Cabo San Lucas - March 10th, 2008

RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Excellent
Hi Folks,
You just cant beat Cabo for the weather, it's absolutely perfect with long sunny days and daytime highs around 80 degrees.
The offshore fishing has been really slow for striped marlin and dorado. Count yourself lucky if you get one striped marlin a day with conventional gear. The yellow-fin tuna are 30 miles out. The fish are football sized and can be found under the porpoise.
The inshore fly and spin fishing continues to be really good for sierra mackerel, jack cravelle, roosterfish, and cubera snappers.
Ask Peter Bowers. Peter owner of the Patient angler fly shop in Bend, Oregon caught 15 roosterfish on the fly, plus tons of sierra mackerel on the fly. Peter said it was a awesome day on the water!
Fly fishing writer Robert Tomes from Chicago, Illinois. had another great day on the water, he caught sierra mackerels and then we came across a school of Cubera snappers on top. He made the perfect cast and the snapper took my brown rat fly.

FISHING: Great
Hey Patient Anglers,
Sorry about not posting any reports lately, but I’ve been down in sunny Cabo San Lucas chasing inshore game fish on the fly and working on my tan.
I went down with a small group from Bend to fish for Roosterfish, Jack Crevalle, Sierra, Yellowtail and any other inshore fish we could find. We had great weather while we were there, with temps in the 80’s, lots of sun and not a lot of wind. Reed Teuscher, who works for me in the shop, came down for the first week to get some experience and training in the art of saltwater fly fishing, as well to take in some of the sights, sounds and sun of the tip of Baja.
We fished with Grant Hartman from Baja Anglers and water conditions were pretty good for us with warm inshore waters, which makes catching fish on the fly more productive. Saltwater fish are more aggressive to teasers and flies when the water temps are up.
On the Pacific side of Baja we found bigger swells and rougher water conditions (which in normal for this time of year), but the fishing was good with large schools of good size Sierra that aggressively came to the fly. We had shots at small schools of Yellowtail, some Jacks and a few Pompano, but the Sierra made up the bulk of our catch on the Pacific side.
We venture over to the East Cape side of Baja in search of the elusive Roosterfish, since we couldn’t find any on the Pacific side. After fishing for an hour or two with no action, and about the time we started to second-guess our decision to fish the East Cape, we found the Roosterfish. They were small in size for the most part, but they were Roosterfish and they were aggressive. Reed & Thu were on the boat that day and both first timers to the Chinese fire drill of catching Roosterfish on the fly. We had a ball taking turns casting to Roosterfish that would chase the teaser to the boat like a pack of dogs chasing the rabbit at a dog track. The action continued all afternoon for us until we were tired from casting, hooking, fighting and landing Roosters on the fly. The growing hunger for fresh Sierra Ceviche and a cold beer helped a little too.
We fished the beach a few days, once on the Pacific side and another day on the East Cape. We did manage to hook a few Sierras from the beach overcoming some larger than normal wave conditions, but still a great way to spend a day…Or A Couple Weeks!
I'll be posting some pictures of the trip over the next couple of days.

