There’s a little of this..a little of that right now. Alot of bonito…the occasional dorado plus inshore species like triggerfish and cabrilla.

THAT LULL BETWEEN THE HOLIDAYS – Full Moon Coming up Too!

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Dec. 4-12, 2016

It was one of the better weeks for weather with minimal winds most days but just not many fishermen around. I think everyone is geared or pre-disposed with the holidays at the moment or most of the visitors to La Paz are snowbirds making their way down to catch some sunshine or the luckier ones who get to spend all winter down here. Even the locals are pretty tied up with Christmas at the moment with numerous Christmas Fairs, pageants, decorating and shopping. For sure, there’s alot of tamale making going on!

Fishing wise, nothing spectacular, but really hard to know when mostly it’s the commercial guys fishing. Inshore fishing for snapper, barred cargo, cabrilla and jacks has been the predominant catch from what we’re seeing, but there’s still some dorado around. Most are the 5-10 pound size. For a little more fun, the bonito schools are ranging in the usual places with some fish up to 10 pound horses. No tuna or wahoo caught, but that’s because no one was really fishing for them but I did hear of some schools of tuna breaking water just off Punta Perrico. Two of our commerical fishermen friends did get hook-ups on wahoo, but fish came off. Again, it’s hard to give a complete report when there’s not much sportfishing traffic out there. Next week will be a little more complete.

NOW BOOKING WHALE WATCHING TRIPS FOR JAN-MARCH!

If you’d like a really unique trip, Baja isn’t just for fishing! The whales are already making their way south and thousands of them will take up winter habitat in Bahia Magdalenda from January to March. It’s the largest migration of animals on the planet and a great opportunity to spend time in the pristine shallow waters of the bay.

Tailhunters can set up your trips and put together full packages with lodging, transportation, day trips and more. It makes a great Christmas present too!

That’s our story! Hope you and yours are enjoying a fantastic holiday season!

It’s so hard to get him to smile sometimes, but Captain Archangel goofs with his “big” yellow snapper and some of the tuna his guys caught.

Captain Adolfo with a nice tuna and a big barred pargo for his anglers.

For almost winter, not a bad grade of tuna this week. And close to shore too!

Captain Archangel again with some of Bob Pettit’s guys from Utah and found some decent dorado plus a big dog-tooth snapper and a yellow snapper. Great eating! They brought fish from their first night to Tailhunter Restaurant to have us cook it up.

Utah guys in the house! Captain Armando got Robert Pettit and his aigo a dorado and huge triggerfish.

Early in the week just as I had published our last report, Terry Robinson, had a small window to fish. His first day, was pretty slow, but on day two, he had quite the buffet of fish including a wahoo, big tuna, some cabrilla, snapper and triggerfish. Other wahoo and tuna were lost. Terry is from Idaho.

WINDY WINTER CATCHES ARE UNUSUAL

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 27-Dec. 4, 2016

Apparently, there’s still some warm-water pelagic species running around this late in the season. There’s not many anglers around as this is the “gap” between the holidays and north winds made some days unfishable and provided scratchy fishing at best. However, the few days we got folks out on the water, there were some surprising catches.

Normally, this time of year, the bite is pretty focused on inshore species and colder-water types of fish like cabrilla, pargo, jacks and snapper. Part of the reason, obviously, is that the waters are colder. But, another aspect is that rougher winter conditions, keep us closer to shore fishing the reefs, rocks and sheltered areas.

This past week, it was cloudy and some days were really uncomfortably windy. There was even a bit of rain as well. However, the few days we had anglers out, it surely wasn’t off-the-wall fishing, but they tagged into some surprising catches. These included some nice-grades of yellowfin tuna in the 20-pound-class. Additionally, our captains found some spots of 8-15 pound dorado and even a few wahoo earlier in the week. Throw those into the box with some nice barred pargo, dog-tooth snapper, a cabrilla or two, red snapper and triggerfish and it made for a surprising variety of fish.

Weather this coming week is supposed to clear up with more sunshine, but winds will be increasing also.

That’s our story!

