WINTER TUNA BITE? SERIOUSLY?
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 4-11, 2018
Our fishing report this week is almost identical to last week. Not many folks fishing this time of year. Typical windy days and then great sunny days and the key is really figuring out which days will be windy or not. On the days it’s windy there’s two choices. Either stay ashore and figure a different day to fish or go out and fish inshore where we’re catching the usual structure fish like pargo, cabrilla or snapper. Just a little outside, bonito, sierra and jack crevalle add to the catch. Maybe the occasional dorado.
However, on the calmer days when we can move off just a bit further, especially over to Cerralvo Island, there’s yellowtail, big dog tooth snapper and the SURPRISE!!!! ….some decent 15-30 pound yellowfin tuna. Slow trolling deep running Rapalas, live sardines and chunked frozen squid have been working best.
Normally, we don’t see these tuna out here this time of year. The tuna are usually a spring / fall fish for us, but this is a real nice bonus. There’s a spot of tuna off the south end of Cerralvo Island holding the fish but it’s all dependent on being able to make that quick run over if the wind and waves allow. Fortunately, this past week there were some good days to make the run because if it’s blowing, it’s also hard to get the bait!
This would be nice if it holds out. I’m not sure if these are left-over fish from last season or we’re onto the beginning of a super new season! Will keep you posted for sure! Pretty cool stuff!
THANKS PORTLAND! GRACIAS SALT LAKE CITY!
Our 2018 Tailhunter Road Tour has Jilly and I splitting up and headed in different directions this past week. Jilly covered the super Great Western Hunting and Conservation Show in Salt Lake City, UT. I held the fort in our booth at the Pacific Northwest Sportsmans Show in Portland, Oregon!
Wow…what killer fun shows! Thank you everyone who came to visit! When we’re alone it sometimes makes it hard to chat as much as we’d like to, but we sure appreciated seeing you and big thanks also to all of you who booked trips with us this year! We’re looking forward to the visit. We’ll have some fun!
Next, we split up again . I’ll be in Bakersfield and Jilly head to Boise Idaho. Come visit and we hope to see you there!
That’s our story!