FLY HOOKER SPORTFISHING
Captain George Landrumgmlandrum@hotmail.comwww.flyhooker.comCabo Fish ReportFeb 25-March 2, 2008 WEATHER: It warmed up a bit this past week with several days where our highs were in the mid to high 80’s. On the cooler days we were in the high 70’s, still just about right. In the evening it cooled off quite a bit and on the cold nights we were seeing temperatures in the mid 60’s with a bit of an evening breeze working that made it feel even cooler. There were partly cloudy skies for the first part of the week but it cleared later on. There was no rain, of course.WATER: I fished both sides of the cape this week, on the Cortez side on Wednesday and the Pacific on Friday and they were surprisingly similar as far as surface conditions went. On the Cortez side the water was cool and green out as far as the 95 spot and the 1150, past that point and out to the Cabrilla Seamount things warmed up to 73.4 degrees and were nice and blue. The only problem we had was the fact that we could not find any fish! The surface was almost glassy with current rips easily seen and the swells slight at 1-2 feet but all we ended up with was seeing some common Pacific Dolphin, a few Humpback Whales and two Striped Marlin on the surface. Oh, we did release on 3-pound Dorado. On the Pacific side on Friday the water within three miles of the coast was a bit bumpy and there was a strong cloud line out 15 miles. We went 31 miles out looking for Tuna and other than the first three miles, the swells were slight at 2-4 feet and the water was glassy, almost summer time like. The water was a slight bit cooler at 71 degrees but we did find football-size Tuna to 25 pounds.BAIT: Mackerel was easily available at the usual $2 per bait and there were also Caballito at the same price. There were Sardinas up around Chileno Bay at $25 a scoop.FISHING: BILLFISH: There was a bit of Striped Marlin action almost every morning for boats the fished the area off of Los Arcos on the Pacific side, but it revolved around the tide change and did not last long on any one day. The lucky boats were getting two releases a day while most others were lucky to get a strike. The nice part of the billfish situation is that the Swordfish are starting to be seen on the surface on a fairly regular basis, and by that I mean regular when compared to normal! Probably one in 15 boats have sighted a Swordfish this week and one boat I know saw three different fish on Tuesday and managed to find one of them hungry, proceeding to catch a Swordfish in the 150-pound class after a fight of 90 minutes. YELLOWFIN TUNA: There are finally Tuna showing up on a regular basis even if they are football size fish. From a distance of 30 to 45 miles at between 150 and 240 degrees from the Arch there have been fish found every day. A few small groups have been found closer but they have not been biting well. On my Friday trip we went 31 miles at 230 degrees to find two separate pods of Dolphin. Both of them held fish with the first pod having fish averaging 20 pounds and the second pod averaging 10 pounds. A triple strike, then the fish in the first pod went down. At the second pod we were covered up with all five lines going off, then a double, then singles for a total of 16 Tuna at the end of the trip with the larges at 25 pounds. A friend of mine found fish at 170 degrees and 45 miles on Wednesday that averaged 25 pounds and picked 16 of them in about an hour before having to return to port
DORADO: The warm water on the Cortez side produced a few Dorado this week but other than one day, Tuesday when a pair of boats found a dead seal and loaded up on 15-pound fish, they have been scarce with just a few fish showing up.
WAHOO: I did hear of one nice Wahoo being caught this week about 35 miles to the south by a boat looking for Tuna. The fish was reported to weigh around 90 pounds. I am sure there were a few others caught, and on Wednesday we had one make a pass at one of our lures, but I had no other confirmed reports of them.INSHORE: The inshore fishing has remained good for Sierra and Yellowtail. Most of the Yellowtail have been caught by boats fishing swimming plugs for Sierra and these fish have been small, but boats willing to do the work and drift live baits deep off of the rocky points or use iron jigs to “yo-yo” have been getting a few nice fish of up to 30 pounds. The Grouper have started to bite a little better and there are still a few snapper being found in the rocks. NOTES: Things are starting to look up on the fishing front here in Cabo as we are starting to see some Tuna showing up and the inshore fishing remains good. Our fingers are crossed that things continue to remain on a positive track. My golf game is improving as well; I am now consistently getting under 100 strokes! This weeks report has been written to the music of the Gypsy Kings on the 1995 Nonsuch Records release “The Best Of The Gypsy Kings”.