A little of this. A little of that. This is pretty typical of what our catch is like now that the seasons are changing. Some bonito, sierra, pargo.

SNOWBIRDS IN TOWN – THE GAP BETWEEN HOLIDAYS

La Paz- Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 20-27, 2016

Hope you and yours had a great Thanksgiving week!

Not much going on this past week. Very few folks in town and most of the visitors are from colder climates and these snowbirds are just trying to find some sunshine. They’re not necessarily in town to fish, or snorkel or participate in other water sports…except for the windsurfers who are starting to head towards La Ventana/ El Sargento near Las Arenas. As our winds get strong and stronger, that area in the channel by Cerralvo Island is world-class for wind sports.

As far as our fishing, well, it is indeed getting windier and not the most ideal for fishing. So, you it is what it is if you plan to fish in the off-season. It’s definitely usually sunny, but winds can make it bumpy and/ or limit the areas we can fish and the types of species we can fish for.

Indeed, that’s what happened this week. No big pelagic to report for the first time all season. No dorado. No tuna. No rooster fish. No billfish. So, maybe the warm-water season has finally ended.

Or, maybe it’s just an aberration. When there’s not many boats on the water, a few boats can’t be everywhere at once checking out all spots. So, there could well be spots of big game fish still out there. Or not. As the season goes along and rolls into December, things will get clearer. It’s definitely a transition time right now.

So, what we got were some cargo, cabrilla, sierra and bonito. Pretty much inshore species. For now. We should get a few more folks on the water now that Thanksgiving weekend is over.

BUT WAIT!!!

Don’t close the curtains just yet…

From Twin Falls, Idaho, Terry Robinson had a great day nailing this huge wahoo…losing a few others…tangling with a big dorado for a bit and also getting the wahoo below.

And here’s the nice tuna. Chunky fish for November!

Just as I was putting out this report to make my deadline, we had some of our anglers hit wahoo and tuna! And lost others! So, hold everything. Maybe it’s not over yet!

That’s our story

Brandon and Tanya McGarr (next photo) were down to see us for their first trip and also celebrating their birthdays. They’re from Rock Springs, Wyoming. At the same time, they got this double-hook-up of big roosterfish and had to fight each fish simultaneously. Nice late-season roosters and both were released. They also got a wahoo to take home.

As mentioned above, Tanya McGarr tied up to this big rooster at the same time her husband, Brandon, also bit bit. It’s hard to hold up a fish for a photo when your arms are tired! She released the fish!

Wahoo, like the ones caught by Paul “LP” Hieb with Captain Pancho, are still around, but not sure for how much longer as conditions are changing.

FISHING MIXED AS WINDS INCREASE

La Paz – Las Arenas/ Muertos Bay Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 13-20, 2016

Things are really sliding into different conditions with each passing week. More wind. Still wonderfully, sunny but cooler. More snowbirds showing up, not so much interested in fishing as just finding warmer conditions than where they were coming from. Fewer families right now as we approach the holidays and families have other things on their plates.

As far as fishing, there’s far fewer anglers than we had even a week or two ago. This is that “gap” between the holidays and the start of our off-season when we don’t see so many anglers again until late March or April.

There’s still fish out there, but it’s hard to get a great read on things when there are so few boats on the water. That one boat fishing just one day, might find the fish and have a banner time. Or, they could miss the fish but if they had been 500 yards away in a different spot, they might have hit a honey-hole. One or two pangas can’t cover the whole ocean.

So, one thing is for sure. There’s not a lot of boat traffic out there! Further, it’s a crapshoot for fishing. We do the best we can and we go have fun.

The other thing that’s guaranteed is that the winds are going to get stronger from the north. We have already shut down our Tailhunter La Paz fleet for the season. It’s just too unpredictable to be outside the bay when it can be blowing outside even when the bay looks calm. But even in the bay, sometimes, there’s whitecaps these days.

So, all of our fishing has been pretty much with our Tailhunter Las Arenas Fleet from Muertos Bay where at least the waters are a little more protected and the fish are closer.

