Tailhunter Fish Report

We are definitely into sierra season with quite a few of these speedy sportfish around now which is great for inshore light tackle. Captain Ramiro holds up a nice one.

A fairly typical catch with our Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay anglers...decent size yellowtail and sierra...all close to shore.

Grey Whale Season is here...from January to March, the grey whales take up residence in the shallow warm waters around Bahia Magdalena. For a great family experience of a lifetime where you get up close with these great animals in the calm waters of Mag Bay. let Tailhunters set up your trip!

We've had a great time in Denver this past week at the International Sportsman's Expo. Great to have seen so many of our amigos. The Tailhunter International Road Tour 2011 heads to chilly Billings, Montana this week for the Great Rockies Sportshow. If you're in the area, come by the booth and book your 2011 trip fishing trip to La Paz.

ANGLERS WORK INSHORE FOR YELLOWTAIL,  SIERRA,  and ROCK SPECIES

La Paz/ Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Jan. 2-9, 2011

Some cloudy skies and wind this week in between some really nice fishing weather.  Nice time to be in town.  I think most of our anglers this week have been surprised at the variety of fish.  Most of our fishing has been in the Muertos Bay area where even if the winds are a little blustery from the north, we can still be fairly protected since the fish are close and we’re on the lee side of the island. 

Species this week included pargo and sierra as well as cabrilla, but also a nice jag or two of yellowtail.  Not big fish, but the yellowtail are certainly  getting a little bigger than in the last few weeks and fun on light tackle or using the iron.  The yellowtail were about 10 pounds before, but this week some skinnier 10-15 pounders were making themselves known.

The other species readily ate live and chunked dead sardines.  “Chunking” involves tossing handfuls of mashed and whole dead sardines into the current and letting it drift down.  Anglers then pin another dead sardine to a hook and strip off handfuls of slack line which also drifts down with the rest of the “chunk.”  It’s an effective way of getting stubborn fish like pargo, snapper, and cabrilla out’ve their rocky hideouts.  Of course, once they bite, you have to turn them quick to kee’p them from heading back into the hole and cutting you off. 

 WHALE WATCHING SEASON

By the way, we’re also sending out whale watching trips now to Magdalena Bay as the grey whales have started taking up their winter residences in the shallow lagoons.  Usually, the whales are around from January to March with February being optimal for viewing with the whales and their calves often coming right up to the boats. 

FISHING AND HUNTING SHOWS

If you’re going to be in the area of Billings, Montana, the Tailhunter International 2011 Road Tour will be moving from Denver to Billings this week.  Come by and pick up our new brochures and DVD’s and book your next La Paz fishing trip.  After that in two weeks, we head to the International Sportsman’s Expo in Sacramento CA at the State Fairgrounds.

That’s our story!