FLY HOOKER SPORTFISHING
Captain George Landrumgmlandrum@hotmail.comwww.flyhooker.comCabo Fish ReportFeb 18-24, 2008 WEATHER: We had a few clouds in the sky this week, but not enough to call it cloudy, just enough to make things cool. Our daytime highs were in the low 80’s and the nighttime lows were in the high 50’s. Light winds on shore kept things nice and comfortable while at sea on the Pacific side things were a little bumpy as the winds were from the northwest and kicked up a light chop.WATER: The wind died down this week so surface conditions were much better on both the Pacific and the Cortez sides of the Cape. On the Pacific swells were 3-5 feet with a light chop while the Cortez had swells at 1-3 feet with almost no chop in the morning and offshore chop in the afternoons. Water temperatures on the Pacific side were warmer, almost averaging 68 degrees up to 10 miles offshore and out a bit farther it dropped to 67 degrees. The water close to shore, in the warmer area, was very green, almost brown in some areas. On the Cortez side of the Cape the water was 64-65 degrees out to 4 miles from the shore and farther than that, across the Gorda Bank and the 1150 spot the water warmed up to 69 degrees. There is a plume of cool, off-colored water running south from the Cape, but the water out 5 miles to the south side of the 1,000-fathom line warmed to 71 degrees. While the warm water was on both sides of the Cape, the only really blue water was on the Pacific side out past the San Jaime Bank.BAIT: Mackerel was easily available at the usual $2 per bait and there were also Caballito at the same price. There were Sardinas up around Chileno Bay at $25 a scoop.FISHING: BILLFISH: About the only thing I have to say for the past weeks bill fishing is that it was almost non-existent. Not that there weren’t people out trying, it’s just that the few fish that were found were not interested in eating. The full moon may have had something to do with it perhaps, it’s been know to have an effect, but it’s not really an explanation of why the fish have mostly disappeared. Perhaps the much cooler than normal water has something to do with it as well? One bright spot is that the green, cool water has brought about more sightings of Swordfish, but I have not heard of anyone actually hooking one up in a legal sort of way, but a few guys did hook fish by snagging them, then proceeded to loose them after several hours of fighting time. These Swordfish have been seen in the cool water plume running directly south from the Cape. YELLOWFIN TUNA: No change this week from last week on the Tuna situation. There are still only football fish being found out there, and most of them have been between 18 to 30 miles to the south. Boats working westward past the banks were not doing well with only an occasional pod of porpoise showing, and few of them holding fish. Once again red hootchies were the best bet for these fish as most of the stomach contents were found to be red crab.
DORADO: I did not hear of any Dorado being caught this week, and saw no new yellow flags flying. I am sure there were a few, but no reports were heard by me.
WAHOO: Once again I didn’t hear of any Wahoo this week. The flags you see flying are for “Mexican Wahoo”, or better known as sierra.INSHORE: Just like last week, with the exception of more small Yellowtail being caught by guys pulling small swimming plugs for Sierra. Mexican Wahoo, also known as Sierra, have been the mainstay of the Panga fleet this week with most boats able to get at least a half-dozen or more. Yellowtail action dropped off again, it seems to be a “good one week, slow the next” type of fishery. Snapper fishing has again improved and there are a few more grouper being found by those targeting bottom fish. The usual smaller Roosterfish to 5 pounds, some small barracuda and Bonita have rounded out the catches inshore. NOTES: Well, the nice weather continued for this past week as we had hoped, but the fishing has been very “off”, compared to the usual activity we get this time of year. The best bet has been fishing inshore; a lot of trips have been saved by targeting Sierra after six hours of looking for Marlin and Tuna. Fishing inshore also gets you up close to the whales, and that is always a lot of fun. This weeks report was written to the music of Boz Scaggs on his 1994 Virgin Records release, “Some Changes”. Until next week, Tight Lines!

Cabo San Lucas - February 20th, 2008

RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Excellent
Feburary 20th 2008.
Hi Folks,
You could not ask for better weather. It’s absolutely beautiful. Warm sunny days outside temperatures around 80 degrees, with low winds.
Inshore fishing has been really great on most days. Plenty of action for the fly fisher.
We have been catching roosterfish, jacks, and sierra mackerel on the fly and light spinning gear.
For those that haven’t tried it, the inshore fishing in Cabo can be very exciting action. You just don’t know what you are going to cast to next, one time it’s a bunch of roosterfish chasing your fly, the next cast, you are casting to a school of sierra mackerel. Add a few jacks, and it’s perfect.
Our Sierra Mackerel are a great sportsfish. They take the fly readily, with blazing runs into your backing. The Sierra’s in Cabo aren’t the smaller sierras you see in other parts of Baja. These fish run anywhere from 5 lbs to 14lbs. Be sure to use wire leader, as they have a set of choppers that can bite right though the heaviest of mono. Also, be careful taking the fly out of his mouth, long-nose pliers are recommended.
The roosterfish are abundant on most days, but pick a low pressure and it’s hard to catch them. They like sunny days. The fish are generally under 15lbs, but we have caught a few lately over 30 lbs.
The jacks are back, and there are some nice ones. The fish have stopped their mating daisy chain thing and have gone back to chasing bait on the beach. These guys are brutes and can put up a real fight.
Our offshore fishing is very slow right now. The best bet is marlin, but they are spread out all over the place. The Dorado and YFT fishing is just that, fishing, not too much catching. The water temperatures are around 70 degrees.
Pictured is my wife Gisel with a nice Sierra mackerel on the fly.

