U.S. WEATHER IMPACTS WEATHER SOUTH OF

THE BORDER

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Dec. 21-31, 2022

MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Again, not much to report.  Most of the past few days were again blown out by strong winds.

As I often mention, winter time, fierce north winds blow down the Sea of Cortez making it not only rough and choppy but at times unsafe, especially if you’re headed north of town since the winds come out’ve the north and you need to go north to get out’ve La Paz Bay.

Alot of folks coming down are here to grab some sunshine and there’s no shortage of that, but then are surprised about the winds.  Folks seem to think that weather stops being bad at the U.S. border.

Not so!  If there’s storms in the north as there have been the last few weeks in the states, then it has a direct affect on weather in Baja and Mexico.  In fact, the storms have been quite severe over the holidays and it’s been reflective on the winds in La Paz.  They have been stronger and more severe than normal.

About the only folks out are locals and commercial fishermen who either need to work to feed their families or can pick-and-choose which dates are better to be on the water given windows of calmer conditions.  I’m hearing there have been catches of sierra, some yellowtail, a few dorado (must be some warm water around), plus reef fish like snapper, triggerfish, cabrilla and some pargo.

The current forecast for the week shows more winds and maybe two days that are borderline in terms of getting on the water.  The last few weeks, we’ve had to cancel any reservations that were made.  These days it’s about a 50-50 chance of getting canceled or blown out.  Hate to be a buzzkill, but would rather be honest about expectations.

TAILHUNTER SHOW SEASON STARTING
