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

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

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!

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!

JR and JILL 3-14

 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!
