THINGS “GUARDEDLY” BETTER!

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Aug. 29-Sept. 5, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WEATHER: Cooler than normal, but with the high humidity, it’s still warm and I’ve had some folks go down this week because they didn’t listen and didn’t hydrate! Highs in the upper 90’s and nightime in the upper 70’s

WATER: More blue water than we’ve seen in over a month. That cold green stuff has diminished and surface temps are in the mid-80’s now. It has stabilized the fishing somewhat and improved somewhat although still not where it should be. But definitely better!

SPECIES HOOKED THIS WEEK: Dorado, roosterfish, marlin, bonito, jack crevalle, pompano, snapper, pargo, cabrilla, triggerfish, rainbow runner

FISHING SCALE of 1:10: 4

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY

First-timers from Oregon, great to have Chet Sater, wife Lisa and son Tanner with us. A pretty good day on the dorado bite plus one pargo added in! Captain Gerardo in the background with the photobomb!

Biggest dorado in a long time! Captain Pancho helps out Darrell Statin on a trophy bull he took on light tackle.

On their anniversary! Eric Killen is a big-game outfitters in Alabama and had been pursuing roosterfish on his bucket list. With wife Mary, he actually caught and released TWO nice roosters on their anniversary!

Our newlywed! I’ve known Emily Duncan since she was about 5 years old and she’s fished with us often. She brought new husband Matt who has never fished this year and broke him in. Her dad, Bob looks like he’s taking one of the dorado with him someplace! Bob has been my friend some 30 years!

Dan McKinley with the right kind! A beautiful bull on the light gear! Dan visits us every year from Washington.

Mike and Krista Zayak run sportboats out’ve San Diego and know how to fish. They had just one day on the water and made the most of it with a nice load of dorado and pargo.

Captain Jorge give Liz and Tony Taylor a hand posing with a trophy bull dorado and has a few others to clean on the cutting table!

Another day…more dorado! Tanner and mom, Liz, with a nice batch on the table headed for the freezer and back to Oregon.

Happy guy! Eric Killen with another catch-and-release rooster. Unusual to still have roosterfish around, but we have no problem with it. It’s been a wacky year for fishing!

A good day for Dan and Darrell!

Carrie McKinley with her biggest of the day. She took time off as a flight attendant to come visit us for the week with her family.

__________________________________

I won’t kid you.

Fishing is not where it should be by any stretch compared to what it usually is this time of year.

But, in all honesty, it definitely showed some better signs this past week since the last week or weeks of reports! And any improvement is sure better than what we had!

The biggest thing to mention is that the water conditions have vastly improved. For over a month, we’ve been plagued by cold, dirty, green waters that come from down deep and from the south. Normally, waters should be blue clear and warm!

We would have green water mixed with blue waters. Warm water on top and cold water below. Blue water would change to green water and vice versa in a matter of hours! We were running and burning gas all over the ocean just looking for the better spots. At one point our pangas were running 10-20 miles out looking for the blue waters! Unheard of!

However, even that was no guarantee. Where were the dorado and other blue-water species we normally hit this time of year. Instead, we were catching cold water species like yellowtail, amberjack, rainbow runners, pompano and trevally that we usually stop seeing in May or early June. Maybe the occasional dorado. But that was it.

I think the fish were as confused as us!

Well, over the last 8-10 days, waters have changed remarkably. Surface temps are hitting 83-86 degrees. There’s more blue water to be found and less erratic conditions.

Consequently, not surprisingly the bite has improved somewhat! More dorado showing. A few more limits of fish that we have not seen in weeks! Some nicer bulls in the 20-40 pound class as well.

That doesn’t mean we have completely turned around, but it’s encouraging as long as the waters continue to improve and there are no big weather changes (like storms or hurricanes to jack things up!).

We’re still hunting and pecking for the right spots. The fishing can still be spotty and some boats will get fish and others really struggle. One days the fish are on. Next day not so much. If you do find fish, you might only have one or two shots at the good stuff. If you miss or break off or come unbuttoned that might be your last shot of the day!

Also, I think the fish are just coming around. Sometimes when we find the right spot, we can see there are fish there, but they just won’t eat! But, at least we’re SEEING fish now. Before, we couldn’t even find fish!

What has improved really is the CHANCE of getting into the good stuff!

In prior weeks, your CHANCES were not good. This last week, we had some nice bright spots. Not only dorado, but a few billfish, roosterfish (should not be around this time of year!), lots of bonito and some of the inshore stuff for pargo and cabrilla can be wide open!

We’ll just keep our fingers crossed and hope things improve!

That’s my story!

UP DOWN SIDEWAYS…NO WAY TO PREDICT

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muerto Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Weeks of Aug. 13-28, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN REPORT

WEATHER: Cooler than normal, but still hot by anyone’s standards just NOT AS HOT AS USUAL. Daytime temps in the high 90’s.

WATER: Colder than normal as well. And greener. And dirtier. That’s the problem messing up the fishing. Currents are funky as well.

FISH HOOKED: Dorado, marlin, sailfish, tuna, roosterfish, jacks, cabrilla, snapper, pargo, pompano, trevally

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

There’s dorado around, but we should be plugging the boats full of dorado this time of year. We really have to hunt for them these days.

The marlin bite that was so good earlier in the summer has tapered off, but there’s still billfish if you can find the blue water.

Our good amigos, Daniel and his dad, Jim Bovee with Captain Pancho come several times a year and know fishing in our waters as well as anyone. They spent 3 days and had to work hard for their fish and ran as much as 20 miles out trying to find the blue water.

_____________________________________

I DID NOT FORGET YOU! And YES, we’re OK!

Thanks to everyone who checked up on us and many apologies that it’s been about 2 1/2 weeks since the last report.

I’ve been diligently doing the fishing reports for almost 30 years…the videos for almost 20 years and regretfully, some personal and medical issues came up that were unavoidable and needed attention.

Then, a double whammy…I was ready to get out a report, but…

Not many photos since fishing hasn’t been that great and no one needs to see photos of 12″ tuna and 4 pound dorado
I accidentally pressed “DELETE” and the few photos I had ready for the report vanished! Just like that. My bad. My fault.

So, that’s what happened. I know alot of you folks kinda rely on getting the weekly report and thanks to everyone who checked in on me. We’re good to go!

Honestly, you haven’t missed much since the last report. In fact, not much has changed.

Fishing remains erratically perplexing.

Full discloser honesty without the sugar coating…

It’s August. Almost September. We should be knee deep in blue water pelagic species like dorado, billfish, tuna and such. It’s not like that.

Waters are still cooler/ colder than normal and very off-color and dirty instead of the pretty blue waters we should be enjoying. It’s also been a bit rougher than normal as southern winds keep bumping into us and nothing is as it should be.