But, even that being said, we had four days this past week where I recommended that the clients not go fishing and fish a different day because the winds were too strong. That made all the difference. But, those were cases where the clients were with us for a few days and had flexible schedules.

It’s different if some fishermen only have 1 day to fish or are walk-in clients to our store and want to go fishing…”tomorrow.” I can only advise them that it might be pretty windy if that’s what the forecast says or completely tell them it’s not even safe to go out because the winds will be gusting.

All that being said, out folks that went out this week got some nice variety out’ve Bahia de los Muertos.

There’s still some wahoo biting not too far outside of Metros and around Punta Perrico. The fish are nice-grade 30-pound class fish most times. Some a little bigger. Some a little smaller, but still…a wahoo! We’re still losing more than we’re putting in the boat. These wahoo have gotten cagey. They’re tough and fast and they’ve got those sharp teeth and are even biting off the Rapalas!

We also found a few tuna out there in front of the old Hotel Las Arenas too. Just about 100 yards or so off the beach, there’s some breezing yellowfin of 20-30 pounds that are wiling to eat the squid.

Near that same area, we also surprisingly got into some late season hefty 30-50 pound rooster fish as well. I can’t remember getting roosters this late in the season, but that could also be because I can’t remember anyone fishing for them this late, but still…GREAT CATCH and another exotic tough trophy fish!

Rounding out, there’s some pargo, cabrilla, jack crevalle, bonito, snapper and sierra working as well.

That’s our story!

VARIETY OF SPECIES TOPPED BY WAHOO

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of March 1-8, 2015

It wasn’t a great week of fishing. It wasn’t bad either. It had it’s moments. It just kinda depended where you were fishing and what day you happened to pick to fish.

There weren’t alot of fishermen this past week, and there weren’t alot of fish. But on the better days, there was some incredible variety. Very surprising for this time of the year that we normally call off-season. But, it’s kind of typical as well. Perhaps it was a combination of variables. I usually don’t put alot of stock in the full moon thing, but we did have a big moon. Maybe not much in-and-of-itself, but there were also some windy days as well and checking water temperatures, there were some big patches of cooler water around. So, maybe it was a combination.

However, as I said, this week had it’s moments!

There were some nice ones. Probably the most exciting was the showing of wahoo off Cerrlavo Island. Pretty early in the year to be sticking the speedy ‘hoo! We got few but also lost a few.

Plus, we finally put some yellowtail in the boats as well as a few dorado. Mix that in with some pargo, cabrilla and even some rooster fish and a bunch of bonito and there was some OK action to be had.

THANKS TO LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA and BOISE, IDAHO! NOW to SALT LAKE CITY ISE SHOW!

Our shows in Long Beach at the Convention Center for the Fred Hall Fishing Show and at the Idaho Sportsmans Show were off-the-hook, with lots of friends coming to visit us…share some laughs…and talk about coming to fish with us in La Paz!

For the past two weeks, Jill and I have been forced to split up our tour schedule because of the crazy show calendar. I did the Phoenix Show and she went to Yakima WA. This past week, Jilly held the fort in the booth at the great Boise, Idaho Sportsmans Show. I covered us at the Long Beach Convention Center for the 69th Annual Fred Hall Fishing Show.

What a time we had! We can’t thank everyone enough for all the great time and all the amigos who came to visit us. Personally, I want to give a big shout-out to everyone who also came by to wish me a happy birthday and also for all the thoughtful gifts and food. Wow! Just incredible. And for everyone who looked in on Jilly in Boise and helped her out we are especially grateful. We booked lots of fishing trip reservations for the season and we’re looking forward to seeing so many of you again later in the season down in La Paz. For all the rest of you, let us know what we can do to assist you with coming to see us!

Here we come Salt Lake City at the Expo Center in Sandy! We always have a great time visiting with our amigos!

We’ll after almost 3 months on the road, we’re finally coming near the end, but not quite yet! Jill and I will be together again instead of doing shows separately. Next stop, Salt Lake City at the ISE show at the Sandy Expo Center. The show will be Thursday to Sunday and always promises a great time and we have so many of our amigos in the area. Come see us and let’s talk about visiting us in La Paz this year. Here’s details and how to get advance online tickets: http://www.sportsexpos.com/attend/2015/saltlakecity/

We’ll see you this week!

