Big smiles from Amy Kasper from Wyoming who got a limit of nice dorado fishing with Captain Jorge with our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet.
A good example of some of our cooler water species that are becoming more pre-dominant was the seasons change. Aaron Chipley holds up some of the best-eating fish in our area…a sierra and a cabrilla (Mexican seabass).

Yes, we’re still hooking marlin and sailfish this late in the season. Bob and Craig Brown with Captain Armando hooked this one and weren’t able to release it, but donated much of the meat. They were fishing near Cerralvo Island.

Dorado are still giving us plenty of good action as Jeff and Craig pull up a few nicer models on the beach.
COOLER WATERS AND BREEZES STILL PRODUCE END OF SEASON FISH
La Paz – Las Arenas Fishing Report for Week of Nov. 3-10, 2013
We had a pretty good week of fishing here in La Paz, but once again, it’s obvious that the seasons are changing. It’s definitely cooler and windier these days and for at least two days this week, the winds and chop really hampered the fishing. However, for the most part, since most of our anglers fish several days, an “off-day” gets made up on other days!
The dorado really keep us in the game, as they have for the past two or three months. Lots of school-sized 10-15 pounders, but this week, we found a few jags of larger fish off Cerralvo Island wind permitting with fish in the 20 -30 pound category that could quickly fill up a cooler.
Almost all our fishing now is with our Tailhunter Las Arenas fleet unless someone really wants to fish out’ve La Paz As mentioned above, the winds are kicking up now and when the northern winds blow, it’s just too difficult to head north out’ve the bay and get beat up heading to the fishing grounds. It’s just easier to drive over to Bahia de Los Muertos and fish on the lee side of Cerralvo Island or the lee of Bahia de Los Muertos and still find fish without getting wet or your teeth jarred out’ve your head!
In addition to the dorado, we were also getting marlin and sailfish with all fish being released plus some pargo and cabrilla and no shortage of bonito for fun. A few rooster fish along the beach in the 30 pound class plus jack crevalle rounded things out. We did have several biters of wahoo, but the sharp teeth made quick work of the lines and no fish were brought to the boats.

In a dramatic last-minute win, after two-days of fishing, the boat “Reel Quest” pulled into the Cabo San Lucas scales with a 192.4 pound yellowfin tuna to sweep the money boards at the 15th Annual Los Cabos Western Outdoor News Tuna Jackpot Tournament.
With more than 540 thousand dollars on the line, 7 teams shared the purse, but the big money winner were the team on the “REEL QUEST” that took the big money of $242 thousand dollars with a 192.4 pound yellowfin tuna.
As is our usual this time of year, Jill and I spent the week working at the 15th Annual Los Cabos Western Outdoor News Tuna Jackpot Tournament in Cabo San Lucas. It was a great time. The slogan is “Fish Hard. Party Harder” and there was plenty of both with 4 days of partying and 2 full days of hard-core tuna fishing.
Seven teams shared the purse of over $540 thousand dollars with the big money being taken by the team on “REEL QUEST” who dramatically won in the last few minutes of the 2nd day of competition. They pulled in with a 192.4 pound yellowfin tuna to sweep the money boards.
The tournament was the largest of the year for Cabo San Lucas with 134 teams from around the world participating in the big event. In addition to the big money purses, the event also raised thousands of dollars for several charities.
