That’s about what a mix of fish looks like right now. A little of this and that…some snapper…pargo…cabrilla…maybe some dorado! All good eats. It all depends on windows of opportunities between the winds.
Another “juvenile” whaleshark like the kind in La Paz Bay that everyone wants to swim with. This young fella is about 15 feet long. Thanks to Carl Zalinskii for the great photo. It’s great when the waters are calm, but tough to find if it’s choppy!
Another of Carl Zalinski’s photos snorkeling with one of the whalewharks in La Paz Bay. Don’t worry. They’re very gentle and don’t have teeth!
You get the idea of the scale of these big fish next to a snorkeler. These are the youngsters! The adults in the open ocean can reach lengths of 40-50 feet.
NICE TIME TO BE IN TOWN BUT NOT MANY FISHERMEN AROUND – STILL WINDY TOO!
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Dec. 20-27, 2015
Regretfully, not much activity to report. Only two days were fishable this week that didn’t have strong winds. There was even a bit of rain our there on the water. Of the two days, we had some folks get out one day and that was it.
It’s Christmas week. The town isn’t really busy and those that are in are snowbirds just catching some sunshine or having a winter get-away. It’s off-season and most of the captains have their boats out’ve the water as well. It’s pretty. It’s just really breezy.
Lots of folks are trying to swim with the whalesharks as well, but like fishing, it’s incumbent on the ability to get out there in between the winds. Although the whalesharks are right in the bay in shallow water, if it’s windy and choppy, it’s difficult to find them, let alone trying to snorkel with them. However, the popularity of swimming with the whalesharks has grown exponentially since the city of La Paz started protecting them. At times, there’s been dozens of whalesharks in the bay and honest, it’s a once, in-a-lifetime experience with these gentle “juveniles” that run 10-20 feet long and are true “sharks” but they have no teeth per se and feed on plankton and other itty-bitty things…not people and mammals! Sometimes, there’s literally a whole fleet of boats out there with folks swimming with the whalesharks.
But, the disappointment is that so many folks are coming but don’t understand that during this time of year, you can’t go swimming with them EVERY DAY because of the wind. Other parts of the year, you just pick your day.
However, I get so many folks this time of year who say, “We’re from Canada and we are driving up from Cabo for one day and want to go swim with the whalesharks” or “We just drove 1000 miles to swim with the whalesharks and have just one day.” Then, they show up and it’s a day no one can get out!
Anyway, as far as fishing, there’s still a surprising variety of fish out there on the days we can fish. Cold water species like sierra are becoming more frequent. Inshore species like pargo and cabrilla are around the rocky and reef areas and always make great eating and don’t discount trigger fish for great eating as well. Plus, a few pelagic species like dorado and billfish too.
Some of the commercial guys are still finding yellowtail and amberjack off the drop off by the lighthouse. Those guys gotta make a living so they’re a little more inclined to go out even when it’s less than favorable conditions. But that’s a different ballgame than folks who want to sport fish. But, even then, it’s hard on the commercial guys because the winds limit their access to the waters as well. But, when they can get out, they’re finding the fork tails in the deeper water.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a continuing great Holiday Season! Happy New Year for 2016!

From Virginia, they made the most of having only one day to fish, Richard Dyer on the right got this striped marlin and gets and assist from his buddy, Josh Saitelbach, on the beach at Bahia de los Muertos. They were not able to release the fish and donated the meat.
It’s official. This barred pargo /pargo mulatto shot in October this year north of La Paz has been certified but the International Underwater Spearfishing Association (IUSA) as a new spearfishing world record. It was weighed on the certified scales at Tailhunter Sportfishing at 38.5 pounds and was shot by Matt Deischel who lives near Denver, Colorado. After weighing the fish, he and his buddies donated all the meat to the local orphanage. In Mexico, spearfishing with tanks is illegal and elite athletes, like Mark, are all free divers who hunt while holding their breaths and diving to great depths. Matt was diving with Pistoleros de Mar in La Paz.
Photo of Nick Jones, Matt’s buddy, outside the Tailhunter offices with the scale, showing the 38.5 pound reading. The fish would have been heavier except it was not weighed immediately after it was boated since the scale is located back in La Paz so the fish had already been dead for several hours and dehydrated.
WINDOWS OF OPPORTUNITY TO FISH PRODUCES…FISH!
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Dec. 13-20, 2015
Another week of double-digit winds. Only 2 real days that were even remotely fishable. Other days would’ve been miserable if we tried to go out and, I guess we could’t fished if we really had to, but why?
Fortunately, this time of year, we have snow birds who are more inclined to seek sunshine instead of fish. If they want to fish, it’s maybe a day or two. Therefore, we can tell them to postpone trips or wait until the forecast shows the best days with the least wind. But, it’s pretty easy to calculate. If there’s storms north of the border, chances are there’s wind down where we are in La Paz. Overall, it’s been cool by our standards with daytime temps in the mid-60’s and lows to the low 50’s! Where the blankets?
For the fishing, the inshore stuff is the best deal. Working the rocks and shallow areas, there’s some decent cabrilla with barred pargo around. They can provide some good action although for inexperienced anglers, it can be frustrating trying to pull the stubborn fish from the rocks. As well, there’s some sierra around and bonito. There had been yellowtail biting at the drop off at Las Arenas but with the winds we weren’t able to check out those areas this week.
Offshore, surprisingly, there’s some dorado breezing through and commercial guys tell me there’s still some wahoo around plus we did hook a marlin that was either late in the season or way ahead of his friends for the year.
FELIZ NAVIDAD!
Feliz Navidad…Mele Kalikimaka…Merry Christmas…Happy Hanakkuh…in whatever language, God bless and have a great Christmas and holiday season.
As we pull up on another Christmas, Jill and I (and our rescued kitten…Catlyn!) wanted to wish all of you and your families a safe, happy and peaceful Christmas. God bless you all and thank you for being a blessing in our lives.
That’s our story!

