[#000000]Cabo Fish Report[/#000000]
[#000000] August 29-Sept. 4, 2011[/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]WEATHER: [/#000000][#000000]Onceagain we had partly cloudy skies most of the week. It seems verystrange to have this happen so many weeks in a row without having ahurricane threat. These cloudy days have been a result of weathermoving in from the mainland of Mexico. What they have brought us hasbeen a slight lowering of temperature and rain in the mountains. Ourhighs this week were in the mid 90's and our lows got down to 81degrees![/#000000][/#000000]
[#000000][#000000] WATER: [/#000000][#000000]Gorda Banks had a 10 degree drop in water temperature this week as onAugust 31 it was showing 89 degrees at 3pm, on Sept 3[/#000000][size 2][#000000]rd[/#000000][#000000]we had 78 degrees at 3 am. On the Pacific side it seems that thewater temperatures have remained at 78-80 degrees since the beginningof September while they were about 4 degrees higher at the end ofAugust. That is how the could cover we have had can affect thesurface temperatures! We have had afternoon winds from the northweston most days and the swells have slowly increased in size since thebeginning of the month. As of today we were having 5-7 foot swellsreported from the Pacific side and 3-6 feet on the Cortez side.[/#000000][/size][/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]BAIT: [/#000000][#000000]Caballitoand Mullet were the baits of the week with no Mackerel being founddue to the warm waters. Everything was the normal $3 per bait. There were also some decent Sardinas to the north around Palmilla at$25 a scoop but the size of the swells made getting them an iffyproposition.[/#000000][/#000000]
[#000000] FISHING:[/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]BILLFISH[/#000000][#000000]: Still the best side of the Cape for the Striped Marlin, the Pacificcoastline out to 5 miles had scattered tailing fish reported. Nolarge concentrations were found, but there were enough fish out therethat almost everyone had a chance to hook up. There were Blue Marlinto be found as well, a few of our clients this week managed to getreleases on fish to approximately 250 pounds. Most of the Blue Marlinwere found due south and along the Jaime-Golden Ridge. Lures workedwell on the Blues while as usual, live bait worked slightly better onthe Striped Marlin. I did hear of a couple of small Black Marlinbeing caught up toward the Punta Gorda area.[/#000000][/#000000]
YELLOWFIN TUNA: Still on and off, when it is on it is very, verygood! Of course you have to go through a day of bad fishingsometimes, but this week most of the days were good days. Almost allthe fish for the fleet boats were found to the south and the west. The area due south known locally as the “Herradura” had some nicefish averaging 30 pounds. There were fish to 60 and 70 pounds thereas well but the average was around 30. You had to find the porpoise,and had to be one of the early boats, but the fish bit well. Lureswere working, cedar plugs and small plastic headed lures in darkcolors. The cloud cover helped in the fishing as the Yellowfinstayed up longer. Farther to the north, up in the area of the GoldenGate there were some larger fish, we had one client group that got avery nice one that weighed at 169 pounds. That fish struck a lure aswell, but there was a Purse Seiner working the area as well, so whoknows how long that group of fish had left.
[#000000]DORADO: Just like last week anglers weregetting as many Dorado as they wanted if they worked the the pacificshoreline north of the Golden Gate. Most of them were small butthere were quite a few that were in the 15 pound class. Shark buoysto the south of the Golden Gate held some nice fish as well. We didnot have fishing quite as hot and heavy as a few weeks back, but likeI said in last weeks report, the average size seems to be increasing.[/#000000]
[#000000]WAHOO: I did not hear of any Wahoo beingcaught this week, but I am sure there were a few.[/#000000]
[#000000] INSHORE: On and off fishing was the wordfor inshore fishing this week. The swells and afternoon winds kept alot of the Pangas off the beach and instead they were working a fewmiles out looking for Dorado and Tuna with an occasional Marlin toget anglers excited.[/#000000]
[#000000]FISH RECIPE: My recipe has been taking toomuch space so if you want to see it, check out my wordpress blog alittle later in the week, or subscribe to the blog and you willreceive an email as soon as I post it. This week I actually will beposting one since we finally got some Tuna to take home, a very nicepiece from the 169 pound fish![/#000000]
[#000000]NOTES: It was nice to see the Dorado andYellowfin Tuna show themselves again. After a sparse couple of weekswhere you could get some nice fish, but no numbers, anglers werehaving a lot of fun with numbers of fish. Just a quick reminder,most boats carry some ice, but if you are going after Tuna, make surethere is plenty on board, you may have to purchase more just in case! This week the report was written to the sounds of my dog snoring atmy feet and Jack Johnson on the CD player.[/#000000]
[#000000]Until next week, tight lines![/#000000]