FLY HOOKER SPORTFISHING
Captain George Landrumgmlandrum@hotmail.comwww.flyhooker.comCabo Fish ReportFeb 11-17, 2008 WEATHER: We had partly cloudy skies early in the week, then things cleared up at the weekend and it was bright and sunny. We also had quite a bit of wind from the northwest up until the weekend; it then died down here in town. There was no rain associated with the early week cloudy conditions.WATER: Surface conditions on the Pacific side of the Cape were rougher than they had been last week due to the continuing wind. Choppy seas, running at 4-6 feet with 12-15 knots on top made for unstable footing and a lot of spray and pounding while running to and from the banks. On the Sea of Cortez the surface conditions were much better, but there were few boats fishing the area due to green, cold water. With the surface temperatures at 67-69 degrees all the way up to Punta Gorda, and down to 64 degrees north of there, the fishing was not very good. On the Pacific side things were warmer and the water a bit clearer, but the cool water seems to be working its way toward us there as well. There remains a plume of warm 71 degree water running from across the Golden Gate bank to three miles outside the lighthouse as well as an area on the western edge of the San Jaime bank that is as warm, but the warm water seems to be receding southward.BAIT: Mackerel was easily available at the usual $2 per bait and there were also Caballito at the same price. There were Sardinas up around Chileno Bay at $25 a scoop.FISHING: BILLFISH: Striped Marlin have continued to remain scarce with the only concentration found atop the Golden Gate Bank, and there were not many of them willing to eat. Most boats fished the bank with slow drifted live Mackerel caught on the site and felt they were doing well with a couple of Marlin bites and possibly one or two releases. Boats using smaller diameter floura-carbon leader with circle hooks were having better luck than others with most of them able to get up to a half-dozen bites a day for up to that many releases. Running to feeding Marlin, marked by the diving birds, was not as productive as the fish did not stay up long. On Saturday and Sunday there were up to 60 boats working the bank with most of them only getting one or two bites, and almost all of them having sick anglers on board due to the surface conditions. YELLOWFIN TUNA: There are still only football fish being found out there, and most of them have been between 18 to 30 miles to the south. Boats working westward past the banks were not doing well with only an occasional pod of porpoise showing, and few of them holding fish. Once again red hootchies were the best bet for these fish as most of the stomach contents were found to be red crab.
DORADO: I did not see any Dorado myself, but I did overhear one conversation concerning a decent catch made by a boat that found a piece of wood in the water 30 miles to the south, and they were apparently able to pick off 5 fish between 15-20 pounds.
WAHOO: Once again I didn’t hear of any Wahoo this week. The flags you see flying are for “Mexican Wahoo”, or better known as sierra.INSHORE: Mexican Wahoo, also known as Sierra, have been the mainstay of the Panga fleet this week with most boats able to get at least a half-dozen or more. Yellowtail action dropped off again, it seems to be a “good one week, slow the next” type of fishery. Snapper fishing has again improved and there are a few more grouper being found by those targeting bottom fish. The usual smaller Roosterfish to 5 pounds, some small barracuda and Bonita have rounded out the catches inshore. NOTES: Still lots of whales out there, everyone is seeing them during the fishing charters. There are also quite a few small Mako Sharks being caught at the Golden Gate Bank, but I have not heard of any large ones. This weeks report was written to the music of “Mighty Lester” on their 2006 release “We are Mighty Lester”, released by themselves, some really swinging blues! Until next week, keep your fingers crossed that the fishing picks up and the nice weather continues! Tight Lines!

