La Paz – las ARenas/ Muertos Bay/ Bahia Suenos Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 1-7, 2023
MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…
It’s sounding like a broken record lately, but often, it’s important to report what is NOT happening so folks get the whole picture.
Basically, fishing was NOT happening this past week, but it has not really been happening for weeks as winds kept things rough and blustery as often happens between November and April. It’s off-season specifically for that reason. It’s too rough to be out unless you’re a windsurfer or kiteboarder.
However, this past week even witnessed rainfall as well on-and-off for two days.
Just being honest. I tell everyone before they book with us this time of year that weather can be “iffy.” We had folks interested in fishing and others who were hoping to get out diving and snorkeling. In all situations, when we saw the weather forecasts, we told them it was not going to happen.
This coming week doesn’t look much better. Although there’s no rain in the extended forecast, as of this writing, the port captain has shut down all boat traffic until further notice . That means no boat traffic is allowed in or out of the harbor because of the winds.
Hopefully, things will calm down a bit soon because we do know that there’s fish to be caught. That includes dorado, sierra, jacks, yellowtail, pargo, snapper, cabrilla and even some wahoo. However, as long as there are storms happening north of the border, it will have an effect on the weather down in our areas.
WHALESHARK SEASON CANCELLED
Swimming with the whalesharks will have to wait this year. Normally, the season runs October to April. However, because of lack of animals, the season wasn’t even opened until December.
Normally, the animals are hanging out in the shallow waters of La Paz Bay. However, because there are so few whalesharks, the remainder of the whaleshark season has been suspended until further notice.
THANK YOU SALT LAKE CITY!
Good to see old friends and meet new ones at the Western Hunt Show. Our amigos here are all celebrating the fact that all of them will be coming to see us this June!
Thank you to everyone who came to visit us at the massive Western Hunting Expo in downtown Salt Lake City. Wow! What a great show and so great to chat with so many of you. Estimates that almost 50,000 attendees came to the show over 4 days! Just incredible. Here we are re-packing our booth.
We are now on the road having left the snows of Salt Lake City and headed towards S. California for the Bart Hall Fishing & Boating Show in San Diego at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.
After a 3 year hiatus, the Hall Shows are back and everyone is excited. This will be the first of 3 shows in S.California and we hope to see you there!
So, we’re brushing off the snow and headed to sunny So. Cal!
hey Jonathan, Hope all well. Thinking of heading down in April for some fishing. Good time of the year? or maybe a bit later? Need some La Paz in my life again! thanks, Kristin
