Fishing the north end of Cerralvo Island, Donna Thompson got this hefty yellowtail early in the week.

The yellowtail were again the focus early in the week before winds came up with fish in the 20-40 pound class. Rob hold up another nice one on the sands at Muertos Bay.

From Boise, Idaho to Long Beach CA, the Tailhunter Road Tour 2011 moves from the Sportsman Show in Idaho to the big Fred Hall Fishing and Boating Show at the Long Beach Convention Center. This is the big one! Show runs from Wednesday to Sunday. here we pose with famous long range angler (The Long Ranger) Ralph Mikelson at our booth.
YELLOWTAIL SPARK EARLY WEEK BITE BEFORE WINDS KNOCK THINGS DOWN!
La Paz/ Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 24 to May 2, 2012
Overall, there’s every indication that, if this keeps it, this might be one of the better yellowtail seasons La Paz has seen in quite sometime! Not only did the fish show up two months earlier than normal, but overall, the size and quality of the fish has been outstanding. Certainly, not on the level of say, Loreto, Mulege or Santa Rosalia which are famous for their yellowtail runs, but surely, La Paz is having it’s own banner year.
This week, again, except for the days when fishing efforts were hampered by a few windy days, especially later in the week, the yellowtail were big, brutal and willing to bite. Our pangas fishing out of Bahia de Los Muertos near Las Arenas averaged 1-5 of the fat yellowtail that ranged from 20-48 pounds! The fish were found in numerous places…north and south Cerralvo Island…La Ventana…Punta Perico …and Los Alamos. There were reports of some giant yellowtail also at El Bajo and some of the spots around Espirito Santo Island, but strong northern winds kept even the hearty commercials guys off the hot spots.
But, even when it was windy at times, there was some great action to be had from the pargo, cabrilla, jack crevalle, bonito, amberjack and small roosterfish that are also in the areas around the yellowtail.