We’re having to hunt hard to find the blue water and favorable condition. The captains are working hard chasing the right stuff and guests are being patient. The problem is that every day is different. The locations change. The water changes. What worked yesterday doesn’t necessarily work today. One boat finds fish. The boat next to it can’t get a bite. One boat catches dorado. The other boat only gets cold water species like snapper and triggerfish and cabrilla.

So, I think the fish are as confused as we are. The fishing results are mixed and the species we are finding are mixed. I can’t tell you if you go fishing if you have a better chance at dorado, marlin or needlefish. It’s just that kind of year.

Got alot of folks coming to visit in the next few week so hopefully things will get better. Just gotta hang in there. We’re doing all we can and wish I had a crystal ball or magic wand. In my 30 years this has been the most frustrating of seasons. But, if you don’t put a line in the water, you definitely won’t catch anything. I just can’t tell you what you’re gonna hook!

That’s my story!

IMPROVED FISHING DURING FULL MOON…(Sort of…)

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of July 20-27, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WEATHER: It’s all over the place. It’s definitely hot in the afternoons…blazing actually, but not as hot as normal. Mornings and nights can be cool or hot and humid. It’s different every day. It can also be very windy and breeze or sometimes not even a whisper of wind.

WATER: It’s like the weather. And directly related. We have warm surface water and blue clear conditions or a few yards away cold green dirty water. Waters can be flat calm and an hour later bumpy as heck. Never seen anything like this in 30 years.

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK: Dorado, marlin, sailfish, bonito, tiny tuna, jack crevalle, yellowtail, amberjack, pompano, trevally, pargo, cabrilla, triggerfish…sharks!

THE MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ FISHING REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE AND THE REST OF THE STORY…

Marie McClelland from Park City UT, visits us every year and has a knack for big fish, especially dorado like this one. She was out with Captain Victor.

Tom Wilkens brought his daughter, Kaitlyn with him for her first visit. They were out with Captain Gerardo for this pair of dorado.

My old high school classmate Eddie Falcon who lives up in Carson City NV area has a colorful dorado on the gaff. Check out the flat ocean!

As I recall, Tanner was out at the 88 bank when they hit a school of better dorado like this one with Captain Pancho. This was Tanner’s 2nd trip this year with Tailhunters

Braedon and Steward Pierson had themselves a ball with the spinning rods and some fun-sized schoolie dorado.

Our good amigo, Kip Slaugh, on his 2nd trip to us this year from Salt Lake City had a double marlin hook up and released both!

Jim and Brenda Bovee from San Diego have fished with us already 2 times. They got a quick limit of dorado then found of a school of litte baby yellowfin tuna…not football size…Pop Warner size!

This is a NICE dorado. Connor is about 6’1″! He was out with Captain Luis north of La Paz Bay.

Daniel Bovee with his favorite Captain, Pancho and a jack crevalle they released. Always good to see Daniel down here.

Brian and Marie McClelland with another bull for the fish box!

Matt Slaugh looks pretty happy with this striped marlin! The fish was released.

Eddie and Debbie Falcon with first-day’s catch of dorado going home to Nevada with them.

Gabe Aguilar with Captain Alfredo fought this striper for a long time finallly getting it to the boat.

Daniel Bovee and his mom, Brenda, found a patch of schoolie-dorado near Bahia Muertos.

Seeing an abnormal lot of sharks this past month of many species. My captain say it’s because there’s so much baitfish in the waters for them and it’s actually a good sign.

Tanner with another big bull! Big head on this one!

Brenda and Jim had a good day with limits of dorado releasing many.

____________________________________________

Well…we had a full moon this past week or so to add to our fishing issues.

That makes most folks cringe when they hear about fishing on a full moon.

But, pump the brakes! The fishing actually got a bit better during the full moon! Given how erratic and difficult the fishing had been the past month, this was great to have. Nothing great to be honest, but anything is better than what it had been!

The waters still remain weird. Cold dirty water in many spots, but then right next to warm blue water. And it changes all the time.

Got in the water on the beach and it should have been warm. Instead if was COLD! I got goose bumps. I walked down the beach about 100 yards and the water was like bathwater! That’s the way it is out fishing!

Here’s the rub…yes, we got dorado which bit a bit better this week. We actually got some limits here and there with guys releasing fish. I haven’t used the word “limits” in a few weeks.

Nothing big. Mostly school-sized 5-10 pound fish. Way off for what we SHOULD be catching, but at least they are biting. There are some larger 20-40 pounders around as well if you check the photos above. But, whereas in the last several seasons post-Covid where we had lots of big bulls swimming around, there are fewer big fish. And, if you hook one…and you lose it…well, that might be your only shot at a big boy.

That’s the warm water stuff. The rub is that we are getting COLD water fish! IN JULY!

This is unheard of in my 30 years here, but we’re getting yellowtail 10-25 pounds. We’re getting amberjack. We hooked pargo liso that we have spawning here in the springtime in April and May. I thought we were well on our way towards summertime fishing, but to be honest, this is more like spring-time fishing! It’s crazy. It’s un-predicatable.

The cold water fish just suddenly showed up again.

As well, another strange occurance…more marlin and sailfish than I have ever seen! Most are getting released, but some boats are getting multiple hook-ups on billfish…even when they are not trying and DO NOT WANT billfish.

Here’s another little funky fact…more sharks in the water than I have ever seen as well. Folks are hooking makos, blues, hammerheads, lemon sharks, thresher sharks and others…all sizes. There’s a ton of baby shark in the bay as well. Don’t worry, the sharks aren’t bothering anyone, but they’re a pain in the backside to hook them and have them tear up your line and gear after long fights or short fights then trying to unhook and release them.

My captains say that the sharks are here because there’s so much bait and feed in the water for them and this includes large schools of TINY SMALL tuna! Even smaller than bonito. Perfect munchy-size food for sharks as well as the larger apex predators like the marlin and sailfish.

So…bottom line…fishing did get better. But, nothing to blow whistles over…just yet! We can only hope and keep fishing! Our captains are working super hard and are super frustrated as well. Even staying out extra time some days to keep pushing to find fish.

Likewise, the guests are being patient and hanging with us as well. It’s strange because several boats could be on the same spot. Several boats are hanging fish and the boats right next to them can’t get a nibble. Or hot spots become cold spots and vice versa. There’s just no logic.

We just have to keep at it!

That’s our story!

STRANGE OCEAN- STRANGE BITERS

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of July 12-19, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WATER – Just weird and strange. Blue water mixed with cold ugly dirty green water. And seemingly changing daily. Hot spots become cold spots. And vice versa. The ocean is not it’s usual self these past weeks. Temps on the surface ranging all over from 75-85 degrees. Colder down deep.

WEATHER – Strange as well. Mornings are actually cooler than normal some days. It’s July yet not a bad idea to have a windbreaker or sweatshirt. Then blazing hot later. Some days very very windy and rough. Other days, not a ripple.

