[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]YELLOWFIN TUNA - Everyone was so excited about the other stuff that they[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: Most of the action continued to be out near the entrada. Sierra,[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]barracuda and of course plenty of spotted bay bass. There are a few grouper[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]to be had up to 10 pounds. Back up in the esteros, the corvina came back[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]with a vengeance with good counts for everyone. Not too many snook, but[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]there were a few found in the five to seven pound range. Whale watching has[/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]SNOOK - A few, but not a bonanza.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Sat., March 01, 2003[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: The fishing for all species really took a nosedive earlier this[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]week. A colder green water current moved in, and combined with the effects[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]of coming out of the full moon period, the fishing just shut down.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]The bright spot is the 78º warm water has returned and the blue water is now[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]only about 6 miles off the beach. The fishing is improving, and will get[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]better as the new week develops. The boats are currently averaging only[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]about one sailfish a day, but that is still an improvement over earlier in[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]the week.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]The tuna have also come back. There are a lot of 20- to 40-pound yellowfin[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]tuna and they are taking live bait. One thing we did have all week was[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]plenty of black skipjack tuna for the inshore fly-fishers. John Barrs and[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]“Trapper” from Denver fly-fished several days with Martin on the panga[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]“Isamar.” They were getting as many as 50 of the hard fighting skippies a[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]day before they called it quits.[/size][/font]
