Cabo San Lucas - October 2nd, 2008
supplied by: Baja Anglers RECORDED:94 °FISHING: Excellent
Hi Folks,
This last weeks fishing has been pretty good. The striped marlin are still out at Golden Gate banks, but there’s one catch. Go fishing on a day that the fish are feeding heavily on the bait, and it’s going to be a slower fishing day. There is just too much bait, a ton of it, and the whole food chain is active right now. Whales, sea lions, marlin, Humboldt squid, and Dorado are all feeding on the green mackerel and sardines. It’s actually a very cool fishery with all the action going on. Right now, expect the fishing to be sporadic. One day on with 3 to 4 marlin to the boat, the next day you wouldn’t think there are any marlin out there at all.
Plenty of dorado around, they just seem to be everywhere you fish. Lots of fish in the 10 to 20lb. range, but there are some very nice 40 lb. plus fish being taken every day.
Just ask Dave Michael, Paul Jutras and Jim Jacques from Jamestown, RI. This is one great group of guys that love to fish! I had a ton of fun with them. They brought down their own light tackle gear, and I mean light. They were into one Dorado after another and the action was non-stop. Jim wrote:
We had a great time fishing- 45 Dorado and a few missed billfish. All were caught on Light tackle and fly. The way we like it! Alex and Louis were very good and Grants knowledge and helpful tips made the trip an awesome experience.
The FY Tuna are starting to show up. The best bet is treking 30 plus miles offshore and keeping a good eye out for a school of porpoise. Cedar plus and marlin jigs will do the trick, with a live bait fly-lined in front of the school picking up the larger fish.
Some inshore action around, but it’s mostly smaller roosterfish and jacks roaming the beaches, expect the inshore action to pick up in the next few weeks. Some snook around. If you fish hard you can find some here and there, but it’s not anything to go crazy about –yet.

Zihuatanejo - April 27th, 2008
supplied by: The Patient Angler RECORDED:86 °FISHING: Fair
Just got back from another great week at Boca de Iguanas on main land Mexico, just down the beach from the little town of La Manzanilla. Went down with some customers and friends to catch some sun, do a little saltwater fly-fishing and to take a look at the properties offered by this new eco-hotel/resort and real estate development. The weather was great with temps in the 80’s, and a cool ocean breeze every day.
Unfortunately, the water conditions were not the best when we arrived, hitting the last few days of a red tide that moved into the Costalegre area the prior week. Which forced us to have to enjoy all the amenities the resort had to offer for a couple of days while we waited for the water to clear. Breakfast on the beach, beach combing, pool time, a mouth-watering cevichi lunch, a few games of horseshoes, quick game of soccer, more pool time with a cool drink, sea kayaks, rock climbing, get a massage, happy hour with friends on the beach, a delightful elegant dinner served on the rooftop patio overlooking the ocean at sunset, music and a bon-fire on the beach at night. I was looking forward to the water clearing, so we might have something fun to do. Yeah Right!
The water finally started to clear and the baitfish started to come back into the bay, which leads to good fishing since the bigger fish will soon follow the bait. We decided to give the inshore one more day to recover and headed out off shore in search of blue water where we hoped to find some Sailfish, Dorado or Tuna to chase, but we went out 24 miles and found the water to still be a little on the green side (a little cold for off shore game fish on the fly). We came across a few Dorado during our day, but none that wanted to play at the end of our lines. The inshore is where we spent the rest of out time at Boca, fishing from a boat and off the beach. Our fishing improved and we saw a few Yellow Tail, schools of Giant Needle Fish and a lot of small sized Jacks. The Jack Crevalle or Toro as they call it in Mexico for the way it fights, provided us with the most action. We caught lots of small ones and a few bigger ones to make each day, but given the colder water conditions I thought we did pretty well. I’m looking forward to getting back down to Boca de Iguanas not only to fish with better water conditions, but to also enjoy this beautiful resort community and it’s staff again.

East Cape - November 3rd, 2007
supplied by: Baja on the Fly RECORDED:85 °FISHING: Greatmaps
Thanks to all of you who emailed me last week to remind me that the time changes this week in the U.S. However, this is a “Below the Border” report and the time changed in Baja last Sunday morning. Sam and Janet Farish, Atlanta, GA, enjoyed a week of great weather and fishing this week with double-digit roosters, sierra and ladyfish inshore. Offshore it was dorado and yellowfin tuna rounding off a great week of East Cape fishing. Then they headed up to Lopez Mateos in Magdalena Bay to sample the even hotter offshore action.

Magdalena Bay - November 3rd, 2007
supplied by: Baja on the Fly RECORDED:88 °FISHING: Excellent Early November and the fishing is easy…offshore. Sam and Janet Farish on their first day headed out on the “Mar Gato” with Captain Sergio and our guide Lance Peterson.
Their day started quick! In the first ten minutes they were both tight to fifty pound wahoo. Today they headed out for hopefully more of the same action on the Thetis before sliding down to the anchorage at Santa Maria Bay to spend the night. Billfish action from the Entrada to below Pta. Tosca could only be classified as “wide-open”. Bird school after bird school in every direction you looked but even as you slid on the spot you could never be sure what might be there. Marlin, tuna, dorado or wahoo? As one angler put it, “They were biting everything; probably would have bitten an old tennis shoe!” If you are heading this way, bring plenty of tackle. Double digit fishing goes through the tackle fast!!!

Banderas Bay - March 22nd, 2007

Puerto Vallarta fishing report, well its the season for mah mahi , roosterfish, sailfish, and small tuna, and we have been catching one or the other everyday. Puerto vallarta is mostly known for its huge game fish 300 lb yellow fin tuna and the 1000 lb marlin. but you can also catch small game fish as well and that is the season we are in riht now. the mahi mahi and the dorado have been running between corbetena and the point off of punta de mita. Sailfish is a great bill fish but mahi mahi and Wahoo are some of the best tasting fish out there!! The mahi mahi have been ranging from 15-60 lbs and have been feeding where the mercy water hits the deeper ocean water. and have been biting everything we through at them. Sailfish have been traveling in schools of 3 all week we have been spotting them and casting 2-3 lines of live bait and catching and releasing like crazy!! We caught 5 last Tuesday on a 6hr trip I mean they were literally jumping in the boat. The Wahoo have been a little trickier to catch now when your fishing for wahoo you have to troll at a faster speed then when your targeting billfish, wahoo is one of the fastest fish out there and has razor sharp teeth so if you not trolling at a fast enough speed say good buy to your $100 lure corbetena was the hot spot for wahoo last week ranging from 25-55 lbs we have not seen anything bigger than that so far this month.