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK – Dorado, yellowtail, rainbow runners, marlin, sailfish, roosterfish, pargo liso, snapper, dog-tooth snapper, cabrilla, triggerfish, bonito, jack crevalle

FISHING on the 1-10 SCALE: 4

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Jimmy Fontenot from San Angelo, TX, got this big trophy rooster off Las Arenas. Jimmy is a champion taxidermist and big game hunting outfitter and owns Wildlife Connections in TX. First time with us! The fish was released.

Mike and Pam Lara from S. California, I could not stop laughing whenever they were around because they always seemed to be having just the best time. They slammed dorado with us and took home a big batch of fillets! Also, first time visitors with Tailhunter.

Ahhh…Dolores Ehlers with her favorite Captain Pancho has been with us for many many years and we can’t help but call her “Mom.” She’s a treasure and she can fish too! She also makes a mean meatloaf sandwich! 😁

Weird and strange! Cold water fish like yellowtaill suddenly showed up this week! Right off the northern and southern ends of Cerralvo Island and north Espirito Santo Island as well as the Punta Arenas lighthouse! Gary and Miles Wagner with a nice pair. Gary owns the Rancho Costa at Bahia Muertos!

Bryan Gadol only had 2 days to fish with us and had quite a time. Fishing with Captain Armando check out the striped marlin. Great photo and the fish was released.

Sunrise roosterfish for Mike Frazier. One of several he caught and released! His wife claims hers was bigger! See the rest of the photos below!

Kelli Frazier made sure to let husband, Mike, know that HER roosterfish was larger than the ones he caught! Big trophy in the photo and they released all their roosters!

Love this photo and this young man! Mike Novotny with a gorgous blue bull dorado and his “deckhand” of the day, Dylan, son of our popular Captain Luis.

He wanted one and he got one! Randy Fontenot from Texas poses with his big rooster before releasing it. Brother Jimmy stands by!

My high school classmate from more than 50 years ago, Eddie Falcon, behind the mask with his super wife, Debbie and deckhand Dylan (son of Captain Luis) near Espirito Santo Island. Eddie battled this bull dorado with a bad shoulder and back and had been tussling already with several big bonito when the dorado slammed him! But, he got it and that’s what we made for dinner for them at Tailhunter that night!

Not quite sure whether Aaron or Kyle caught this nice marlin. Both of them laughed when I asked, but they said it was off the bucket list! They were with Captain Julio off Espirito Santo Island.

Richard Kraft is with us all week and has done pretty nicely each day with a variety of species and good action. I think this was his first day catch. Dorado and bonito!

Another sample of colder water moving in! Amigo, Gary Wagner, owner of Rancho Costa in Bahia Muertos with a pargo liso which we usually catch in the early spring. I’ve never seen them in July!

Cheyenne Lee on her birthday with husband Brody from Utah. First timers withus and some nice dorado to bring home. Check out Cheyenn’s bull! I believe she also hooked a marlin that day.

Gary Wagner with wife Tracy and daughter Brittany just off his place at Rancho Costa at Bahia Muertos with a dandy rooster for the quick photo and release. They got 2 nice ones on the day.

Lots of dorado meat for John Ehlers to take home to Colorado! John has been with us for almost 20 years and loves fishing with Captain Pancho.

Might be the best photo of the week! Nancy Novotny with Captain Gerardo and her big striper! It was a big time battle and Nancy released the fish swimming away strong!

Again, I’m not sure if Aaron or Kyle caught this big dorado, but either way, it’s a great fish and the meat went home to the same house!

Louisiana boys, Steve Dupuis and Scott Sebastien. Double marlin and both released!

First rooster for Brody to start the morning! Quick photo and release!

Pancho and John Ehlers with a big striper. John tried to release the fish, but was unable to revive it. He generously donated the meat!

Great shot and colors for Jim Lipkowski with his morning dorado fishing with Captain Armando.

In addition to a trophy rooster, Randy really wanted a trophy dorado as well. I think this one fit the bill nicely!

Steve’s got his rooster for a fast photo and get him back in the water for a great release!

Bryan Gadol off Espirito Santo Island poses with another one for the box!

Birthday rooster fishing trip for Cheyenne! Right in the shallows off the island. She released the fish too!

Marlin and her daughter, Priscilla were sure fun to have visiting with us. Nice batch of dorado. Marline has been with us before, but Priscilla was on her first trip!

The ladies had fun this week. Mike Frazier helps Kelli with a feisty jack crevalle!

______________________________________________

In four words…THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!

In 30 years down here, I can’t remember ever running into these kinds of conditions!

I dunno. Like the rest of the world I can’t imagine we are immune from all the funky weird weather changes the rest of the world seems to be experiencing. However, what I’ve seen the last 3 weeks or so has been perplexing to say the least.

Let me cut to the chase.

Yes, we are finding fish.
Yes, we are catching big fish.
Yes, everyone is catching fish.

So, let’s get that out’ve the way right off the top.

But, the erratic conditions and un-predictable bite is driving us all crazy. Or maybe we’re just spoiled. We’re just so used to being red hot on fire fishing this time of the year!

A spot that’s hot one day is ice cold the next. Patches of blue clear water are right next to ugly green cold water.

Mornings can be cool and needing a sweatshirt. Or they can already be blazing warm with out a breeze. And yes, we have been having some unseasonably windy and rough days that should NOT be here and then calm flat days when we pray for a breeze on the water as respite from the oven-like heat of the day.

Somedays are humid. Some days are incredibly pleasant.

Earlier this week, thousands of baitfish washed up on the beaches of La Paz Bay. Attributed to the rapid heat of the water which caused an algae bloom which depleted the oxygen. BECAUSE the WATERS WERE TOO WARM.

Yet right outside the bay, the waters were TOO COLD and had turned green and dirty!

Go further out and you find 85 degree blue water.

The fish are as mixed up as we are. Nothing is for certain except our captains are working hard and ranging far and wide looking for the biters. Our guests are hanging tough and patient as well.

Dorado could bite one day. The next day same spot nothing. Or we suddenly are catching cold-water fish like pargo and yellowtail that NEVER bite in the summer in spots where they should not be!

Marlin are being pests or a great find everywhere depending on your viewpoint. We sure are hooking a lot and for all the photos you see above 95% are getting released or broken off.

More sharks in the water than I have ever seen too.

There are schools of dorado in the 5 pound (mini mahi) that are around, but they aren’t consistent but then there are big free swimming 20-40 pounders here and there as well.

One boat is all over the fish. The boat 20 yards away can’t buy a fish bite. Some days Las Arenas is hot. Next day it’s cold. Same with La Paz. It runs different every day with no rhyme or reason.

One of our captains that has been red hot hitting home runs all season suddenly goes several days without hits.

Go figure .

All I can say is look at the photos. Come fishing. Most of our guests fish several days and you might have an off-day, but you will probably make up for it on another day. For sure, if you don’t have a line in the water you’re definitely NOT going to catch anything.

