Another first-timer with us had an incredible two days of fishing getting and releasing his first roosterfish of about 40 pounds then sticking a wahoo and a dorado for the grand slam. McKell Condie was visiting us from Utah. Oh…and he also jumped in the water to swim with a whaleshark too!

Jorge dorado small tags  4-14

Big smile and a two-handed batch of dorado for everyone’s amigo, Jorge Romero, who also took some time this week to check out the fishing. He got a total of 4 dorado for the day.

FRUSTRATING FISHING BUT SOME NICE HIGHLIGHTS ON A TOUGH WEEK

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of April 27-May 4, 2014

It was somewhat of a frustrating week of fishing.  It started well.  It ended fairly well.  But in between, it was a bit rugged.

We had some promise going into the week but then strong winds and some really high tidal surges and waves seemed to have not only stirred up the waters, but also chased away the bits of live bait spots we had as well as brought up cooler waters and some rougher waves.  Not exactly the best conditions or situations for fishing.  Just being honest.

There were some highlights, however.  What we lacked in quantity and action we tended to make up for it in some nice quality fishing.  There were some good-sized rooster fish taken that ran 30-60 pounds and some larger ones broken off.  All of them released.

There were also some larger dorado in the area as well that helped out as well.  Some of the pangas got limits or near limits some days.  Not everyone, but several boats a day would do well.  It just depended on the the spot as well as the luck and skill of the anglers.

But, truth be told, there were days this week when boats came back with nothing…either because of simple bad luck or losing fish or choosing to chase a fish that was “hot”one day, but cooled off the next.   I especially felt badly for a pair of flyfishing anglers we had that fished hard and hardcore like troopers for the entire week and pretty much came up goose-egged.  It wasn’t a good week for flyfishing…and tough for the conventional fishing as well.  Despite some nice catches, it might have been one of the more frustrating weeks of the young season.

The highlight would had to have been the wahoo that went on the bite again.  Every day, we took a few and lost even more to the speedy toothy fish.  But, for many of our anglers, it was their first wahoo with some decent 20-35 pound ‘hoos brought into the boat.  South end of Cerralvo Island was our hot spot trolling Rapala and YoZuri lures.

 

 That’s our story!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report from Tailhunter International Sportfishing La Paz for Week of April 20-27, 2014

Taylor Murphey wahoo small 4-14

We got into some wahoo this week and we’re not surprised that young Taylor Murphy fishing with grandpa Roger Thompson got one of them. She always does well. A purple Rapala off the south end of Cerralvo Island did the trick.

Karyn Jennings fish on beach 4-14-proc

Birthday girl! Karyn Jennings was fishing with her husband Greg and had a good birthday week with us in La Paz. Here she shows off a day’s catch with a great mix of dorado, cabrilla and wahoo fishing with our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet. A good bunch of fillets was cooked up at our Tailhunter Restaurant! Karyn is from Colorado.

Dorado Steve Bradley small tags 4-14

First timer, Steve Bradley who lives in Northern California on the Smith River was out with Tailhunter Captain Pancho and got his first dorado just outside of Bahia de Los Muertos. He also got his first rooster, a 30 pounder that was released and lost a larger fish as well.

Wahoo john nagy 4-14 tags

John Nagy from Marina del Ray CA slips quietly in and out’ve La Paz and just nails the fish! I think he got our largest wahoo of the week with this 4- pounder off the south side of Cerralvo Island on a blue and white Rapala. He was fisihing with our Tailhunter driver, Esteban and they also got one other wahoo,  2 pargo, and released a marlin. Nicely done!

 

yellowtail Jenny Raul tags 4-14 small

Yup…still a few lingering yellowtail around in the cooler water. Jenny celebrates with Captain Raul from our Tailhunter La Paz fleet and shows off this big slugger forktail caught near Espirito Santo Island. Jenny is from Colorado.

KLING Ron dorado small tags 4-14

Captain Victor “El Jefe” from our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet poses with first-timer, Ron Kling from Byers, Colorado who came down to catch his first roosterfish. On this particular day, he got 5 roosters between 40 and 50 pounds which he released! And he kept this nice dorado for dinner!

Greg Jennings 4-14 tags

Guys come for years trying to get a sniff from a wahoo fishing our area. Greg Jennings nailed one his first try fishing with our Taihunter Las Arenas fleet just outside of Bahia de Los Muertos.




