DORADO DOMINATE!
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of June 1-7, 2021
MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…
Dave Lindell has visited us many times over the years and always finds a good fish or two, like this nice roosterfish he caught and released with Captain Armando outside of Bahia Muertos. Dave is from Pendleton, Oregon.
Just a great shot! Big bulls in the hands of our San Diego amigos. Ryan Brock, John Stone and Jeff Correia ran into a nice school of dorado north of La Paz. There were more fish in the box.
Coral Hart always insists she catches more and bigger fish than husband, Jeremy.
We still have some nice grade pompano hanging out in our waters. John Stone is taking this one home.
Captain Jorge has a thumbs-up for Darren Robinson’s snapper that’s going to get added to the fish box for the day.
Dr. James Good from Denver just has too much fun! This particular day he hooked over 20 dorado and released most of them, but this huge bull is coming back to the freezer.
This is as good a photo as it gets. This is Baja. Just a pretty shot of our amigo from Denver, John Lowdermilk and his roosterfish. Fish was released.
Her biggest fish, gets a hand from Captain Alfredo for the photo. Tricia Kidman from Salt Lake City is all smiles.
Pound-for-pound maybe the toughest fighting fish we have down here, especially when they are horse-sized like this bonito caught by Darren Robinson.
One lonely tuna caught at the south end of Cerralvo Island got us all excited. Other fish were seen, but weren’t interested. Frankly, I think the fish was attracted to Bill Johnson’ great fishing shirt! Bill is another of our amigos from Denver.
A graduation trip after he just finished up at Texas A & M and starts work this summer, Quinn Mattson has double fisted dorado in hand .
Yes, marlin have started to show up finally. Tim Dummler with a pretty catch-and-release of this billfish.
Visiting us for the first time from Florida where he’s a professional chef, Preston Hix got into the dorado bite north of La Paz.
Another of our new Tailhunter amigos visiting for the first time, Brent Wischnack had a great few days with us and gets a quick photo with Captain Joel and a pair of nice dorado.
All the way from Massachusetts, Rich England’s day produced alot of action including several catch-and-release roosterfish like this one!
Alway fun. He never has a bad day, Rick Kasper (right) with amigo, Steve Shaolin, pose with 4 of their dorado headed to the freezers.
David Mkrtychev got his first roosterfish this trip fishing just outside of Bahia Muertos. The fish was released.
A tough fish to pull out’ve the rocks, John Stone adds this nice pargo to the fish box.
Alex Golubev has two more dorado to bring back to shore after fishing in the channel between Las Cruces and Cerralvo Island.
Steve Seeley’s first day and first trip to see us produced 5 roosterfish. All were released.
Gary Wagner has a knack for hitting big cabrilla out’ve the rocks and reefs around his place at Rancho Costa in Bahia Muertos.
Texas in the house! Duane and Quinn Mattson have some meat to take home!
Overall, the fishing just got one week better than last week and that week was one of the best period of fishing we have had in a long time. With great sunny weather and water’s continuing to warm and clear up, the schools of dorado around Espirito Santo Island and in the channel between the peninsula and the northern part of Cerralvo Island continued to be the main focus.
The dorado bite is producing some of the biggest and most plentiful dorado we have seen in years. Alot of that probably has much to do with the lack of fishing all last year during the pandemic. Fish this time of year are normally averaging about 10 pounds. This year, most fish are 20-40 pounders.
Sometimes, the bite starts slow and it takes a bit to find the right spot or right school. Some boats might do better than others on any given day. However, overall, limits or near limits of dorado are typical.
In addition to the dorado, numerous other species continue to help bed rods and produce alot of variety. Most encouraging are the marlin that we’re starting to see in our waters plus a smattering of tuna and wahoo.
Onto that, add in roosterfish between 10 and 50 pounds near the shores (all released); some huge bonito; jack crevalle, pargo, amberjack, the occasional yellowtail and sierra, pompano, trevally, rainbow runner, grouper and snapper and folks are getting plenty of action.
This week, American Airlines initiated the first direct flights into La Paz from the U.S from Dallas and Phoenix. These flights will continue until the beginning of September. This is the first time in almost a decade that we have direct flights from the U.S. to La Paz.

Tailhunter Fish Report 
He lies, not one bull dorado has been caught in Bahia de los stenosis this week,, Do Not Believe His Lies. Wait a month and you will catch them .
Wow, Rob! If you don’t believe my reports which have come out pretty much every week for over 25 years and 1000 clients a year, please don’t read them. If you are on the beach every day and see every boat, and talk to every skipper and see every captain’s catch, your comment would have some validity. I have photos of bull dorado from last week that did not make the report because they were bad photos and quite simply, I didn’t have room for them. Or they were excessively bloody. I welcome your comments and invite you to write me directly! Really!! I don’t need to lie. People book with us a year or two in advance and we are usually sold out many months in advance. We’re on our 3rd generation of clients. If you would like to see some of the dorado from last week, please write me tailhunterfishinglapaz@gmail.com. Wishing you a great evening and many blessings!
