Another difficult billfish catching week week and even the dorado
counts fell off with the full moon phase. Throw in about 10 hours of
hard rain on Tuesday and one could say it just isn't the way it's
supposed to be when fishing from Cabo San Lucas at this time of
year. The lack of fish has perpetuated into a lack of anglers and
boats fishing. The overall fish counts for the offshore areas for 19
combined fishing days reflected 2 stripers released, 28 yellowfin
tuna, 6 skipjack tuna, 37 dorado, 29 yellowtail and 42 sierra.
Cabo Climate: From a very rainy Tuesday (10 hours of rain) to mostly
sunny and warm by the weekend with temps from 57 nights to 79 daytime
highs.
Sea Conditions: Falling on the Pacific with temps from the Finger
Bank to Cabo Falso at 72 and then rising to 73-74 by the Gorda Banks
area.
Best Fishing Area: The boats are starting to search wider areas as
no concentration of fish were showing up in the normal Pacific side
area.
Best Bait/Lure: Live bait was best for the 2 stripers and dorado and
for the yellowtail. Most of the tuna were taken on feathers & cedar
plugs.
Live Bait Supply: Remained good through the full moon, but mostly
caballitos.
