A bit windier this week with a few days that were really bouncy, but still overall really pleasant conditions. But, as we get closer to winter we're going to see more winds and especially winds from the north. But, for that very reason is why we're doing most of our fishing from Las Arenas right now since we can launch from the beach at Bahia de Los Muertos where we're a bit more protected from the winds and it's also easier since the fishing is much closer...like RIGHT THERE!
I'm not kidding. We're getting a variety of fish within minutes of where we launch. The bay itself is holding some decent rooster fish up to about 40 pounds. By the northern point of rocks, there's jack crevalle and cabrilla. As soon as you pass the point, drop the lures and there's always the possibility of wahoo literally within a hundred yards of the rocks! Go south or just outside to the buoys and you can hit dorado.
Anywhere in between, there's also the chance of more wahoo, billfish (sails mostly), pargo, and bonito. Great variety and in between these gusty days, conditions are about as pleasant as you could want with air temps in the low 80's and water temps just about the same. Just be flexible on your fishing days, if you can, in case the day you want to go out looks like the wind is going to kick in.
Keep an eye out as well. There's so much sea life out there. Schools of dolphin...sea turtles...whalesharks...blue whales...manta rays. Pretty incredible time to be in La Paz!

Perfect conditions...willing fish...lots of variety...light traffic...a nice action week of fishing! Our anglers this past week probably could not have asked for better conditions that we often get at this time of the year. There can be days as we transition from warmer to colder conditions where the winds blow strong and cool and it gets a bit choppy. We'll see more of those kinds of days as we get closer to December, but this past week wasn't one...... Read More

After nervously watching to see if late-season hurricane "Vance" was going to make up it's mind and give us a scare, it turned into not much of anything except a few raindrops and some wind! And we're not complaining. It's pretty late in the year to be seeing storms like this and, you can tell how many storms we have had by the fact that we've almost gone through the whole alphabet and are on letter "V" for "Vance."......