 

FISHING SLOWLY GETS BETTER WITH WARMER TEMPS

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of April 20-27, 2014

 

There were good and there were bad things about this past week of fishing.  Let’s start with the bad.

There were some really windy days.  Some cooler water temps.  But those things are to be expected this time of year when things are in transition between the warm and colder seasons.  Still, it didn’t always make for the best fishing conditions nor, did it help with getting bait.  Basically, it’s almost like a chart…the higher the wind, the poorer the fishing.  The lower the wind, the better the fishing.   Overall, I’d give this week a so-so rating in terms of fishing.  It’s been worse.  But, normally, it’s a whole lot better.

But, let’s focus on some of the positives.

Take a look at some of this week’s photos.  Yup…wahoo made a nice surprising reappearance this week.  Around the north and sound end of Cerralvo Island, the speedy skinnies were around and willing to eat slow trolled Rapalas and bait.  Sizes ranged from pinky 15 pounders up to about 40 pounds.

Additionally, we had a really great week on the roosters for our Las Arenas anglers.  I think just about everyone who really wanted to check “rooster fish” off the bucket list got at least one.  I don’t have any photos this week because, with much appreciation, all the roosters were released!  But, there were some nice quality fish taken off the sandy beach areas with fish in the 20-45 pound size and some larger that were lost.

To the good stuff, add in a few marlin coming alive and taking some hits, but all of them coming off plus the dorado were still around although not in big numbers as previous weeks.  I still consider the dorado to be our bread-and-butter fish at the moment.  Both our Las Arenas and La Paz fleet had dorado as their predominant go-to fish.  Some decent 20 pounders in the mix, but some larger fish lost to pilot error!

Hope the winds slow down and the bait gets better!  Should all improve as we move closer to summer!

That’s our story!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Repor from Tailhunter International Fleet for Week of April 13-20, 2014

BLOOD MOON 2014

Hope you got to see it! It was pretty amazing to watch the moon go dark…then go red! It was already a HUGE full moon this week ,but extremely amazing to watch the “BLOOD MOON” eclipse! Unfortunately, combined with other factors, it might have had an affect on the fishing this past week…dangit.

 

yellowtail peter koschnitzke small tags 4-14

Captain Boli from our Tailhunter La Paz fleet helps out young Peter Koschnitzke from snowy Colorado who earned himself a cigar and a beer from dad for nailing this slugger-sized yellowtail near Espirito Santo Island. I was told it tasted great with manga salsa!

 

Pargo Tim Butterworth tags 4-14

Pargo were a good bet this week, but putting these tough good-eaters in the boat required some luck and skill as some of our anglers will tell you as they head straight back into the rockpiles! Tim Butterworth hung this fat hog north of La Paz on live bait.

striper in water tags 4-14

With the warmer waters, we’re already seeing some billfish around Cerralvo Island and Las Arenas. Nothing full turbo yet, by any means, but promising! This hundred-pounder was hooked and released out by the buoys east of Bahia de los Muertos.

BLOOD MOON WHAMMY?  TOUGH WEEK OF FISHING

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of April 13-20, 2014

 

Hope everyone had a safe and happy Easter week and weekend!

Well…

Not the best of weeks down here.  Kinda wacky actually.

It’s really hard to put a finger on what happened.  It was sort of a convergence of a lot of things that could have affected the fishing…a variable here and a variable there could have made the difference.

But, fishing was really down! It doesn’t happen often.  The track record here…like any other fishing destination that has a reputation…is that sure…you get the down day now and again.  But it usually bounces back pretty fast.

Well, this week we had several days that were either bad or at best…ho-hum…

But, here’s how the planets lined up that could have made a difference.  Any single one or two of these items usually makes no difference, but perhaps all of them converging at the same time?  I dunno.  Take a look.  All I know is that fishing was off.

1.  Stronger than normal winds…even for this time of year when it can get breezy.  This week we had some white-cap days!

2.  Waters got a little cooler…not warmer as has been the trend.  Maybe caused by the stronger winds!  Fish get lock-jawed when water temps change drastically…especially for the cooler.

3.  Strong winds make it harder to get bait as the shallow areas where we get bait are spanked with waves and the bait scatters or we can’t get up close to the rocks to throw nets.

