FISHING OK BUT NOT MANY FISHING
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 11-25, 2018
MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…
Town is kinda quiet these days. Nice time to be down here to enjoy some sunshine! You have the beaches to yourself!
When you can only squeeze in one day to fish in between bouts of wind and you make a great day out’ve it…Elijah Rush from El Cajon, CA got a handful of dorado, a tuna and some pargo (not pictured) for the ice chest!
Typical catch right now. Some snapper. Some pargo. Maybe some dorado.
As far as conditions, it wasn’t as bad as it has been when it’s been windy and rough with port closures. Actually, it was pretty nice overall. Sun’s out and a nice time to be in town with day time temps like a postcard in the high-70’s to low-80’s and night time temps in the high-60’s. Breezes kicking up to about 15 mph, but mostly later.
You can see why lots of snowbirds are “escaping” into town right now and we’re getting inquiries from Minnesota, Canada, Montana and North Dakota! No matter how “bad” our weather is, the only snow you’ll find is in a margarita glass.
But, by the same token, not many folks fishing. Almost no-one as a matter of fact. The folks coming to town are looking for sunshine and putting their toes in the sand.
The waters are still rougher than normal. In fact, last week several days the port was closed to all boat traffic coming or going. So, even if it’s calm in the bay, it can be crazy outside. Even, inside the bay it can be churning.
Two weeks ago, an independent dive boat overloaded with more than 2 dozen divers ignored the closures and went out. It got swamped and sank! Fortunately, everyone was picked up from what we heard.
However, we did get a few folks out. On the days it was really windy, we couldn’t go.
If it was moderately windy we were still able to fish inshore for some cabrilla, snapper, bonito and jacks. Weather permitting, if we could get just a little outside, there’s some dorado and tuna still hanging out.
Live bait has been an issue because of the rougher weather pounding the shallow bait areas so we’re using mostly dead bait or lures lately.
WHALE WATCHING SEASON COMING UP
Don’t forget our annual Whale Watching Season at Bahia Magdalena runs from January to March. Contact us for more info about a great family event and the opportunity to see these magnificent animals up close like you’ve never imagined!
That’s my story!