But, despite all the wackiness in the ocean, everyone is catching fish! Just don’t ask me what you’ll be catching!

Steve andn Scott!

Oh wait…we also have a full moon this week too! We’ll let you know next week how that impacts all the other variables right now!

That’s my story!

FISH GOT PICKY -WHAT CHANGED?

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of July 4-11, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WATER: Several weeks of southern winds and waves caused by those storms on the Eastern Coast of Mexico really turned our waters from blue to cold, cloudy and green in many areas. Directly affecting the fishing.

WEATHER: Cool mornings. HOT HOT HOT afternoons. Strange for July weather.

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK: Dorado, marlin, sailfish, tuna, yellowtail, bonito, jack crevalle, cubera snapper, yellowsnapper, triggerfish, roosterfish, cabrilla, pargo

FISHING ON 1-10 SCALE: 3 😳😳😳🥲

MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO FISHING REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Captain Luis gives first-timer Jessica Lister from Oregon a hand with a huge bull dorado that’s about as tall as she is!

Steve “Roosterfish King” Bryan from Seattle spends 2 weeks with us each year and only targets big roosterfish. He was in last week’s report and he’s got more fish for this week. All released!

David Jones from Oklahoma with a beast bull dorado!

Always too fun with Taylor Sering from Oregon and Captain Luis. Finally landed his sailfish! Fish could not be released.

Wonderful first-timer with us from Bakersfield CA, Dennis Slater had a good week on dorado and roosterfish.

Sal Lopez has been fishing with us for a couple of decades, but he finally landed (and released) his first roosterfish and it was a gem. He was pretty excited!

The Henke Brothers, David and Bo, our long time, amigos were with Captain Chito and landed a really colorful bull mahi!

Lots of great action on the jack crevalle that sure put up big fights. Austin Lister with a big smile and a jack!

All the way from Indianapolis, Brian Bauer with his wife, Rita, could not have been more excited with this big striper he battled on light tackle for a few hours! His first. Fish could not be released.

Great to have Kevin Lister come spend vacation time with us for his first-time La Paz trip. Got himself a nice jack on the gaff!

Fresh color on Austin’s dorado! Great shot!

Kim Sebastian from Louisiana scooted out and almost didn’t make it down because of Hurricane Beryl. He’s been fishing all over the continents for years trying to get ONE roosterfish and never even got a nibble. His wife said he could have one more trip and one more try. First day with us and Captain Pancho, he racked this 80-pound class rooster! His wife was more excited than he was! Fish was released!

Steve Bryan with yet another nice roosterfish…caught and released!

These two characters are funny as heck. Steve Dupuis and Vance Robichaux from Louisiana caught and released 3 big roosters on the day!

After several years absence, it was great to have Craig Corda from Calexico back with us and he’s got a big smile and dorado fishing with Captain Pancho.

Young Owen Fujita is a very good angler and comes fishing with us every year with his dad, Corey. Don’t be fooled, Owen can fish and his dad always rocks as well. Nice rooster caught and released and great photo!

Steve and Kim with Captain Pancho…double D’s! Two big dorado on the day!

One of the best fishermen down here…Kevin Shiotani…big tuna off Cerralvo Island. Maybe 100 pounder. The photo doesn’t do justice to how thick this fish really is!

Cathy and Randy Corda only had 2 days to fish with us, but took home some good dorado fillets fishing with Captain Pancho.

Brian posing with one of his dorado before it hits the fillet table!

It’s legit! Taylor and Captain Luis with a bull that might not fit in the fish box!

Our own Tailhunter Jorge Romero slipped out for a day off driving everyone all over to go out with Captain Chito. Fishing was tough, but they got this big dorado just off the rocks in shallow water!

Gilberto is somewhere behind the mask, but I’m sure was pretty happy with this big gallo for the photo then release!

Always fun…jack crevalle on the end of a line! Craig with the photo and smile! Fish was released.

That big heavy powerful tail was about to smack Steve in the face when this photo was taken, but he got the feisty rooster back in the water!

__________________________________

I’ll cut right to the chase.

It wasn’t a very good week of fishing. Despite everyone’s best efforts, we struggled.

In the fishing biz, even down here, you have the occasional off day. Or maybe one or two boats just have bad luck. It happens. It’s called fishing. Other days make up for it or, if the fishing is off, it recovers pretty quickly, especially down here.

But, about 2 weeks ago fishing got pretty erratic and un-predictable.

It’s gotten worse since then!

It was hard to put a finger on it, but I think it’s a combination of factors.

One is those huge storms on the eastern side of Mexico the last 2-3 weeks that pushed across into Mexico affected our weather patterns here on the Pacific side. We have strong southern winds, big waves and stronger than usual currents.

Waters have gotten turned over. We have warm blue 85 degree water in some places, but then you run into big patches of colder off-color waters that are cloudy and dirty. That usually means cooler water from down deep has pushed to the surface.

On top of that, we cut open the stomachs of some of the caught fish and found their bellies full of little red shrimp! So, they are also full. No reason to eat more. Plenty of food elsewhere.

It has all really affected the bite. Normally we should be in full-turbo right now.

Instead, we’re struggling to find a handful or decent dorado or dorado bigger than 18″ or better action than bonito, jack crevalle and needlefish. It’s fun at first, but after that, pretty frustrating.

The dorado we have been seeing are some nicer grade 20-30 pound class fish, but not like it should be.

Marlin and sailfish are crazier than I have ever seen them. A good example was that the other day, I had 14 pangas out with about 30 anglers. Ten boats hooked at least one marlin or sailfish even though they were not trying. The billfish just happened to be feeding. All the billfish either broke off or were released. A few didn’t revive and most meat was donated.

Funny thing is that the few times where our guest specifically targeted billfish, they mostly caught zero! The boats that had no intention of catching billfish hooked billfish accidentally!

Thankfully, the roosterfish have hung around. Still some big hogs in the area including trophy-fish running 40-100 pounds! Larger ones have been lost. Still pretty thrilling to hook one of these on light tackle.

Our anglers have been great and patient and hung in there. Captains have worked extra hard. We can only keep pushing on. Hopefully, things will turn. If we don’t have lines in the water we definitely won’t catch anything. We’re still having fun!

ADIOS y VAYA CON DIOS OLD FRIEND

Cheers and Godspeed to Pops Henke our dear long-time Tailhunter friend. We’ll see you again, amigo!

THANK YOU AND KEEP THEM COMING

For all of you sending prayers and good thoughts for Jilly, thank you beyond words. She’s hanging in there and we appreciate you all! One day-at-a-time. Small victories. We’ll take them and each day is a gift and blessing! 😁👍🙏🙏🙏🙏

That’s my story

DORADO FINALLY START SHOWING UP

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of June 18-25, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WATER and WEATHER: No question, it gets hot during the day, but things are mixed. Some mornings can still be cool and blustery. Waters are generally blue and clear and getting wamer, but that big storm that his the southern U.S. last week moved over to Mexico then to our area bringing strong winds and some big waves. It clouded up the water and 1 day we were not able to fish. We even had a little rain one morning as well. Oh…and there has been real honest-to-goodness fog along the coast and up the mountains!

