WEATHER: It has been pretty nice, but really hot. That is to
be expected, though this time of year, over the last month we have been pretty
lucky as it has been pretty calm down south with really no storms forming. We
are in the middle of the summer and still have another month and a half to go,
to get out of the woods, as far as hurricanes and storms. Highs are pushing a
100 degrees in the daytime when the sun is shining but we have seen a few days
of overcast and a few drops of rain a couple days
WATER: All green water in our area and a long boat ride to
find the blue water. Just like it was last week, and hasn’t changed much in
over a week the warm water is here to stay awhile and it feels like a bathtub
if you spend time in it. The temps I noticed on the Tempbreak map was 85 to 90
degrees, which is pretty warm all over. Typical mid summer weather right now
and that means pretty intense heat that doesn’t let up much so this will keep
that water temperature way up there. Please check out Tempbreak to get a good idea on water temperatures.
BILLFISH: The Striped Marlin fishing has been just so so
with not very good action throughout the past. We have to run aways to find
marlin out around the Horse Shoe. If you use ballywhoo, live bait or lures that
is whats catching the Strippers. Please remember to release all your BILLFISH
for the next generation to catch and release. Most all the fish being caught is
landed on live bait and lures.
DORADO: A few small Dorados are being caught, but nothing
major really.
SWORDFISH: Well there showing up in good numbers with all
this warm water we have here in place. So along with the great Blue and Striped
Marlin bite we also have Sailfish action. Really what a time to be in Cabo when
all the Billfish Species are here and biting.
WAHOO: Well, there has been a few Wahoo caught this past
week. Most are in the 40lb to 50lb pound range. Jet heads are what is catching
fish. More than usual for this time of year.
TUNA: The thing is to get to the Tuna you will have to run
18 to 30 miles offshore and hope you run in to them. It’s a gamble but if you
finds a school you have good chances of coming home with a boat full of Tuna.
We have been doing well using the Kites and live bait. Really you have to have
the mind froame of running along way to catch a big fish and not on the numbers
of fish.
INSHORE: Off course its mostly all Roosters inshore but, it
seems that inshore has been good for striped marlin this past week also. So, if
you hired a Panga you mite run into some good Marlin action, cause the fish are
tight to the beach and close to shore, within 3 to 4 miles. Lots of Triggerfish
also inshore, the kids will love that action.Well the inshore action is about
the same as last week with quite a few Roosters and Skip Jack being caught
close to shore.
