WEATHER: Some cloudy days with that huge storm south of us, its been cloudy and some rough seas for a couple days on Friday. The weather really hasn’t been to bad with highs in the mid 80,s and lows going down to low 70,s, so its actually pleasant when we are not getting any sort of tropical weather.
WATER: Seems to be split in the water temperatures if you head northwest to Pacific side you will run into some cool water and if you head towards San Jose leaving Cabo you will see much warmer temperatures over there. So its kinda split down the middle go to Pacific and cool water or San Jose and warm water. We expect those cooler temperatures to spread towards the East Cape over the next 2 weeks to a month.
BILLFISH: Well, with not to many qualifying fish in the Bisbee Black and Blue this year it seems we had much better fishing for Blue Marlin over the last month than we got for the tournament. Its, to bad cause the last month has really been hot for all Billfish species till this last week, when it slowed. There has been some Striped Marlin around and still the Sailfish are here in the area. So the Bill fishing isn’t so bad if your just trying to land a Marlin. The Sailfish are up and around San Jamie Banks about 2 miles offshore from the beach. If you try anywhere from the Light House to Rancho Migrino you mite have some luck on Striped Marlin or Sailfish. Now is a great time to get on down to Cabo since the weather will soon get really good and the fishing is always consistent this time of year. Please come by my office for all the up to the minute Fish Reports.
DORADO: It seems a few more Dorado have showed this past week but it is nothing special yet. We have landed a few on lures and ballyhoo. Water was to warm and now it is getting cooler and expect the Dorado fishing to pick up soon.
TUNA: There has been some Tuna around but nothing major really. Still a few football size fish around at San Jamie Banks if your using striker kings you mite have a chance to land a few. They are great for Sushimi and Ceviche or just sear them on a grill
INSHORE: The inshore action is just SO SO with Small Tuna and Sailfish inshore. The inshore fishing has remained spotty at best a few Marlin have been taken on some of the Pangas from Solmar to the Light House has been good. Some of the local guys are landing some large Groupers in the rocks just offshore in front of the Pedregal. Some of those guys use a hand line with cut bait and land some nice fish anywhere from 20lb to 50lbs is common. They use Pangas and are good at dodging any waves coming in, since they are pretty close to shore fishing in like 20 to 50 feet of water.
WAHOO: Our own Bob Marlin did land a 58lbs Wahoo this past week. It didn’t help us in the Bisbee but it was a great catch and good eating for the boys. There are still some Wahoo around and they were being caught on jet heads.