4.  Combination of #2 and #1 meant clouded green and off-color waters…again affecting fish activity and feeding

5.  THE MOON!  I hardly ever blame things on a full-moon, but in combination with the other factors PLUS it was not only full, but did you see the RED MOON ECLIPSE???  The moon was not only larger than normal, but it eclipsed to dark…then went almost dirty red!  Here in La Paz everyone was out taking photos with their cell phones in the dark. It was pretty funny to see “photos flashes” going off!  (Oh sure…that flash reaches up to the moon!).  But, maybe…just maybe the fish freaked out too!

Anyway, by the time you’re reading this, the full moon will have waned and hopefully the rest of these things will have settled back to normal. Either way, a weird week.

That being said, it was still sunny most days…although we had some weird cloudy days when I thought it would rain.  But day temps are usually in the high 80’s to low 90’s and pretty pleasant.

And, we still managed a few fish here and there.  For our La Paz anglers, yellowtail up to about 30 pounds were found around Espirito Santo Island as well as some sizable barred pargo and some dorado in the 20 pound class.

For our Las Arenas anglers, it was picky.  Some dorado up to about 15 pounds.  Some big bonito.  Some snapper and pargo and a few rooster fish (released) plus some sierra along the beaches.

Still better than working, but the fishing honestly could have been better and hopefully is back on track by the time you’re reading this!

Big smile for Miles! First timer to fish with us in La Paz, Miles, Brown spent the week getting some yellowtail, pargo, dorado (see below) and this nice roosterfish that he released with some help with the pose from Captain Jorge of the Tailhunter fleet. Nice to see the roosters have come in!

dorado miles brown tags 3-14

Hard to believe such nice dorado are in the neighborhood, but they’ve been a welcome surprise like this nice bull taken by Miles Brown just outside of Bahia de Los Muertos. Great eating! Folks ask all the time if it’s good on the plate and then I tell them it’s “mahi mahi” on the restaurant menus!

rooster rod brown tags 3-14

Rod Brown from Wrangell, Alaska is one of our Tailhunter amigos who has fished with us several times a year for many years. He always does well. On this particular day they caught and released several nice roosters right off the beach at Las Arenas which can be seen nearby in the background.

cabrilla pargo brown brothers joel tags 3-14

Here’s some really good eating! Captain Joel on the right fishing out’ve La Paz near Espirito Santo Island with Jeff and Miles Brown hold up some of the toughest to catch but best to eat fish…2 barred pargo and a nice cabrilla (Mexican seabass)

 

SPRING TIME BITE HOLDS VARIETY THIS WEEK

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of March 30-April 6, 2014

This past week was a bit more typical of the kind of fishing we get during the spring time.  With air temps in the low to mid-80’s with great sunshine and cooler evenings and water temperatures in the high 70’s,  the bite reflected the normal transitional bite we see this time of the year.

We still got some breezy days that put some bump out there, but most days were not bad.  Inshore fishing showed up with the usual characters.  Some sierra, pargo and cabrilla were among this in the rocky reef and sandy areas.  A few straggler yellowtail are here and there, but largely, with the waters a bit warmer than normal, our usual yellowtail numbers are down from normal.

The best news was that we finally got into rooster fish…basically, the fish that put our Las Arenas area on the fishing map as the “rooster fish capital of the world.”  The world record 114 pound rooster fish was caught on these white-sand beaches and last year, we had one of the most spectacular rooster fish seasons in all our years down here.  Last year, our “average” rooster was 40-90 pounds and we had a number fish over 100 pounds and one fish that was released that many estimated would have been close to 150-pounds and shatter the world record.

This past week, using live bait, we finally tied into some of these exotic fish with some fish rolling right around 20-40 pounds…all released, but encouraging that the fish are in place and willing to bite.  We’ll have to keep an eye out on this, but so far pretty good news.

With other species, we’re still hitting the dorado as well which have really become our bread-and-butter these past few months.  As waters warmed faster than normal, the dorado sort of either came in early or else never left us from last season.  The fish we’re getting now are generally not schoolie-fish, but more like free swimmer solo or small group fish.  However, there’s some respectable fish.  Most are about 10 pounders, but there’s some 15-25 pounders around as well.

WANT A WORLD RECORD?  TAILHUNTERS IS OFFICIAL NEW IGFA WEIGH STATION

WP_20140327_14_48_39_Pro

Jill and I with our amigos, Pat McDonell editor for Western Outdoor New and IGFA representative; world record holder, author and journalist, Gary Graham holding one of the new official IGFA “release” scales that we now have at Tailhunters Sportfishing that can be used to officially measure catch-and-release fish. Released fish can now be submitted to the IGFA for world record status! We plan to go after a few this year. As well, our Tailhunter offices on the La Paz malecon also had a certified scale for conventionally caught fish that can be submitted for all-tackle and line-class world records.

Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez the “Aquarium of the World” and with more than 700 known species of fish and more being discovered yearly, it’s easy to see why.  The area around La Paz is considered one of the best light tackle fisheries on the planet and arguably more world records have been set in the surrounding waters than few other places!

So, Tailhunter Sportfishing is jazzed to announce that we’re an official International Fish and Game Association (IGFA) weigh station.  We have a certified scale at our headquarter offices on the La Paz waterfront and within a few months will have handheld certified scales for the beaches as well.

Even moreso, we’re  excited about the fact that the IGFA now certifies fish that are caught and released!  This is great news creating more opportunities to be a world record holder.  To that end, we’ve now got official “release scales” that can be brought out on one of our pangas for folks looking to catch-and-release a world record!  An official IGFA measuring scale MUST be used to measure and release the fish.

Additionally, given that Las Arenas is considered the roosterfish capital of the world,  Tailhunter Sportfishing is now a member of the ROOSTERFISH FOUNDATION and we’ve ordered a number of tagging guns so that released roosters can now be tagged and recorded to hopefully proliferate the resource.  We will hopefully have some of these devices in the next few weeks.

All of this is great news because our “LA PAZ PANGA SLAM” being held June 17-21 and sponsored by Western Outdoor News has now turned into a great opportunity to go after some of these world release records as well as hopefully having the first official “tag and release” roosterfish event!   (We still have some spots left if you’re interested, send us an e-mail to riplipboy@tailhunter-international.com).

There are many categories that can be attained…especially for kids and women and line class records are always a possibility as well.  Last year, we had 4 potential world record fish caught by our clients!

We’ll keep you updated as this comes along!

That’s our story!

SPRINGTIME CONDITIONS BRING VARIETY!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of March 23-30, 2014

 

 

Except for a few breezy days, it was more like late spring/ early summer style fishing this past week.  Air temps were in the low to mid-80’s and actually pretty pleasant.  Water temperatures which have risen unseasonably high have been in the mid-70’s to low 80’s.

The resulting effect was a decent mix of fish.  Some cool water fish.  Some warm water fish.  But, overall a nice variety.

The cooler water fish mostly taken inshore and in shallow areas included some nice yellowtail up to 25 pounds.  Nothing widespread, but a smattering here and there.  As well, we took some nice slugger pargo, cabrilla and sierra around both islands.  Some good fish were lost to the rocks…not unusual when big fish are holding close to structure like reefs and rocks!

Warm water fish…well, once again…dorado!  We’ve been getting them on and off for about 2 months now. Way early for a normal season, but once again the warm water species were found anywhere from the islands, to the shallows around the beaches, near the buoys and free-swimming in the channel.  No great numbers, but every day a few dorado here and there.  Mixed with the other species, it made for some interesting boxes of fish coming back in our pangas each day.

We’re going to keep an eye on these water temperatures!  Those temperatures will dictate what we’ll be catching.

THANKS EVERYONE!  ANOTHER ONE FOR THE BOOKS!

RoldansWEB

We’re finally headed home to La Paz.  After almost 3 months on the road encompassing almost 15,000 miles of driving…9 states…10  hunting and fishing shows including:  Sacramento, Denver, Puyallup (Seattle), Portland, Yakima, Phoenix, Boise, Long Beach, Salt Lake City and this past week in San Diego.  Whew!!!

And what a grand time we had…almost 20 years doing this now and every year it just gets better and better!  Jill and I want to thank all our amigos who came to see us at the shows and everyone during the 3 months for their friendship, support, encouragement and smiles.  And to all our friends for making us feel welcome and all the hospitality on the road…all the gifts…food…drinks…invitations…Tailhunter tribe members are the best!

Now, let’s head home to La Paz and get some fish! God bless you all!

That’s our story!

sierra cindy from Oregon 3-14 small tags

That’s a big sierra! Great eating and feisty on light tackle, Cindy holds up a trophy sierra she nailed trolling Cerralvo Island with the purple rapala you see in the photo. Cousins to the wahoo, these guys make super ceviche!  (Thanks for the photo, Hawk!)

dorado water tags 3-14

Dorado were the mainstay for our anglers this week as waters up to 80 degrees have moved into our fishing holes bringing the warm water species as well. This female was hooked just outside of Bahia de Los Muertos and released, but we’ve been getting some bulls up to 20-25 pounds.