That’s our story!

Captain Archangel shows off one of the nice roosterfish like the ones we got this week. We just didn’t have alot of photos to put in the report since everyone releases their roosterfish! (Which we encourage!) A good week for roosters a little earlier than normal for the year.

ROOSTERFISH – PARGO and WHALES HIGHLIGHT WEEK

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 22-March 1, 2015

There just weren’t that many fishermen in town this week. Most folks in town this time of year are snow-birds just trying to get away from the colder areas they live in. Or as one visitor told me this week, “We give up. We live on the east coast and could not stand one more snowstorm. We went as far as we could go as long as we had sunshine.”

It was surely a good week to be in town. Temperatures were in the 80’s although there were some afternoon clouds that dropped some quick showers up in the mountains. Pretty pleasant overall. And not much wind which was pretty good for fishing…if we had more fishermen! But, it’s to be expected during the off-season when we’ve always got the potential for some strong northern winds that can bounce you off the water.

But, for the few fishermen we had, there was some decent inshore fishing. The highlights were the pargo and rooster fish. We don’t have alot of photos this week because…well, most of the rooster fish are released (yay), but there were some nice 10-20 pound fish. Close in tight to Bahia de Los Muertos and south towards Boca de Alamo.

The other fish that came up nice were the pargo. But, we don’t have alot of photos of them either this week because…well, the fish bite, but if you have ever fished for pargo, you also know how tough they can be pulling these sluggers out’ve the rocks. Probably not a tougher fish out there and this time of year is when the big redfish come up into the shallows to spawn. We “estimate” that the fish that were lost would’ve been in the 10-30 pound range.

Other species included bonito, sierra and cabrilla (sea bass).

WHALES

Although we didn’t have alot of fishermen, we DID have some great whale watching and that’s what alot of folks come to La Paz for this time of the year.

We’re having a spectacular year with an abundance of grey whales in Bahia Magdalena and daily trips headed out and lots of whales this year. Normally, they’re gone by mid-March but show no signs so far, of leaving in any hurry! It’s been a great opportunity to literally get close to the whales and touch them.

WHALE SHARKS

How about swimming with an animal the size of a school bus?

Thanks to Kody and Rick Kasper for these great photos and this week’s great video of Kody underwater.

There have also been some great opportunities right in the bay to swim with the whalesharks. The “babies” which are about 10-15 feet long are in shallow water but an incredible experience to get in the water with anywhere from one to more than a dozen whalesharks in shallow water.

FRED HALL FISHING SHOW – Wednesday to Sunday

10955876_892800824074371_892800387407748_49159_564_b

There’s nothing like this show if you’re into fishing!

They line up early and long to get into the show looking for deals!

Only part of a skyview of the main hall and the packed aisles in the Long Beach Convention Center!

This is it! This is the BIG ONE of the YEAR! We’ve been on the road now for 2 months and had some spectacular shows in Sacramento…Denver…Puyallup (Seattle)…Portland…Phoenix and Yakima. And now…we’re splitting up again!

I’ll be at the Long Beach Convention Center for the Fred Hall Fishing and Outdoor Show from Wednesday to Sunday. This is the 69th year for this show and it’s always packed with great gear, trips and lots of amigos! It’s the big party!

Our Tailhunter Booth…often a gathering spots for our other amigos in the fishing business. Just some of our “fishing brothers” waiting to see you this week in Long Beach!

BOISE IDAHO SPORTSMANS SHOW- Thursday to Sunday

Regretfully, Jill and I have to split up this week. She’ll be at the Boise Fairgrounds from Thursday to Sunday. Another great show and we hate splitting up. Jill really wants to be with me in Long Beach and I’m sure going to miss being with her and not seeing our friends in Idaho. But, it’s a way great super show! Come see Jilly!