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK: Dorado, yellowtail, roosterfish, marlin, sailfish, jack crevalle, rainbow runners, triggerfish, bonito, barred pargo, yellow snapper, cabrilla, sierra, pompano, trevally and amberjack

FISHING ON A SCALE of 1-10: 6.5

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO FISHING REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Jim Stahlman has been fishing with us for many years, but said he had one of his best days ever landing a number of large dorado and yellowtail north of La Paz Bay.

Gerry Eichhorn from Edmonton Canada had a banner week with almost a dozen large roosters caught and released with Captain Victor.

Kyle Hoogervorst on his first visit to us got into the yellowtail very nicely while fishing with our Tailhunter La Paz fleet.

Love the cigar look! Steve Hoogervorst is funny as heck and poses here with a tough jack crevalle right off the sand at Punta Arenas. The fish was released.

Lou Salatich has a legit bull dorado here with Captain Armando. They also caught and released 2 marlin.

Vern Eichhorn with another rooster to add to the scorebox of fish released over the week! Vern is from Canada on his first trip with us.

Tino DiLeon and Bryan Hyland with big smiles and a full table of dorado and rainblow runners! I also see a cabrilla as well.

Our long-time amigo, Bob Sayre from Chicago has his hands (and mouth) full of bull dorado!

Jeremy Hart and Chase with a nice marlin in the boat. Marlin have gotten more active the last 2 weeks.

Art Torrez and Rich Sevaly with first-day dorado for the cooler and eating at Tailhunter for dinner!

Still some chunky yellowtail to be had. Jim Stahlman with another forkie for the ice chest!

Paul and Phil with a pair of tasty mahi on the beach at Muertos!

Gary Wagner at his place the Rancho Costa at Bahia Muertos with son Miles and an amigo with dinner…snapper, cabrilla and yellowtail!

Captain Armando give Lou Salatich a hand with his striper. The fish was released!

Margo Salatich and Captain Armando with another bull for day!

Tanner Pierson and son Braedon with Jim Bovee, our friends from San Diego with yellowtail and dorado fishing with our Tailhunter La Paz fleet.

Gerry and Vern with yet another big roosterfish for a quick photo and release!

Ryan’s first dorado fishing with grandma Margo and Captain Gerardo!

_____________________________________

Well…it was a good fishing week, but a weird weather week.

Yes, it’s summer, but that big storm that hit the southern coast of the U.S like Texas slammed there. Then, it was big enough to move across mainland Mexico where it made its presence felt then was strong enough to come all the way over to the Pacific side and affect things in Baja.

It produced some windy blustery days and some big swells and waves coming from the south. It even brought a bit of rain. The southern blow and swell made fishing a big difficult for our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet since we launch at Bahia Muertos which faces south. One day it even shut down the fishing.

Get this…we’ve even had FOG! Yup…fog. Real FOG! Go figure. Up on the hills and along the coast. Crazy crazy weather.

But overall, still a pretty OK fishing week.

No bones about it, this is a cooler time of year than normal. Although it can get blazing hot in the day, this isn’t our typical weather. Mornings can be cool. The surface temperature of the ocean is warm, but down deep the waters are still on the chilly side.

The result is that on top, the warming waters are finally bringin in the blue water species like dorado, marlin, sailfish and even a few tuna. However, we’re still seeing colder water fish like yellowtail, amberjack, rainbow runners and sierra.

Overall, still a crazy mix of fish that seems unpredictable from one day to the next.

Our Tailhunter La Paz Fleet are still finding some nice grade yellowtail up into the 30 pound class mixed in with some nicer 20-pound class dorado or larger. Plus the occasional billfish.

Our Tailhunter Las Arenas Fleet is where we’re getting the big mix of dorado, billfish, pargo, cabrilla, bonito, jack crevalle, roosterfish and more. However, getting live bait has been an issue as we’re having to run all the way over to the backside of Cerralvo Island to get live bait befoe we can even begin to start fishing.

Roosterfish are still around from 5 to about 60 pounds along the sandy and rocky areas for those of you coming in the next few weeks looking for that rooster on your bucket list.

Also, strangely, there’s a ton of sharks in the water! Never seen so many reports of sharks on the fishing grounds biting lines and chasing hooked fish! Crazy. But, there’s a whole bunch of little tiny tuna swimming around. They are smaller than bonito and the captains think that’s what’s bringing in the sharks!

Will keep you posted!

That’s my story!

WARM WATER FISH WAKING UP!

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of June 10-17, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

Weather: No doubt summer is here! It’s WARM and HOT in the daytimes. High 90’s to low 100’s, but not as much humidity as I might expect. Mornings surprisingly can be cool. I had to wear a sweatshirt some morning when putting folks on boats. Evenings are in the mid-70’s. Bring a light windbreaker or sweatshirt!

Water: Mostly blue and warming. Got some surface temps in the low 80’s now, but about 20-30′ down there’s a cooler thermocline and that’s why I think we’re getting fish like yellowtail and amberjack and other cold water species still hanging around.

Fish Hooked This Week: Roosterfish (up to 90+ pounds), jack crevalle, yellowtail (20-25 pounds), marlin, sailfish, amberjack, bonito, dorado, pargo, trevally, pompano, sierra, cabrilla, needlefish, triggerfish, rainbow runners.

Scale of 1-10: 6.5 to 7

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Somewhere back there is Gerry Eichhorn! He and his brother Vern came down all the way from Edmonton Canada and fished 6 straight days for big roosters! They caught and released 11 with Captain Victor!

Kelly Jimenez from Aurora Co, can fish! She and her husband have been fishing with us over 20 years. She always rocks it. Check outh the big yellowtail. They caught 10 of these hog ‘tails and others were lost in a crazy bite.

First-time visitor, Eric Granados with his first roosterfish not far off the sand at Punta Arenas. Fish was released.

From Ontario CA, Bruce Sakamoto was also visiting us for the first time and got quite a variety of fish like this slugger yellowtail.

Baltazar Sakamoto battled this striped marlin on light tackle for THREE hours! Jorge Soto helps out. They were not able to release the fish and hooked many other species as well.

One more for the camera! Vern Eichhorn and his brother, Gerry, from Canada hooked and released 11 of these brute roosterfish over 6 days with Captain Victor.

Behind that rooster dorsal fin is a happy fella named Keith Mitchell who really wanted to catch a big rooster this trip! He caught and released TWO! Keith is from Texas.

These guys worked like crazy over 3 days with their flyrods! Roy Yoshida and Norm Fujimoto with a couple of tough jack crevalle on the flyrods near Punta Arenas.

Nice pair! Jorge from Texas and Bruce from California got these fishing near Espirito Santo Island.