Dennis McGuffee tags cabrilla small 3-14

Inshore action has been good for light tackle and the flyrod like this cabrilla (Mexican seabass) that Dennis McGuffee caught fishing with Captain Archangel from Tailhunters. Dennis is from Colorado.

Here is why we're getting so many warm water fish...WARM WATER!  This is the latest ocean satellite reading from www.terrafin.com showing water temps.  The copper colors are in the 80's and the greens are the high 70's!

WARM WATER SPECIES AGAIN TOP CATCHES

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of March 16-23, 2014

Unless something dramatic happens, which might not be good, I would venture to say that cold-water fishing is pretty much done for the year.  Given the patterns and catches all winter, our chilly-water season has come and gone…what there was of it!

Whether that’s good or bad depends on how you look at it.  For fishermen coming in the spring to chase yellowtail, I think they might be disappointed.  There’s still yellowtail around, but certainly not in the numbers we’re used to seeing this year.  Our divers say there’s a colder water thermocline down deep that seems to be where the fish are holding.  But, the warmer waters on the surface…up 78 degrees around Cerralvo and into the 80’s on the outer banks!   There are still some other species around that are great fun like the spawning pargo and reef-bound cabrilla, but frankly no one has really been chasing these challenging species, not when there’s top water species around that are easier to catch and less frustrating.

That would be the other way to look at things.

The warm water species have really not left.  They’ve slowed a bit, but folks…we’ve been catching dorado since Christmas.  We’ve had little jags of wahoo and even tuna throughout the winter and even the occasional marlin.  These are all “glamor “ species we don’t see until later in the season…at least late spring or so.  The warm waters have kept these fish in the area and that’s what folks have been catching.  They’re fun.  They’re impressive fighters.  They’re great eating.  What’s not to like?  Captains, as a pragmatic issue, will also follow the path of “least resistance.”

No sense in chasing bottom fish like pargo or amberjack that will bite, but will frustrate the anglers and possibly send them home with empty fish boxes when dorado are swimming around and make for fast action and great fun and Kodak moments on the beach.  Same with cabrilla which are tasty and small…3-5 pounds…then there’s 20 pound dorado swimming around.  Yes…20 pound dorado…and some larger!

This past week our some of our pangas got limits of dorado up to 25 pounds…plus cabrilla…plus a few small roosters…bonito and jack crevalle.  Good action.  There were some yellowtail caught by commercial guys around Cerralvo Island and north of La Paz, but early in the week there were some huge winds that kept everyone close or not even going out.

At the beginning, I said that a dramatic change might not be good.  Given the current warmth of our waters, if something dramatic happens, like a sudden decrease in open temperature and everything got cold, I don’t think that would be a good thing. In our past experience, that might just shock the waters and the fish.  The waters would turn green and murky and fish wouldn’t bite.  That’s just speculation on my part, but I’d rather have fish biting than possibly none at all!  Even if they are dorado and billfish!  Nothing wrong with that.  And nothing wrong with the ocean either!  It’s just another cycle that we go through and this year just happens to be warmer than normal!

END OF THE ROAD!  WE’LL BE IN SAN DIEGO THIS WEEK!

DSC02082

Sr. Agustin Olachea, head of the La Paz Hotel Association, came all the way up from La Paz to visit us at the Long Beach Fred Hall show! He does alot to help bring tourism to La Paz and Baja, Sur.  Great to have him visit us to see what we do at the shows!

DSC02095

We’re coming back to La Paz! The scene at our booth in Long Beach two weeks ago as Jill and Don Busse and his gang of amigos toast the upcoming fishing trip returning to fish with us in October!

Our Tailhunter 2014 Road Tour started at the end of December and it’s finally coming to an end..sadly!  Because we’ve had a blast driving all over the country and visiting so many of our amigos at the west’s largest fishing and hunting shows!  We’ve been doing it now for almost 20 years!  Our road show started with us driving from San Diego to the Sacramento ISE show….then across to the Denver ISE show…then to the Puyallup Fairgrounds in Washington.  Then it was just south to the Portland Expo Center.  From there to the fairgrounds in Yakima, Washington.

