Dorado continue to be the dominant action fish for the Cabo area and
most of the boats are averaging 2-4 dorado per day fished with most
of the action coming from the Pacific side of Cabo. The striper
action increased slightly this past week but still, it's below the
historic annual averages for November and everyone is beginning to
wonder if the big schools of stripers will show up this year. While
there are more stripers showing that in weeks gone by, they sure
don't have much interest in chewing on the bait being presented.
High billfish boatt for the week was the "Gaviota IV", with Captain
Octavio Castillo, producing 6 stripers released for 4 days fished.
Overall catches for a combined total of 38 days fished reflected 20
stripers, (18 released) 2 sailfish released, 7 wahoo, 29 yellowfin
tuna, 2 roosterfish and 114 dorado.
Cabo Climate: Warm, mostly sunny days and cool nights, with temps
from 62 nights to 80 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Pacific side, from the Finger Bank to Cristobal
Ridge holding at 76 degrees with a temp break to 78 from Cristobal to
Cabo. Rising to 79-80 from Cabo to Gorda Banks. Mostly light
surface breezes and very fishable conditions throughout the area.
Best Fishing Area: On the Pacific side from Cristobal to Migrino and
on a line from Cabo Falso to the Golden Gate Bank.
Best Lure/Bait: Live bait was best for the billfish but hard to get
them to bite on anything.
Live Bait Supply: So far, even during the pending full moon, the
bait supply has not been a problem.
