Water
Temperature: The
water temperature has stayed fairly constant this week . We
have seen a slight warming of the water. The water will
continue to warm and bring the fish in. This should be an
excellent week of fishing!!
Weather
Temperature: We
have seen very comfortable days with high clouds keeping the
temps. down at a very nice level. We are starting to get a
little humidity in the air and you can feel that those days of
true summer are just around the corner.
Fishing Spots and Distance: Most
of the fishing has been fairly close with the boats fishing from
inshore to about twenty miles out.
Off-shore fishing.-
The fishing off
shore has been very good for Tuna that are running with the
Porpise. Most of them have been in the smaller class from
the six to fifteen pound range. They have been very
aggressive taking almost anything that is put thru them.
The dorado and Marlin have slowed slightly this week with many
fish being seen but not wanting to take the bait. We have
seen a few more Wahoo than caught this week but with the
unexpected strikes those teeth are no match for monofilament.
In-shore fishing.-
The in shore fishing is picking up
with the concentration of balihoo and mullett that have been moving in
to the area. The best fishing has been in the area
of Punta Arena and moving south to the La Ribera area. This has taken
place very close to shore with the Jack's and Rooster
fish chasing the bait. Very early mornings have
been the best.
Successful
lures:
For the Dorado it has
been white and blue along with green and black. For the Tuna it has
been Blue and Silver hoochies along with cedar plugs and
almost any thing else thrown!!
Bait
Used: Bait
has been Mackrel with the Sardina just now starting to show up in any
numbers. The report is that most of the smaller bait is being caught
south in the Cabo Pulmo area.
Highlight of
the Week: Those Tuna!!!
See you
next week!!!