FLY HOOKER SPORTFISHING
Captain George Landrumgmlandrum@hotmail.comwww.flyhooker.comCabo Fish ReportFeb 4-10, 2008 WEATHER: It felt like winter this week even though it never got below 56 degrees. Maybe it’s just that I am used to the warm weather now. Our lows, alt least the lowest I saw, was 58 degrees, but with a bit of wind on it, it felt colder. Our daytime highs were in the high 70’s and most of the week we had partly cloudy skies most of the week. On the 9th the skies actually cleared enough for the sea-surface temp charts to come through on the Terrafin web site.WATER: I did not see anything warmer than 70 degrees this week, and most of that was a plume coming up from the south and running from 20 miles due south to the southern end of the San Jaime Bank. Inside that band it dropped to 67 and 67 degrees. On the Cortez side of the Cape it was a consistent 68 degrees until you got past the Punta Gorda area, and then it dropped to a very cool 63 and 64 degrees. The surface conditions were great with small swells from the Northwest on the Pacific side and almost pool-table smoothness on the Cortez at the end of the week.BAIT: Mackerel was easily available at the usual $2 per bait and there were also Caballito at the same price. There were Sardinas up around Chileno Bay at $25 a scoop.FISHING: BILLFISH: Boats looking for Marlin were really having to scratch for them this week, and I mean that they were difficult to get to bite, not that they were hard to find. Some boats working deep bait on the Golden Gate Bank had luck, but it was not steady by any means. There were also some hungry fish found close to shore, within two miles, along the points on the Pacific side. Boats venturing farther offshore were seeing quite a few fish in small groups of two or three at a time, but they had lockjaw and most refused to bite. As an example, a large private yacht that has placed in quite a few tournaments spent 12 hours late in the week fishing for marlin, from 6 am until 6 pm and were only able to find two hungry fish, and that was a double hook-up. YELLOWFIN TUNA The porpoise are starting to show up in fair numbers but not all the pods have Yellowfin with them. Fishing south of the San Jaime and west of there boats are finding pods of between 20 and several thousand porpoise. There have been Tuna of between 15 and 30 pounds caught among the mammals, but I did not hear of any large ones yet, and a good day so far has been getting eight or ten of these fish to bite. Most boats are having a hard time getting hooked up to them though as they have been feeding fairly heavily on red crab, according to the guys who have opened up the ones they catch. As a result, the small hootchies in red colors have worked best on these smaller Tuna.
DORADO: A few fish now and then, no steady action but the fish that have been taken have been from the warmer water areas.
WAHOO: I didn’t hear of any Wahoo this week. The flags you see flying are for “Mexican wahoo”, or better known as sierra.INSHORE: Mexican Wahoo, also known as Sierra, have been the mainstay of the Panga fleet this week with most boats able to get at least a half-dozen or more. Yellowtail action is picking up once again with several fish to 40 pounds being boats as well as a few nice grouper to 50 pounds. The usual smaller Roosterfish to 5 pounds, some small barracuda and Bonita have rounded out the catches inshore. NOTES: Whales, whales, whales and porpoise, there have been plenty of these out there for anglers that get bored of not catching fish this week. Well, for some of them at least! I am taking off for L.A. to re-new my Captains License and will be coming back in the middle of the week, maybe fishing will have gotten better by then! Until next week, tight lines!