A nice time to be in La Paz. It’s pretty quiet these days. The city returns to being a sleep beach-side pueblo in many respects. I think it’s that lull before Christmas. The video was taken from the 2nd floor terrace at out Tailhunter Restaurant. Not exactly rush hour traffic. Sun’s out and it’s breezy but some days can be very windy.
This is about how choppy and windy it is…even in our normally flat water bay! This photo is from Baja Joe’s over in Sargento. This is their high season.
A view of the new CBX pedestrian bridge that just opened up this week that allows passengers in San Diego to check in and now walk directly from San Diego to the new Tijuana Airport making it even easier now to fly to La Paz, and other Mexican destinations, especially for S. Californians.
NOT MUCH HAPPENING – Fish and City Hunkered Down for Navidad
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Dec. 6-13, 2015
Not much to tell you this week. About the only ones who seem to be having a great time on the water are the windsurfers and kite boarders who come down this time of the year specifically because it’s windy. They’re having a great time and a big reason they flock to the area. But, their high-season, is also the reason it’s the off-season for fishing. It’s chilly and windy! That area between Las Arenas and Cerralvo Island is like a wind FUNNEL making it world-class for the windsurfing crowd. When the winds die down, and they leave is when the fishermen start rolling back in. So, yea…good wind are blowing…again!
And, generally that’s how it was this week again as it has been now for over a month. We didn’t have many anglers this week and when we did, well…it was windy. And wind and fishing usually aren’t a good recipe for fishing success.
There were some small cabrilla and pargo caught. We did have two marlin hooked that got off. Some bonito and trigger fish and that was about it.
As I said, not many fishermen these days and town is quiet. Peaceful. Very nicely so, in many respects. It might surprise many of our regulars. Not much traffic. Everyone is getting ready for Christmas. It’s a good time to be here. Even if you’re not fishing. Or catching. Still beats working. Just come and hang out. And escape the snow, rain and cold from wherever you area!
NEW SAN DIEGO / TIJUANA AIRPORT BRIDGE FINALLY OPENED!
The Cross Border Xpress (CBX) will operate just like a regular terminal on the U.S. side where you check in then walk across the bridge to the Tijuana Airport already checked in!
The new CBX pedestrian bridge just opened this past week to much anticipated fanfare. It’s great. So many folks take advantage of flights out of the new Tijuana Airport for great flights direct to La Paz and other Mexican destinations. Previously, you had to take a shuttle or taxi across the border; drive yourself; have someone else drive you; or take a connecting flight from somewhere else. Not always the most convenient.
With the new bridge, it’s just like an extension of the Tijuana Airport. You can part on the San Diego side. There’s long-term parking. You can check in at the terminal just like normal. Then, there’s a small toll to walk across the bridge to the Tijuana Airport to board your plane. Easy! This will be great for us in La Paz.
Here’s more info about it. Click the link:

There’s some nice early season yellowtail off the deep hole near the Arenas lighthouse. Robert Pettit with one of several taken this week. Nice grade!
First timers, Ron Meacham and Allyson Tarr with Captain Pancho and their big sailfish posing on the beach at Bahia de los Muertos. The fish could not be released but meat was donated.
Ken Errair had a pretty nice day, didn’t he! In between winds, he boated two big amberjack, a trophy cabrilla and the striped marlin (attempted release not successful). Ken just moved to our area at El Sargento.
Don Nuttbrock with another nice yellowtail. Don is from Milwaukie, Oregon.
WINDS DIE LATE IN WEEK and FISH BITE!
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 30-Dec. 6, 2015
Good thing we didn’t have any fishermen earlier in the week. The winds were up again and really ripping it up. In fact, we were watching the weather reports pretty carefully as Hurricane Sandra was building up to the south of us. This is very very late in the season to be seeing anything like hurricanes so there was some trepidation. It’s been a wacky two seasons of El Nino conditions so the weather is out-of-kilter.
The hurricane was never going to hit La Paz, but enough of the periphery of the storm had a good chance of rain and some very intense winds…stronger than what we had already been having. By the time the storm hit mainland Mexico, the hurricane had diminished to a manageable tropical storm and nothing but clouds and some big fun surf for surfers in Cabo San Lucas.
But, we still got winds in La Paz. That generated some big waves too. Waves have been wacking the waterfront malecon with such force that spray hits passing traffic and much of the sand below the seawall has been dragged out exposing all the underlying rocks!
However, like I said, we had no fishermen early as this is off-season now until about March.
Fortunately, just as the winds dropped off, we had anglers show up. And it was better than I thought it would be.
The rooster fish bit! They got into some 30-40 pound fish. All released.
There were some billfish lost and some medium dorado. Also, they got into that yellowtail bite that’s been taking place off Las Arenas the last few weeks at the big hole where the shallow sands drop off to deeper water and where we have also been getting some big cabrilla and amberjack.
It seems the equation is the same. If there’s no winds, the fish bite. If it’s windy…best to stay in town and have a beer.
That’s our story! Have a great week.