We then took that long drive from Washington all the way to the Phoenix ISE show at the football stadium.  Then back north we went to Boise, Idaho for another great show.  Then back south to the Long Beach Fred Hall Fishing and Boating show.  Last week we drove to Salt Lake City at the ISE show there in Sandy, Utha.  Now, we’re here in San Diego!  Finally!   What a long fun trip it has been!  We rocked!

So, come see us starting Thursday for the Fred Hall Fishing show at the Del Mar Fairgrounds near San Diego.  The show goes until Sunday and both Jill and I will be in the booth. Come say hi and let’s chat about having you come fishing this year in La Paz.  Here’s more information about the show and how to get discounted tickets!   Click the link:

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report from Tailhunter International Fishing Fleet La Paz for Week of March 9-16, 2014

Jaff Barnham tags 2-14 dorado

Dorado in winter? Yup! Jeff Burnham from Larkspur CO came down to wet some lines with us and stuck this nice bull fishing off Las Arenas. The nice mahi was taken just outside Bahia de Los Muertos!

Larry Cornwall dorado tags 3-14

Nothing wrong with this colorful bull dorado with big smiles and a great catch by our amigo, Larry Cornwall. Hard to believe getting this kind of fish in March!

wahoo jorge tags 3-14

Yes! There’s wahoo around Cerralvo Island right now, like this pair of speedy skinnies shown off by our Tailhunter Captain Jorge on the beach at Bahia de Los Muertos.

dorado Dennis McGuffee tags 3-14

With Tailhunter captain Archangel checking the water for any “followers” as dorado will often do, Dennis McGuffee poses with another sweet mahi while fishing out’ve Bahia de Los Muertos. After this they came inshore and using light tackle played with numerous inshore species.

Jeff Barnham cabrilla 314

More like it! This is normally, what we’re catching this time of year…cabrilla (seabass) like this tasty one caught by Jeff Burnham.

DSC02129

We had an incredible time in Salt Lake City! What a party at the International Sportsmens Expo with lots of sign ups for our 2014 La Paz fishing season and great photo ops for Jill and our amigas!

SPRING-LIKE CONDITIONS SET THE SCENE AND THE FISHING…UNTIL THE WEEKEND!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of March 9-16, 2014

As one of our anglers said, “It’s incredible.  It’s like fishing in May down here right now!”  And that about sums it up.  “I come down and expect winter fishing and instead encounter dorado right in the bay!”

He has it pegged about right.

Unseasonably warm water has turned the fishing somewhat on it’s head.  Normally, we’re getting yellowtail and sierra and other cool-water fish this time of year and instead we’ve run into a pretty steady jag of dorado up to about 20 pounds…flirted with shots of wahoo several times a week…caught the occasional tuna…and even hooked a few marlin!  All fish, we don’t normally see until late spring and even early summer!

As well, there have been some surprising catches of amberjack in the 20-80 pound class to go with cabrilla (sea bass), pargo (snapper), sierra and bonito and the occasional yellowtail as well.

This past week, the highlight were probably the dorado that were free-swimming literally within yards of the beach at times.   Some of these fish were respectable quality fish too with some decent bulls in the panga boxes.  The fish ranged from Bahia de Los Muertos out to the buoys and around the island.  They weren’t highly concentrated and it wasn’t a wide-open bite by any stretch, but the fact that the fish are even here this early and have been since January is remarkable.  When we did run into the fish, our anglers were getting 2-4 fish per panga mixed with some of the other species.

But, just like they say in the commercials…”But wait!”

We also took a few wahoo off the island early in the week and some smaller roosterfish are starting to show as well.  All good signs!  Throw in a few sierra some action on the bonito and there was some OK action this week.

At least until the weekend hit.  Mother Nature slammed us back with a reminder that March comes in like a lion and roared in with 30-40 mph winds more characteristic of this time of year!  The high winds pretty much shut things down for the weekend.  But, it’s going to be like that at times and we’ll just have to keep an eye out for this.

mark martis wahoo 2-14 tags

Mark Martis visits La Paz several times a year and our amigo has been fishing with Tailhunter for well over a decade. He often surprises us with his great catches, but this surprise catch this past week with Captain Victor was this spectacular wahoo taken off Cerralvo Island.  Officially our first wahoo of the season!