What a pretty photo and fish! Chris Sommer with Captain Jorge and a fresh bull dorado.

Travis Moore had just one day to fish and really wanted a rooster! BINGO! An armful of roosterfish. The fish was released!

Can’t find nicer or funner folks than John and Arla Washington from Reno who fish with us numerous times. Nice rack of fish including dorado, cabrilla and snapper!

From Miami after meeting us at the Nashville Safari Club Show, Roberto and Cathy Padron were a joy to have visit us for the first time. Nice table of dorado headed to the freezers!

First time fishing and first time fish! Tino Dileon got himself a nice bull fishing with Captain Chito!

DiChiarro boys from Texas all came down and got into dorado and roosterfish with us!

More happy Texas boys with the DiChiarro family and more nice dorado to take home!

Chris and Jan Sommer with Captain Jorge and a colorful bull mahi.

Diego Jimenez was a bit tired after he and his wife Kellly got into a wild bite of yellowtail near Punta Coyote. Check out the lineup!

Captain Luis and Captain Chito give Kelly a hand with another hefty yellowtail!

Al Hed from Oregon gets a laugh from Mike Jennings. These guys always crack me up. Al has TWO striped marlin on two rods. Mike has another! They hooked FIVE marlin on the day and were able to release 4 of them. One didn’t make it, but they donated the meat. The photos below are two of the marlin. They were with Captain Pancho.

ANOTHER ONE? Yes, that’s Captain Victor with Vern Eichhorn and yet another big rooster for a quick catch…photo…and release!

From Wyoming to visit us for the first time, Stacey Sanger and Chad Beers had a nice day on the water!

After you battle a fish and your arms are shaking, it’s hard to hold it up for a photo. Enter Captain Victor to give Gerry an assist with this beast roosterfish before they released it.

Keith got TWO of these the same day and was ecstatically happy. All fish were released.

Vern Eichhorn with another roosterfish. 11 of them on the week caught and released with Captain Victor.

A good day on the dorado for Diego and Kelly, our long-time amigos from Colorado.

Baltazar and his dad, Bruce, with quite a variety at Bahia Muertos including snapper, cabrilla, trevally and dorado.

______________________________________

It was another good solid week of fishing down here.

I won’t say it was good all the time for everyone. There were some ups-and-downs, but overall pretty good. Maybe some boats did better than others or there was an off -day or so. However, since most of our guests fish multiple days, at the end everyone had fish. It might not be the exact species they were hunting, but the bite was definitely there.

Plus, once again, we had so much variety, you really never knew what was going to end up in the fish box. It was a buffet of species again:

Marlin, sailfish, yellowtail, dorado, roosterfish, amberjack, sierra, wahoo, pargo liso, barred pargo, cubera snapper, bonito, jack crevalle, cabrilla, pompano, trevally, rainbow runners and triggerfish.

Boats right next to each other could have completely different days!

Also, although the waters are getting warmer…up to about 80 degrees…there’s a thermocline about 20-30 feet down where the waters are a good 5 -10 degrees colder. That’s why we’re still catching yellowtail, amberjack and some of the other cold water species.

Each week, I think the yellowtail bite is over, they come back! So, we’re still getting 20-40 pound forkies! Not sure how much longer they will be around, but they are real horses! I can’t believe they are still here this late in the season!

But, it’s evident that the summer bite is getting stronger.

More marlin and sailfish are getting hooked, but the best indicator is the increased presence of dorado. More dorado are showing up in the counts.

Roosterfish still here too! Some big 50-100 pounders are still bending rods!

BAHIA MAGDALENA

Our long-time friend, Jim Stahlman, has fished with us for years. He just retired and decided to drive his new RV down from Idaho down the Baja and fish along the way. He wet lines at Bahia de Los Angeles as well as Loreto.

He finally spent 4 days fishing with our good friends Judith and Rigo in Bahia Magdalena. Check out the photos from fishing 3 days inside the mangroves in the bay and 1 day outside on the high spots. Jim said he probably caught 10 different species. Lost count of how many fish they released where it was non-stop action and broke off on some huge beasts that took him deep!

Snapper, grouper and halibut!

big smiles. Tasty grouper!

Double corvina in hand!

Jim’s wife is gonna love what he brings home. These grouper are great and she loves the head and collars…the whole fish if possible!

Captain Rigo with Jim. Yea, these guys have toothy choppers!

Day 1 – 14 grouper and numerous releases.

Hook up!

That’s my story. Again, this fishing report is dedicated to Jilly.

FULL MOON FEVER?

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Bahia Suenos Fishing Report for Week of May 23-30, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN REPORT

WEATHER: Getting hotter finally. Humidity hasn’t really hit yet so that’s a good thing. Daytime temps now in the high 90’s or low 100’s.

WATER: Getting bluer and warmer, but there is an apparent thermocline about 20-30′ down. So surface temps are 75-79 degrees, but 5-10 degrees cooler below the thermocline which is why we’re still getting the cooler water species like the yellowtail.

FISH HOOKED: yellowtail, amberjack, sierra, barred pargo, dog-tooth snapper, yellow snapper, marlin, sailfish, wahoo, bonito, cabrilla, jack crevalle pompano, trevally, dorado

FISHING SCALE of 1-10: 7

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Toad-sized hog yellowtail for Matt Correia from San Diego with the mackerel bait still hanging from it’s mouth. I recall they hooked 7 that day north of La Paz!

First time in La Paz, Emma Hart, with her first roosterfish too! She’s visiting us from San Diego.

So much variety this week. Casey Petersen off Cerralvo Island with a palometa (trevally). Good eating!

Finally seeing some of the big boy roosters! Paul Cowdell from Utah has been talking to us for years and finally came down. His first day he got the better of this big rooster estimated of about 100 pounds. Paul also released the fish and caught several others he released as well.

Mark Bonsack from Cle Elum WA fishes with us several times a year for almost 20 years now . He always get into the fish like this rare banqueta grouper caught down deep.

The ladies were rocking it this week! Another first timer, Myra Schmonsky all the way from Green Bay WI with one of several roosters on the day. All released.

Visting us from Austin TX, JD Durst said this jack crevalle battled him long and hard off Punta Perrico.

Always great to have Johnny Stone visit us from San Diego. He never disappoints getting onto the fish like this big mossback yellowtail. They hooked 7 that day.

Blaine Larsen and Capt. Julio with our first boated marlin of the year not able to release. It was Blaine’s first and they had another one hooked the next day that threw the hook! Much of the meat was donated.

Great colors on Jim Schmonsky’s dorado. Look how close to shore he is…those are the rocks of Punta Perrico about 20 yards away. Don’t have to go far to find blue water fish!

Our long-time amigo, Brad Sleder from S. Carolina with another unusual banqueta grouper. These are great eating!

Always great to get big smiles from first-timers like Casey and Emma with their first day fishing when they hooked and released 5 roosters!

