on me and just cut the skirt on a lure. Most of the fish were found along the 50-100 fathom area along both coasts, but there were not as many found as there were last week.
INSHORE: Most of the normal inshore fisheries were on hold as the Panga fishermen attacked the Dorado just off of the beach. There were a few Roosterfish reported, but most of the Pangas were getting Dorado, small Yellowfin and Bonito.
NOTES: Keeping busy, again I have to take off as I have a charter. Have fun this week and I hope you get a big one! Tournament season is only a few weeks away and already the big boats are showing back up! Until next week, Tight Lines!
