From Los Angeles, Butch Tropez and his family had a great day on the water while fishing with our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet at Muertos Bay. Check out the great variety including yellowtail, big cabrilla, jack crevalle, sierra, and triggerfish. They only had one day to fish and made the most of it. The triggerfish ended up at dinner at our Tailhunter Restaurant in La Paz.

You always remember that first fish! Kogen Brown from W. Linn, Oregon is all smiles with his first roosterfish. The 11-year-old released his fish too!
LAS ARENAS PUTS OUT VARIETY – LA PAZ NOT YET READY
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of March 14-21, 2016
It was a pretty nice week for fishing this past week. Very spring-like conditions finally with temps in the 80’s and just a light breeze most days. The week was highlighted by a decent mix of fish and also for the first time, we finally sent pangas out’ve La Paz. We haven’t been sending out our La Paz boats since about November because of the severe winter winds we’ve been experiencing.
With better conditions, we had the boats out there with mixed results. Some yellowtail were seen and lost and none boated. There were some small rooster fish and cabrilla and triggerfish but that was about it. However, this week we’ll have more boats out and hopefully better reports as we work the waters better and if the winds continue to diminish.
The better fishing was still with our Tailhunter Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay fleet. There really was an amazing variety of species.
Along with some nice 20-30 pound yellowtail, we had some hookups around Cerralvo Island on wahoo which continue to seem to hang out around the island and some of the other high spots. Both species seem to have an affinity for slow trolled Rapalas, especially the dark ones. But, it’s a great welcome surprise that we’ve had wahoo around for almost a year now. No one is complaining!
Speaking of Rapalas and other crank style baits, it’s a good thing they’re working because live bait continues to be difficult to get in quantity so along with lures, dead and frozen bait is working but resulting in some nice catches of some of the biggest cabrilla I’ve seen in a long time as well as sierra, jack crevalle, amberjack, pargo, bonito and other species.
…BUT WAIT!!!
Just going to publication of this week’s fishing report today (Sunday) and some of our boats today that fished La Paz ended up finding fish! Schools of small dorado and pargo that were especially good for the kids. The fish were right off Isla Ballena a small outcropping off Espirito Santo Island where a bunch of floating weed was found. Check out this photo of Captain Boli with Ben Walkerly. Nice day!

HAPPY TRAILS AND THANK YOU!

My honey and I. What a grand time you have shows us! Thank you for an amazing 3 months! Now back home to La Paz!
We’ve been on the road since before Christmas. And now 3 months later, we’ve come to the end of the trail for this year.
We’ve criss-crossed the country through 11 different states and met and spoken with thousands of amigos at all the biggest sportsmans shows in the western U.S. After 21-years in this business, these trips continue to re-inforce what a beautiful country we have and moreso the wonderful folks who live there. We’ve been greeted with smiles and welcomed with hospitality no matter where we went. Jill and I cherish this time and each and every moment.
We started with our first show of the year driving to icy Billings, Montana. Then to Denver, Colorado. Then because of heavy snow, we had a 500-mile “detour” through New Mexico and Arizona to get to Sacramento, CA. After that, we drove to the Seattle area at the Puyallup Fairgrounds followed by the huge show in Portland, Oregon.
Then, it was onto Yakima, Washington. Then, Jill and I split up.
I did the Fred Hall show in Long Beach CA while Jilly hit the road to cover us in Boise, Idaho.
We got together again to do the ISE show in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Then, we finished out by splitting up again! Jill held the booth at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in San Diego. I spent the week in Salt Lake City.
And so we close this chapter with a huge MUCHAS GRACIAS to each and every one of you who took the time to say hi and chat with us in our booths. And we look forward to seeing so many of you in La Paz this year.
Let’s get onto the fishing season! Vamos a pescar!
That’s our story!