The Tailhunter Tour showed up for the Pacific Northwest Sportsmans Show this week in Portland Oregon and got slammed with a freak 4 day snow and ice storm that virtually froze everything in the city and shut down much of Portland. We still had a great show!

Like I said, we still had a spectacular show in Portland with lots of amigos visiting Jill and I including Matt, Tim and Phil who stopped to say hi and take a quick photo at our Tailhunter booth. Next stop…YAKIMA, Washington.

A WEEK OF SURPRISES FOR FISHING WEEK!

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Feb. 2-9, 2014

I’m not sure how to describe the week.  OK, we got some fish.  Yes, it was a little breezy and yes, it was a little bumpy some day out there.  But that’s typical of this time of year.  In all honesty, we didn’t get ALOT of fish.  So, best to be truthful.

However, that’s not what made the week remarkable.

What made it remarkable was the quality of the fish we got!

OK, we got a few cabrilla and some bonito and some sierra.  Ho-hum.  That’s about par for winter fishing right now.  But, whereas we got those big pargo snapper last week and I thought we were going to go zipping into pargo season, the pargo didn’t show.

Instead,  it was a week of FIRSTS!

…we got our first yellowtail of the season…some nice 25-pound fish.  These fish ate some slow trolled big Rapalas as well as slow-trolled ballyhoo that caused the fish to blow up.  Secondly, we also got…(hold on…drumroll…)  WAHOO!!!  Yup.  Wahoo, in winter at the south end of Cerralvo Island. Our first wahoo of the season!

On top of that we got dorado still biting.  Dorado are SUMMER fish!  What’s up with that?  I have a feeling this could be a wacky start to the season.  Every week, we’re running into something different.  That just makes it fun.

TAILHUNTER TOUR LEAVES PORTLAND SHOW AND MOVES TO YAKIMA WASHINGTON!

DSC02030

It was an incredible crazy snow-filled week in Portland as a freaky 4-day snowstorm pretty much shut down the city! We still had a great time and booked lots of La Paz fishing trips and saw lots of our amigos!

Our 3-month Tailhunter Road Tour says adios to one of our favorite cities in Portland, Oregon where we had a crazy week of an unusual snow and ice storm that pretty much froze the city…and us!  But, we had a great show and now move onto the CENTRAL WASHINGTON SPORTSMEN SHOW in YAKIMA, WASHINGTON!  The show is a fun 3-day event from Friday to Sunday, Feb. 14-16th.  Come say his and let’s talk about visiting us in La Paz this year…where it’s WARM!

For more details, click the link:  CENTRAL WASHINGTON SPORTSMEN SHOW

Hope to see you then!  Have a great week!

That’s our story!

carl lang pargo 1-14 tags

Horse buster! Carl Lange from Bakersfield  CA fished 4 days this week ending the week by sticking some trophy pargo liso just off the rocks fishing with Captain Pancho. The big fish have moved into the shallows now for their spring spawn.

pargo ken tags 1-14

He fishes with us several times a year, but our amigo, Ken Gragg, found a way to save a tough week of fishing by catching some dorado, sierra, some bonito and also took home some nice pargo meat from big pargo they caught off Punta Perrico.

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY –

PARGO SAVE THE WEEK!

La Paz  – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Jan. 26 to Feb. 2, 2014

The week started off in typical winter fashion with 80 degree sun, but quite a bit of wind making it bouncy and rough on the waters.  The fishing reflected it as well.  There were a few unseasonable dorado caught but beyond that, just a few sierra and bonito.  A bit of action, but nothing to write home about.  But that’s also why we don’t have many fishermen around during the winter.  If you’re looking for some sunshine and some fishing action, you’ll be fine, but if you’re searching for flat waters and quality fish, it can be elusive.

However, as the week went on the winds calmed and the seas flattened.

Correspondingly, the fish bite improved.  Our folks saw yellowtail, but couldn’t get anything to go.  However, the big pargo have moved into the shallows to spawn.  Those are always great…and often frustrating…sport!

These fish can be huge.  And they can be in incredibly shallow waters littered with rocks, reefs and caves. The photos don’t do these tough fish justice.  These are some of the most powerful fish to hook and the ones we see in photos are the “smaller ones” we get to the boat.  Veteran anglers and divers will be full of stories of fish “large enough to put a saddle on their backs” and “stronger in short runs than any fish in Baja.”

