HONESTLY STRAIGHT UP…NOT MUCH GOING
ON EXCEPT WINDS
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay/ Suenos Bay Fishing Report for Jan 19-29, 2022
MEXICAN MINUTE VIDEO REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…
We actually tried to send out some boats this past week. Everyone was informed that it might be very windy and rough, but they wanted to give it a go. One day they had to cancel because of the winds. Another day, the only got to fish a few hours then were blown off by the winds. They got one bite from an unknown fish and lost it. That was it. Another day, was also a cancelations.
Just not a great time to be on the water. Air temps are sunny and warm going up to the low 80’s in the day, but the north winds continue to be pesky and prohibitive. Mostly the only folks fishing right now are some of the commercial guys as well as some of our captains with family or friends for sustenance during the off-season which runs November to April.
Live bait has also been an issue because with so very few folks on the water, it’s not economical for the bait guys to work all morning to get bait they can’t sell to anyone or they have trouble getting the bait because the areas holding bait are too rough.
The few catches that are being made are mostly the usual inshore stuff. Generally small snapper, some cabrilla and pargo. Peripherally hooking jack and bonito.
GRATEFULLY BACK ON OUR WAY and THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU!
Busted the glass, the wrap, the pistons AND the tailgate!
In case you hadn’t heard, we are finally back on the road and headed to our third show which will be at the Washington State Fairgrounds in Puyallup WA. More on that below.
However, we wanted to give a shout-out to all of our Tailhunter Tribe, Family and Friends who came to our rescue. Last week during the show in Sacramento, our Tailhunter vehicle got broken into. Nothing taken, but the intruders pretty much destroyed not only the glass and custom wrap but also the pistons and part of the tailgate.
The vehicle was not driveable and had to be towed.
We have more than 2 more months of shows to attend and were initially told that parts and repairs might take as much as 3 weeks! There were simply no parts in Sacramento because of supply chain issues. One part was all the way in Michigan. The one tech who could do the repairs was TWO months backed up with work!
Jill worked like crazy on the phones with dealers and found Epic Chevy in Sacramento who went above-and-beyond. They found subcontractors in other cities who had parts and they all pulled together to get the parts expedited to the Chevy dealer where a tech put us to the head of the line and worked all weekend to get us on the road!
Instead of 3 week, it was done in 5 days!
Good job, Jilly. She used to work in the car industry for 20 years and dug deep to get us back on tour!
However, so many of you offered cars, trucks, trailers, your homes, your connections and even meals to help us get through or get back on our show circuit! The out-pouring was incredible. We are more than touched and grateful and you humbled us with your thoughtfulness! God bless you all for being angels when we needed you!
On a side note, we’ve been doing the show in Sacramento for over 20 years. Never had an issue. But, sad and distressing to see the area around the fairgrounds. Lots of homeless living everywhere and pretty much anywhere they decide to set up a camp or boxes on the sidewalk or a parking lot. Vagrants walking all over. Folks living in derelict cars. At the stores and markets, there are no baskets or carts…they have all been stolen.
One of our good friend who is an hunting outfitter in Idaho had his whole rig stolen from the parking lot. One of our clients was carjacked at gunpoint by a guy fleeing a murder.
So sad to see the deterioration. Praying and hoping for better!
…SO HERE WE COME WASHINGTON!
