Although fishing was tough, Will Dolinar from Rock Springs, WY, says, “It’s snowing back in Wyoming!” He roughed it with us this week and while out with Captain Jorge, his wife Stacey hooked this blue marlin. After a few minutes, she handed it off to him and he fought it for almost 2 hours. The fish could not be released and they donated most of the meat to the pueblo.
Despite bouncy rough water, Captain Jorge got Stacey Dolinar on this feisty roosterfish just at the mouth of Bahia de los Muertos. The fish was released.
It seemed this week that if you were fishing in all this wind, you either got little tiny pargo and cabrilla or you got a BIG fish like a rooster, marlin, sails or wahoo…and precious few of those. However, on their last day, Bob Donohue from Washington fishing with Captain Pancho, Bob put the wood to this striper. After the quick photo, Bob was able to release the fish! Note that chop in the back!
HUGE WINDS RIP FISHING
La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 8-15, 2015
Not much to say this week except the winds were bad and the fishing was worse. If you were in the city it was gorgeous sunny 85 all week. But being on the water was probably someplace not so good.
We had maybe the strongest winds of the year, short of there being an actual storm. Winds up to 20 mph with gusts to 25 blew most of the week along with huge tidal surges that not only swamped low-lying areas, but the winds generated almost surf-able waves in La Paz Bay that were strong enough the smash against the La Paz malecon (waterfront) and throw spray on the sidewalk and cars! Much of the bay looked like white froth. Normally, our calm little bay looks like a lake and generally, we don’t see these kinds of winds until maybe late December. But, I think El Nino just has everything all outta whack.
In terms of fishing, for the 2nd straight week, we did not send any fishermen out of La Paz. Even had it not been howling winds, the waters have been turned over. There’s very little bait and what few fish that are around have been way over on the other side of the bay almost 90 minutes ride away.
So, we’ve fished all of our folks with our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet out’ve Muertos. At least the bay is south facing and somewhat guarded against the north winds. But, even then, there’s only so much protection. Once outside, it was choppy and rough.
Bait is already an issue, but when the winds blow, it’s even worse trying to find it or, in the areas close to shore where we net it, the huge waves scatter the small baits or make it impossible to get close to the rocks. However, some days the guys were able to scrabble up some mackerel, caballitos or other baitfish. But not much.
So, that surely impacted the fishing.
Being that it’s already off-season, the upside is that there are very few fishermen in town compared to a few weeks ago. It’s just too bad the winds came up early this year…a month too soon. Normally, we’re still whacking fish right now. But, the downside is that we still have some fishermen visiting us and there wasn’t much to write home about. The amigos we had out this past week really put in a valiant effort and kept the smiles on despite the lack of fish and rough water. High-fives to all of them…they hung in there!
There were some marlin and sails hooked. But there was not much “in-between” in terms of roosters or dorado, bonito or other species. One wahoo hooked and lost. The rest were just some small pargo, cabrilla and trigger fish. Oh…a couple of 50 pound roosterfish that were a nice change-up, but can’t east roosterfish and all releasd. That was pretty much it. As I write this, winds are calming just a bit, but are slated to start up again the middle of next week and blowing Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday…again! I’m really tired of El Nino. Go away already. Not a great way to wind down the season the last few weeks.
That’s our story!
