WEATHER:
HOT, HOT and HOTTER that is just the way it is here in Cabo now with about
everyday pushing the 100 degree mark and lows in the mid 70,s. It seems the
last 2 summers have been hotter than normal that I remember and I have been
here a long time. Some days have been a little cloudy that has made for really
humid weather with not a lot of storms down south. It seems we have been pretty
lucky so far.
WATER: Well
some storms have come within about 300 miles off our coast has churned up the
water along with some swells coming in bringing in lots of green, warm water
close to shore with not much change in temperature. The whole area is blanketed
in a warm bathtub like water with fishing not being to bad. The Striped Marlin
which prefer a little cooler water are not round like normal but the Blue
Marlin are here in good numbers and this everything to do with our warm water
temperatures. (Please check out Tempbreak to get a good idea on water temperatures).
BILLFISH:
Blue Marlin fishing continues to be just ok this past week. It seems the fish
have moved up to the Pacific side where the water has been somewhat cooler,
around San Jamie Banks and the Migrino area. Most of the Blues have been landed
with lures and the Striped Marlin on live bait. The Striped Marlin action has
been decnt also but we were getting better results last week. We have had
decent numbers of Sailfish this past week and this continued now for the last 3
weeks, with good Sailfish numbers being caught and released. So if you’re into
Blue Marlin you had better get to Cabo, as this year has been really good and
we think it will continue through October.
DORADO:
Fishing for Dorado was not happening this past week with very few if any being
reported. It has been pretty disappointing the last 2 years for Dorado action
as it ha been pretty bad. We think this might have something to do with El Nino
this year but really not sure what is going on. We do know we need to practice
limits, laws and conservation and keep any Japanese fisherman out of here with
their nets.
SWORDFISH:
Hasn’t heard of any caught this week.
WAHOO: Yes a
few landed over this past week at Gray Rock on jet heads so if your into Wahoo
try that area over the next few days.
TUNA: Well,
there has been some action on the Tuna we landed one tipping the scales at
298lbs and another using the kite that was around 149lbs. Kite fishing has been
proving to be good for Tuna up and around the San Jamie Banks. Most of the
Tuna are scattered out so you normally have to run away to get to them but if
you reach them you mite catch a whopper.
INSHORE:
Rooster Fish are what is happening inshore. There is a bit of green water
closer to shore so that hasn’t helped really, but all in all it is mostly
Rooster action from San Jose all the way to the Pacific side around San Jamie
Banks. Some Skip Jacks are hitting also with some good numbers being reported.
There has been Sailfish reported caught inshore also on Pangas so it mite be
worth grabbing a Panga and going out for a 5 hour excursion to see what happens
inshore.
