THE MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and REST OF THE STORY…
Now this is a yellowtail! Just off Espirito Santo Island, Desmond Sjaufoekloy took this hefty beast earlier in the week.
Cabrilla like this tasty trophy are on the chew right now in the rocky areas. Jeff Brown poses with a beauty.
Desmond took this fat cabrilla to dinner at our Tailhunter Restaurant.
Captain Joel with Rod Brown and a nice mix of yellowtail, barred pargo and snapper.
Just when we were getting all comfortable and figured winter was done with us, I had a feeling she still had a few gusts left in her. Sure enough, like “Game or Thrones” winter came back to remind us we’re not quite out’ve range yet.
The week started out sort or OK. But we could tell it was going to ramp up again. Our folks got a nice mix of fish including yellowtail, some big fat cabrilla and other species plus a smattering of dorado.
But, with each day, the winds got stronger. Towards the latter part of the week, it was not just gusting, it was ripping and even the La Paz Port Captain shut down all boat traffic. No fishing…diving…swimming with whale sharks…no boats coming in and out.
And, I get it. Can’t blame him. It was blowing white caps even in the bay, even with the sun out. Better to err on the side of safety. Heck, even on the “calmer” days our folks were getting bounced and wet.
It did calm down just a tad by the end of the week, but not much and about the only thing we could raise in the rough water was bonito.
The coming week, it looks a little better. Fingers crossed.
That’s our story! Happy Easter everyone. Have a safe and blessed holidays.