Jill will be in the booth at the Boise Fairgrounds and has all the info you need to set up your 2015 Fishing Adventure in La Paz with Tailhunter Sportfishing!

STILL SPOTS FOR 2015 PANGA SLAM

Dave and Michelle Conklin from Washington got some nice dorado at last year’s Panga Slam

BEACH LINEUP of DORADO at last year’s Panga Slam!

Still some spots available. Dates are June 16-21 and is gonna be a blast with 3 days fishing / hotel/ several great parties and dinners and a big island snorkel party as well. All this personally hosted by Jill and myself and Executive Editor Pat McDonell from Western Outdoor News. It promises to be another great time. For more information, contact us here at Tailhunter at riplipboy@tailhunter-international.com or call 626-638-3383.

yellowtail pargo snapper triggers sierra tags

There’s a variety of fish that came up this week. Red snapper…yellowtail…sierra…and yes triggerfish. All great eating fish.

Our whaelwatching tours are in full swing and the whales are being incredibly cooperative! Kevin Kennedy and his group got the full experience in the calm waters of Mag Bay. Not sure how much longer these amazing animals will be here, but normally, they’re around until mid-March or so! Contact us and we’ll set you up!

We say good-bye to a fantastic La Paz Carnaval . Many watched the parades from our Tailhunter Restaurant and had a great time.

Great costumes and floats!

OK WEATHER GOES WITH OK FISHING!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 15-22, 2015

Good week for weather and fishing this past week…relatively speaking! I mean, it’s still winter so there were some breezy days, but compared to other weeks, the conditions were much more fishable and given that many of the folks in town are snow birds just wanting to get warm (especially those trying to thaw out from the east coast of the U.S, not too many folks are complaining about 83 degree days.

The fishing was predictable. With good weather, we’re able to get into more species and more variety to the fishing as well.

Among the larger species, some yellowtail popped up off Cerralvo Island including some nicer grades of fish in the 20-30 pound class. Some nice horses. Bait hasn’t been good as far as the mackerel are concerned which is what the yellows really charge, but using iron and heavier jigs (of course losing stuff in the rocks), scrambled egg and blue/white patterns produced fish. Also slow trolling mackerel-patterned crank baits like the bigger Rapala xRap 20’s and Yo-Zuri’s in blue and grey got hits as well.

Also, given it’s only February, I was nicely surprised by the rooster fish we got this week. Nothing big but fun-sized 5-10 pounders are great on light tackle, especially so close to shore. Normally, we tend to see these fish about a month later.

Same with the dorado. Again, nothing gigantic, but good-sating sized 6-12 pound “doraditos” again made for some good light tackle action. Just like the roosters, I wouldn’t expect the mahi to be in so early in the year.

More typical were the other species we caught. Especially, the inshore types. This included snapper and pargo, some decent 10-pound cabrilla and sierra along some of the beach drop offs.

The coming week’s weather is looking pretty good so hopefully better fishing reports next week. Truthfully, this time of the year, there aren’t that many fishermen in town, but everyone is hooking up and getting good variety.

WHAT A WEEK ON THE ROAD!

Jilly is all smiles in the Yakima booth!

Once again…had a BLAST rocking the booth in the Phoenix University Football Stadium. Hard to believe the Super Bowl was played there two weeks ago!

Due to scheduling, Jill and I split up this week on our Tailhunter show tour. Jill went up to Yakima, Washington for the Central Washington Sportsmans Show. I was further south at the International Sportsman Show in Phoenix. We both had a great week and it was great seeing so many new and old amigos! Thanks to everyone for coming and visiting us and for those of you who booked trips to come see us this year in La Paz, we’re looking forward to seeing you again later this year!

We now move off to Southern California to set up for the massive Long Beach Fred Hall Fishing and Hunting Show at the Long Beach Convention Center March 4-8. Once again, we split up! Jill goes north to the Idaho Sportman’s Show at the fairgrounds in Boise, Idaho! If you’re going to be anywhere near these venues come out to see us and say hi!

That’s our story. Have a great week!