Whoa! Victor strains to help Myra with her hefty first roosterfish estimated at 60+ pounds. Myra released the fish.

Nice rack of fish! All tasty amberjack at Bahia Muertos for Jason Correia and son, Matt, from San Diego.

My poster-shot of the week! This could be a magazine cover of Paul Cowdell and one of his big roosterfish right off the Punta Arenas lighthouse beach. Fish was realeased!

Jason with another big yellowtail headed to the fish box and more fillets for San Diego!

Jim Schmonsky and Captain Boli posing with another mossback ‘tail and some dinner fillets at Tailhunter Restaurant!

She was so much fun to have visit. Martha Cowdell from Utah in the calm waters off Punta Arenas with a jack crevalle (released). Tough fish when hooked!

Double armfulls of yellowtail to heft up…John Stone and Jeff Correia coming back from Punta Coyote!

From Alaska on the flyrod. This ain’t no salmon. The Mexican name is “toro” (jack crevalle) which means “bull.” Damon Harvey had some fun with these sluggers on the flyrod .

Myra sure had fun in their one-week fishing trip with us. Dorado…just one more species to add to the different species she caught all week!

Lots of fun jack crevalle all week. Not real good eating so they all get released mostly, but difficult to battle and a tough fish on rod and reel. Captain Alfredo and Jason Correia.

_________________________________

I won’t say it was the greatest fishing ever, but it sure was a solid week for sure and the best week of fishing so far this season with lots of variety; big fish and some species we’ve been waiting for!

And all on a full moon too! ( I usually don’t put much stock into the full moon/ bad fishing theory down here. Maybe other places I have fished, but not so much down here!)

We got our first marlin.

First sailfish.

The first big boy 50-100 pound roosterfish.

We got wahoo.

Big big yellowtail (and lots of them!),

We got some dorado finally too!

But, then add in barred pargo, pargo liso, cubera snapper, yellow snapper, sierra, amberjack, jack crevalle, bonito, pompano, trevally, amberjack, triggerfish…and more!

Let me tell you, we were busy every afternoon in our Tailhunter fish packing room!

Huge slabs of yellowtail fillet…FROM JUST ONE BOAT! We were commercial vacuum packing several hundred bags a day of fish!

Plus, we were whipping up lots of cooked fish every night at our Tailhunter Restaurant to cook up the fish that our fishermen brought in!

But, like I said, a good solid week.

The yellowtail north of town were as good as I have ever seen it. The fish are a healthy 15-40 pound mossback forkies. Some biting live mackerel deep and others up on the surface. Boats were coming back usually with 2-8 yellowtail and telling me stories of losing just as many of the fish to broken lines or pulled hooks or some fish they just could not stop!

Fishing with our La Paz fleet that’s pretty much the highlight.

If you wanted the variety of all the other dozen or so species, fishing with our Las Arenas Fleet was were we had you go out. Honestly, if you had a bait in the water, you never knew what you were going to hook.

Fishing for roosterfish, you might also hook jack crevalle, dorado, trevally or pompano or one of the larger 50-100 pound roosterfish that finally showed up.

If you fished over the rocks, we were hooking big mullet snapper (pargo lis0), barred pargo (pargo mulato) and dog-tooth snapper (pargo rojo/ pargo perro/ cubera snapper) as well as cabrilla, yellow snapper, palometas and others.

Not sure how much longer we’ll be getting this kind of variety.

As things warm up, we’ll usually start seeing more dorado, billfish, wahoo and hopefully some tuna and fewer of the cooler water species.

The air temps are definitely on the upswing as many parts of Mexico have been in a heatwave. We’re getting sunny hot temps now in the high 90’s and low 100’s. Nice thing, however, is that the humidity still hasn’t escalated.

The water temps are 75-78 on the surface which is typical, but it appears there’s a thermocline 20-30 feet down where waters are 5-8 degrees cooler and that’s why we’re still getting so many cold water species.

No doubt, it’s hot. Bring the sunscreen and wide-brimmed hats and cover up! And do not forget to stay hydrated or you’ll get sick down here real fast.

OH…and ONE MORE THING DANGIT…

Because of the national, regional, state and local elections on SUNDAY, all alcohol sales in La Paz are prohibited from 6 p.m. Saturday night until Monday morning! Some special areas in Cabo and some other cities got exemptions and in the past, we’ve gotten an exemption as well as some hotels.

But, not THIS YEAR! In La Paz, restaurants (like ours), hotels, cantinas, grocery stores…cannot sell alcohol. Just poke me with a fork…

We’ll keep you posted.

That’s my story!

NO WAY TO KNOW WHAT YOU MIGHT HOOK RIGHT NOW!

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of May 15-22, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WEATHER: Sunny and getting warmer. Nights are in the 70’s and day time in the high 90’s but still very comfortable because the humidity isn’t here yet. Plus, if you get hot, jump in the ocean!

WATER: Getting bluer, but not as warm as I would expect as shown by all the yellowtail and other cold water species we’re getting. But you can tell it’s getting warmer by more warm-water species showing up.

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK: Quite a lineup!

Dorado, yellowtail, amberjack, rainbow runners, marlin, tuna, wahoo, roosterfish, yellow snapper, pargo liso, pargo mulato, cabrilla, white bonito, skipjack, sierra, triggerfish

Note: More variety fishing with our Las Arenas fleet. Mostly nice yellowtail and a few dorado with our La Paz fleet.

FISHING ON A SCALE of 1-10 – 6 1/2. (pretty good!)

MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO REPORT

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Sanford Slack from Washington State had just one day to fish with us and knocked it out’ve the ballpark with two wahoo (see photos below), big cabrilla and two big yellowtail!

Julia Mitchell on her first trip to visit us is all smiles with her first roosterfish. She had quite a week down here. The rooster was released.

Captain Rogelio estimated this thick yellowtail caught by John Pechous to be about 40 pounds! John was a first-time visitor and came to us from Arizona.

Gary Wagner at his place at Rancho Costa has one of the best eating fish, a hefty cabrilla (seabass).

Ray Millman from Rancho Palos Verdes with a nice dorado and Captain Victor doing a photobomb. Ray rocked the week and went home and booked another trip with us in September!

Yes…bigger roosters have moved in! Mauricio Levy from Monterey CA has an armful of rooster! The fish was released.

We had a nice little jag of wahoo at the south end of Cerralvo Island this week. Sanford popped two of the speedy ‘hoos with Captain Hugo.

Julia’s yellowtail is bigger than her dad’s yellowtail, she claims! Captain Alfredo looks on. They were fishing around Punta Coyote.

Gary Wagner at Rancho Costa in Bahia Muertos with quite a rack of fishi. I can see yellowtail, dorado, barred pargo, yellow snapper and cabrlla. I’m sure they had a great dinner there that night.

Willy Moers is always fun when he comes down from Colorado! Quite a day here…cabrilla, yellow snapper, dorado and rainbow runner.

