Dorado in the winter? That was a big surprise this week as a number of our anglers got into the dorado not too far off the beach near Bahia de Los Muertos. Captain Jorge with our Tailhunter Fleet shows off the kind of fish we were catching!

More typical of our winter fishing are the schools of sierra that come up into the shallows and make for great light tackle fun plus great eating like this one taken just off the sand at Punta Arenas.

Yes! It’s about that time again. Each year the incredible migration of the gray whales takes place and the visitors take up a 3 month residence near us at Bahia Magdalena about 3 hours from La Paz.

FISHING REBOUNDS…SOMEWHAT NICELY AFTER HOLIDAY SLOWDOWN!
La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Jan 5-12, 2014
The fishing rebounded somewhat from the slow windy week we had the previous week to start the year. The key really seemed to be the winds. They can get pretty blustery this time of year and there’s usually a direct correlation between winds…the number of fish caught…the types of fish caught…and definitely the number of anglers out there!
But, this past week the winds were at least a tad more forgiving and as might be expected, there was an upswing in the fish. The surprising thing was that we didn’t get the type of fish we might expect this time of year. Normally, we see inshore fish like sierra, and cabrilla (sea bass), bonito and jack crevalle.
And yes, we did get some of those! But, what really surprised me were the dorado that showed up! Yea…that’s right, dorado. A real treat since dorado tend to always be warm water fish and the type of fish we get in the summer and warmer months of the fall. Not winter!
Anyway, a nice bonus with fish around 6-10 pounds. Nothing earth-shattering, but 3-6 fish per panga is pretty sweet for a day of winter fishing to be able to bring some mahi mahi back home to the ice chest and grill!
TAILHUNTER ROAD SHOW GOES TO DENVER!