So hooking them is one aspect.  Getting them to the boat is test of wills and good tackle!  These fish hit like a train and go straight back down to the rocks  Given it can only be a few feet deep, often you’re lost before you know it and so is the fish!  If you don’t pull hard and turn their heads, they’ll rock you!  We call these “zing powie” fish because that’s the sound your tight lines make before they sing and snap!

Pargo fishing is an entirely different dimension of fishing and can be great fun and frustration!  We have guys who specifically come each season to go hand-to-hand with these fish.  Great eating too!

TAILHUNTERS ROLLS INTO PORTLAND!

DSC01995

We’re now moving the Tailhunter Road Show and booth to the Portland Expo Center!  We’ve been on the road now for a month.  We’ve driven to super shows in Sacramento…then Denver…then Puyallup (Seattle/Tacoma)…and now we’re here in another of our favorite cities…PORTLAND!  The city on the Columbia River and one of our largest shows of the tour.  It’s a monster…it’s a beast…it’s grand fun for 5 days from Wednesday to Sunday…Feb. 5-9…Portland Expo Center!

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

The view from Bahia de Los Muertos where we launch every day for the fishing grounds. Despite the great sunshine and seemingly tranquil waters, just beyond the point, many of the days were pretty choppy. Fortunately, fishing is close!

la paz 2010 078

Sierra…the speedy toothy gamefish that makes great sport and tasty ceviche was our mainstay for the week like this guy that Tim’s holding in front of the camera. Light tackle is great for these guys that can get 3 times this size.

DSCN0373

Commercial fishermen started getting into some of our seasonal yellowtail this week as shown by some of the catch laying on the beach. Unfortunately, we were doing more fishing than catching as the powerful jacks we hooked all broke off.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Yes! Whale watching season is back at Bahia Magdalena and we’re running daily trips out to see these great creatures in th calm bay waters! The whales are usually here until mid-March so let us know if you’d like us to set up a tour for you!

 

ANOTHER WINDY WEEK DOESN’T

HELP COMFORT LEVEL

La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of January 19-26, 2014

This past week was more typical of winter fishing in La Paz.  In a word…WINDY!  Northern winds kept things blustery, cool and bumpy on the water, but fortunately, being the off-season, there weren’t that many fishermen on the water and those that did fish this week have fished during this time in the past and knew what they were going to encounter or, in the alternative, were happy just to get out into some sunshine!  It was sunny, no doubt and temperatures were in the 70’s, but windy by our standards and cool as well.  But for folks from Canada and the mid-west, they were just looking for a day out on the water in the sunshine!

As for fishing, again, typical of this time of year when the winds blow.  Sierra provided the most action inshore along the reefs and beach drop-offs.  In the rock areas and reefs, smaller pargo, snapper and cabrilla (sea bass) were willing to bite chunks of dead bait like squid.  We know there have been dorado the past few weeks, but nothing came up this week in the usual areas made more difficult by the bumpy waters.    However, we did have some yellowtail and larger pargo hooked and lost.  It’s sort of a double whammy.  These fish are the season trophy fish and mean as heck and powerfully built with attitude.  Rookies or folks not ready to put some bend on these fish are quickly schooled when the fish power back into the rocks and the line breaks.  Still, it’s very encouraging to know these bad boys are in our waters!

THANKS WASHINGTON!  TAILHUNTER NOW GOES TO PORTLAND!

DSC02007

So many friends visit us in our Tailhunter booth like John and Dolores Ehlers, our amigos who have fished with us for many years, but represent Eagle Point Lodge in Alaska. We just had a great week of shows in Washington and now head for Portland, Oregon!

We just wrapped up our third show of the tour season with an incredible show at the Washington Sportsman’s Show at the Puyallup Fairgrounds between Seattle and Tacoma.  It was five incredible days and great to see so many of our amigos and tons of reservations for fishing with us in La Paz in 2014!  We’re excited to welcome so many new folks and old tribal members who are coming to fish with us this year!  Thanks to all who visited!

We move on now to the Northwest Sportsmens Expo at the Portland Expo Center right next to the Columbia River in northern Portland.  This show is huge and always one of our biggest plus I think we have a huge number of amigos in the area who come to visit us.  The show runs Feb. 5-9.  Come see us to say hi…check out our new brochure plus new hat and t-shirt designs and set up your 2014 La Paz fishing trip.  Click the link for more information and how to get discount tickets:  Pacific Northwest Sportmans Show

Have a great week!