Bill Mitchell was one of my first Tailhunter clients almost 30 years ago. Good to have him back and here’s another yellowtail for the box. He and his daughter put 7 on the deck this particular day.

Tough-fighting pargo liso are still schooling in the shallows. Julia has another one!

That’a alot of sweet fillet meat for Sanford with a trophy cabrilla in the pose.

Julia and Captain Alfredo with another yellowtail.

_________________________________________

Just another good solid week of fishing down here.

Everyone got fish. Everyone ate fish. Everyone took fish home! That kinda says it all.

The “problem” is that I couldn’t pinpoint what kinds of fish were biting. Every day and every boat things changed. We caught so many different species of fish once again as the waters change from cooler to warmer and both cooler water species and warm water species mix things up.

Boats came back with different catches every day. Even if they fished the same spots. Boats next to each other caught different fish. One day fish were small. Next day all the fish were trophy.

It really made it fun. If you went out…if you had a bait in the water…you just never knew what you were going to catch.

It was quite a list:

Dorado…yellowtail…jack crevalle…bonito…skipjack…tuna…wahoo…cabrilla…sierra…amberjack…rainbow runners…pargo liso (mullet snapper)…barred pargo (pargo mulato)…dog tooth snapper (cubera)…yellow snapper…marlin…roosterfish…milkfish…triggerfish

I probably missed one or two! There were that many species!

I think as things get warmer, we’ll be narrowing down to dorado, tuna, billfish, wahoo and roosterfish among a few others. I don’t know how long the waters will stay cool enough to hold this kind of variety, but for now, it’s alot of fun.

Things are definitely getting warmer. Night temps are in the mid-70’s. Day time temp are in the mid-to-high 90’s. However, the humidity really hasn’t hit yet so it’s still very pleasant sunshine days with mostly flat warm 75 degree waters on the surface, but a cooler thermocline 20-30 feet below.

That’s my story!

SOLID WEEK OF VARIETY

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Week of May 6-14, 2024

SHORT ATTENTION SPAN FISHING REPORT

WEATHER: Brrrr…the mornings can sure be chilly and blustery, but then giving way to warm and mostly sunny days in the high 80’s to low 90’s. Getting a big more humid but overall pretty pleasant. The evenings are great.

WATER: Slowly getting warmer, but there’s more cooler water than warm water. The cooler water is keeping species like yellowtail, amberjack and sierra around. If you find the warmer water, that’s where the occasional dorado will be. Surface temps are in the 70’s, but key is that you hit a chilly thermocline about 20-3o feet down that drops the water into the 60’s. Visbility is about 20-30′ underwater.

FISH HOOKED THIS WEEK: yellowtail, roosterfish, rainbow runners, barred pargo, pargo liso, yellow snapper, tuna, cabrilla, sierra, skipjack, bonito, jack crevalle, sheephead, triggerfish, wahoo

LAS ARENAS FISHING: This is where we are seeing the most variety of the fish listed above. If you want a chance at a whole bunch of different species, this is where to fish.

LA PAZ FISHING: Mostly yellowtail (although bigger fish) and some dorado and smaller roosterfish.

FISHING SCALE of 1-10: 5

THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…

Ray Millman is all smiles after a good day of yellowtail fishing near Espiritu Santo Island. They caught six this day. Ray is one of our first-time amigos!

Captain Armando put Davin Smith and his friend on a big pargo and dorado and other action. The fish ended up back at our Tailhunter Restaurant for dinner!

Bill Malone with a big palometo. His first time with us and his first palometa which is related to pompano and trevally. Bill is from Torrance CA

From Minnesota with Captain Joel, Cole and Jadin Bauman with a nice bunch of yellowtail in the box!

Whoa! Finally, some of the larger roosters starting to show up! Ray with Captain Victor. They caught a number of fish between 40 and 80 pounds. All released!

Shaka sign from Justin Orr and his yellowtail with captain Armando. A good bunch of this fish ended up as ceviche at our Tailhunter Restaurant.

Rich Ambrosini was another of our first-time visitors this week and poses with Captain Gerardo and a rooster Gerardo estimated at about 50 pounds. The fish was released.

Trophy barred pargo caught in shallow water near Punta Arenas by Ray Millman. Great eating!

Nice batch of fish on the cleaning table with lots of variety for Rich Ambrosini and Gary Orr with Captain Gerardo. I see snapper, cabrilla, triggerfish and a big barred pargo.

Not a bad week at all. Everyone got fish and everyone who wanted to take home fish took home fish! Mornings are a bit chilly, but daytimes are warm and sunny and humidity is starting to come in too.

Overall just a good week on all levels.

Just sorry that I don’t have that many photos this week. I just didn’t get as many from our anglers or, as one amigo told me, “We were too busy catching fish to take photos! Our hands were full!”

Good reason! LOL

Not every boat did good every day. To be honest. But, if one boat was slow one days, they surely made up for it on other days. Most folks fortunately fish with us for several days.

“Bad fishing” is also relative.

Someone might come back and tell me it was slow or bad. I then talk to the captain who tells me they lost about 5 or 6 nice fish. That’s good fishing, but bad catching. And understandably, some of these fish are not only big, but tough and if you’re not used to it, or the conditions, fish will beat you up.

Also, if someone comes back and they were chasing tuna or wahoo all day, well, honestly ,that’s a gamble. You’re not gonna catch them if you don’t try, but it’s also swinging for the fences with ha home run. The fish are there and biting or they aren’t. And it just wasn’t your lucky day. The other boats that went after the more prevalent fish like yellowtail, pargo, cabrilla, etc. did way better because that’s what is actually biting and there are alot more of those fish than the bigger blue water species right now.

All-in-all, there was alot of variety once again.

Maybe over a dozen different species hooked including: yellowtail, roosterfish, rainbow runners, barred pargo, pargo liso, yellow snapper, tuna (big), cabrilla, sierra, skipjack, bonito, jack crevalle, sheephead, triggerfish and even a few wahoo.

But that’s what makes it fun. You really never know what’s going to bite right now if you put a bait in the water.

The highlights included some good-grade yellowtail up to about 30 pounds. Some dorado in the 15-20 pound class as well as some trophy-sized pargo showed up. Really encouraging were the larger roosterfish that finally showed up in the 50-80 pound class. About time!

The dorado are scattered right now and you need to fine the warmer water. The yellowtail are on the surface around Espirito Santo Island. Best deal is to catch live mackerel under the big oil tankers in the bay then head out and drop a mackie into the current!

The tuna and wahoo were hooked at the south end of Cerralvo Island and the bigger roosters were caught near Punta Arenas in roosterfish alley, but there are lost of the smaller 5-10 pounders along many beaches right now.

Mornings are chilly. Bring a light windbreaker or sweatshirt that you can take off when the sun comes blazing later on!

It’s a nice time to be in town!

That’s my story!
