PHOTO 1: Unlike so many places right now, it’s not freezing/ snowing/ raining in La Paz! Temperatures this past week ran into the high 70’s and even low 80’s. It’s more like spring-conditions rather than winter! This sunset photo was taken from town looking across the Bay to the Mogote Peninsula.

PHOTO 2: It’s not as serious as I look, but at the recent series of Sportsmen’s Shows, I was chosen to participate with a panel of “experts” to answer questions about fishing in Baja. I guess I had folks fooled as I tried to live up to the billing but I’m flanked by two great pros…on the left, you can barely see John Donovan, owner of Redrum Sportfishing in Cabo San Lucas and to the right is Felipe Valez from the famous Valdez family that has run the Spa Buenavista / Buenavista Beach Resort for so many years. Felipe is on the microphone.

Tailhunter’s next stop on the fishing/hunting outdoor trade show circuit will be Puyallup, Washington south of Seattle. The show starts Wednesday and goes to Sunday.

PHOTO 3: A school-sized roosterfish off Muertos Bay is pulled near the boat before it gets released. The fish in the 5-15 pound class are mixing it up on the shallows right now along with sierra and jack crevalle. Great light tackle and flyfishing opportunities!

MIXED SPECIES AVAILABLE FOR SURPRISINGLY GOOD WINTER FISHING

La Paz/ Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of January 17-24, 2009

Not many fishermen right now. Weather has been great. High 70’s in the day and relatively calm for this time of year as far as the wind is concerned.

Still lots of sierra inshore even in the bay but pretty much anywhere there’s a shallow place with a nice drop off, slow trolling the area with some live bait or a shiny lure produces strikes. We had a few roosters here and there and there could be more, but no one was really targeting them this week. It’s hard to get a good gauge of the fishing when there aren’t that many folks on the water.

For all we know offshore, there could be monster tuna or giant marlin prowling…that’s not likely in January, but who knows? Everyone we had this week wanted to check out the inshore fishing and that’s always good right now. As well as the sierra, cabrilla and snapper were also caught and a few nice pargo got broken off in the rocks.

NEXT STOP WASHINGTON

For any of you who came to see us this past week at the Sacramento CA International Sportsmans Expo at the California State Fairgrounds, it was great to see you. The show was incredible. I think most would say it was one of the best and busiests shows in recent years! It as off-the-charts and we were talking and handing out brochures from our booth as fast as folks could ask for them! We almost ran out.

By the time you’re reading this, we’ll either be on the road or set up in our booth in Puyallup, Washington which is just south of Seattle. The show starts Wednesday and goes to Sunday. Hope to see you this week!

By the way, you can follow all of our reports and travels on Facebook now as well as the Tailhunter Bar. Check it out.

That’s our story!