From Napa and only time for one day of fishing, here’s NIck Clark and his girlfriend Jackie. I was a bit worried because of prediciions of wind and rain, but they did OK…several roosters released…a wahoo lost…two small dorado…some bonito….a red pargo and a cabrilla! Not too bad at all! It’s hard to tell, but if you look closely at Jackie’s left hand…NICK got the best catch of all…HE ASKED JACKIE TO MARRY HIM! Apparently, she said YES!!!

Using yo-yo iron, commercial guys around Cerralvo Island are hooking some nice 20 pound class yellowtail. Hopefully, this week we can get some of our sports anglers on the fish. Thanks to Hawk for the photo!

Amy Casper from Wyoming and Doc Finn from New York have visitors!

Looks like Amy got a big smile from this big grey whale on one of our Tailhunter whalewatching trips!

LA PAZ CARNAVAL 2015 is in full -swing this week! Everyone is out partying on the waterfront with lots of parades, floats, dancing, concerts, food and fun! Carnaval goes until FAT TUESDAY Feb. 17th. Great time to be in town.

FISHING MIXED BUT LOTS GOING ON IN LA PAZ!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 8-15, 2015

Relatively speaking…Not much to report this week. We had a bit of wind which is characteristic of this time of year. Also, there’s more folks in town for whale watching and the big week-long Carnavale than for fishing so everyone was having fun, nevertheless.

The folks that did go out, many were first-timers just looking for some sunshine and a day out on the water regardless of action so, in cases like that, best to keep close and have some fun and catch fish. The results were enjoyably predictable with cabrilla and bonito up to about 5 pounds. Good action on some schools of tough jack crevalle up to about 10 pounds. Some pargo including some larger ones busted off in the rocks plus sierra along the beaches. All great eating fish.

But, not to be discouraged, we did have two wahoo come off and several roosterfish were released so there’s alot of variety in the water and decent action!

The tuna bite we were hoping for, never really materialized although the commercial guys say there’s some fast-movers running with the dolphin schools outside Cerralvo Island or momentarily popping up at the drop-offs in deeper water then heading back down before anyone can get to them. Encouragingly, more yellowtail are showing up on the commercial boats using heavier iron as not much bait is around. But those guys go out no matter the conditions and it’s often a bit too rough to put first-timers out there and make the run on a sketchy bite. This week, we’ve got some better experienced anglers coming out so hopefully some better results on the more quality fish.

The whale watching is really where everyone is these past few weeks. The whales over at Bahia Magdalena have been incredible. The folks we’ve been sending over have been having a kick getting up close to these amazing animals in the calm waters of the bay and the whales and the new calves have shown no hesitancy to come right up and check out the funny-looking creatures in the pangas that can’t stop laughing.

Also, this week since Feb. 12th and continuing to the 17th, La Paz has been in full-turbo CARNAVAL mode with the city in quite the party mood with parades, booths, lots of food, giant concerts and pretty much shutting down the whole waterfront area in a giant street fair every day and night. Great time to be in town!

JONATHAN and JILL SPLIT UP!

Not really per se! But our Tailhunter 2015 Road Tour hits a fork in the road!

Jilly and I have been on the road now since just after Christmas and have had some incredible shows in Sacramento, Denver, Puyallup (Seattle), and most recently in Portland at all the big fishing and hunting shows telling folks about fishing with us in La Paz. What an amazing time we’re having and the bookings have been off-the-charts and it’s so great to see so many old friends along the trail!

Well, as the schedule would have it Jill and I have to split up this week. Jill heads for the show in YAKIMA, WASHINGTON at the SUN DOME there at the Yakima Fairgrounds.

Jonathan goes to the other big show in PHOENIX, ARIZONA at the UNIVERSITY of PHOENIX STADIUM where the NFL Cardinals play and we just had the SUPER BOWL!

We hate to split up, but it’s the way the schedule worked out and we surely don’t want to miss either show and seeing our amigos in both locations. So, if you’re anywhere in the area, come by and say hi and talk to us about coming to visit us this year and go fishing in La Paz! Hope to see you this week!

That’s our story!