Captain George Landrumgmlandrum@hotmail.comwww.flyhooker.comCabo Fish ReportJan. 29-Feb 4, 2008 WEATHER: We finally had a couple of days where the sun actually shined all day long. The middle of the week was special, no clouds and it warmed up a bit. Our morning lows have been around the low 60’s to high 50’s, colder when there were no clouds. The highs for the days have been between the low and high 70’s with one day where it reached 82 degrees here at the house. Cloudy early in the week and at the end of the week.WATER: Surface conditions on both sides of the Cape were good this week with slight swells and only light winds. On the Pacific side the water temperatures were in the 70-71 degree range with a light tinge of green to them while on the Cortez side the water was about a degree or two warmer and clearer. Due south at a distance of 20 miles the water warmed up to 74 degrees and became blue.BAIT: Mackerel was easily available at the usual $2 per bait and there were also Caballito at the same price. There were Sardinas up around Chileno Bay at $25 a scoop.FISHING: BILLFISH: The Striped Marlin bite remained slow, the concentrations of fish have moved and no one has been able to find them yet. Well, except for one day early in the week when only 10 boats were at the Golden Gate Bank and the Marlin re-appeared for the day. The action was pretty good on Monday and the top boats released double-digit numbers. That shut right back down though, as on Tuesday almost 40 boats worked the bank and there were only about ten fish released. Most boats have been happy to release one or two Marlin per trip and a few lucky (or good) ones have been in the 3 or 4 release range. The bite has been on a mix of live bait and lures with many of the live bait fish coming on deep dropped baits or slow trolled live baits on the Golden Gate Bank. YELLOWFIN TUNA Well, for most of the boats out there a few football Tuna are all that they have been able to get onto, but every once in a while a larger fish in the 30 –pound range is hooked up. These fish are almost all with Porpoise and there are not many of them found right now. I sure hope things change soon as Tuna are one of our staples this time of year. The area due south to 35 miles has been the best producing, but the action has started to swing into the Sea of Cortez direction, perhaps following the warmer water movement.
DORADO: A few fish now and then, no steady action but the fish that have been taken have been from the warmer water areas.
WAHOO: I have heard of a few boats getting Wahoo in the warm water to the south, but there has been no numbers, just a fish now and then in the 40-pound class.INSHORE: Sierra, small Roosterfish, Ladyfish, Snapper and some Bonita have been the inshore production this week. The Sierra bite has been on and off on the Pacific side but the best results have been while using Sardinas as bait. Snapper are being found in the rocks, I mean right up in there, and a lot of them are being lost due to that fact. NOTES: There are more whales showing up, I had a good time watching them while sitting in the Cost-Co parking lot waiting for my wife yesterday! The Humboldt Squid are still around feeding on the red crabs and Swordfish are still being sighted, but I didn’t hear of anyone catching on this week. Until next week, Tight Lines!

Cabo San Lucas - January 31st, 2008

RECORDED:

FISHING: Great
Hi Folks,
Cabo is just great right now! The weather is beautiful, with sunny skies, light seas with low winds. Add, the good fishing, your feet in the sand, sun on your face, a cold Pacifico beer, some ceviche and it’s truly Paradise.
The skies are sunny and the air temperature has been in the mid 70s. The water temperatures are around 70 degrees.
The inshore fishing has been good for Sierra Mackerel, Jacks, and Smaller Roosterfish.
The Sierra Mackerel are great fun, slashing and pouncing on flies and top water plugs. These fish fight really well, with long, fast and strong runs. Sierras are one of my favorite fish to catch. Watch out for the teeth though, sharp as razors. They are also the best fish in the world for making ceviche.
The smaller roosterfish are up and down the coast, and they are a fun aggressive fish to catch. Expect them to refuse some of your flies, as they can be very selective. Most fish are running under 10 lbs, but there are a few in the 15 lb. range. They like sunny days and don’t move around much on cloudy days.
The offshore fishing continues to be good. We are catching mostly striped marlin. There are still quite a few marlin located up at the golden gate banks, but a good part of the school has moved closer to Cabo and they are spread out anywhere from a mile off of Cabo to 15 miles off of the old Light House. Bait is still the best bet, but we are still catching them on the fly. Just ask Don Lange (photo below) from Seattle Washington. Don was fishing with our Capt. Arturo on our Glacier Bay Catamarans the ”Flying fish 4” when he hooked up, landed and released this nice striped marlin on the fly. Don was using a Tibor Pacifica and a G. Loomis 13wt fly rod, with one of our Blue and Pink Offshore fly poppers.
Some dorado still around, but not too many. We are catching them as a by-catch while we marlin fish. YF Tuna are scarce right now, hopefully we will see more move into our area this month.
Tight Lines,
Grant Hartman
