[#000000]Cabo Fish Report[/#000000]
[#000000] June 4-10, 2012[/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]WEATHER: [/#000000][#000000]Asis typical this time of year, the weather has varied from day to daywith some mornings starting out in the high 70's and warming to thehigh 90's and the next morning the thermometer showing a cooler 65degrees. What has not changed is the skies, partly cloudy most ofthe week, really clearing up at the end of the week. We have alsohad quite high humidity some mornings, enough so that it tricklesdown the windshields of the cars and leaves clean trails in thedust.[/#000000][/#000000]
[#000000][#000000] WATER: [/#000000][#000000]It'sseasonal transition time. Every year from mid May through Junes,sometimes into July, we have strong currents combined with a few verywindy days that really move the water around. The last three weekshave been very typical as overnight the water can change 15 degreesand turn from blue to green, then red and almost brown, sometimes inmile wide bands and sometimes it seems the whole ocean changes. Thisweek, even though the water started to warm up from the last strongcurrent change, it became filled with chlorophyll and we have haddirty, off-color water most of the week. The only places it wasdecent were at the Cabrillo Bank early in the week and outside to thesouth 25-30 miles. Water temperatures at the end of the week on thePacific side ranged from 70 degrees at the San Jaime Bank to 65degrees at the Golden Gate Bank. The water was almost brown out to50 miles west. In the Sea of Cortez we were recording 75 degreewater inside the 1,000 fathom line and 65 degrees outside of theline. The water was off-color, very dirty green on the outside andalmost brown inside 5 miles.[/#000000][/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]BAIT: [/#000000][#000000]Caballitowere the bait most boats were able to get this week, and at thenormal $3 each. Some of the bait boats were carrying a few partiallyfrozen Ballyhoo as well, at the same price. The dirty water madenetting Sardinas almost impossible.[/#000000][/#000000]
[#000000] FISHING:[/#000000]
[#000000][#000000]BILLFISH[/#000000][#000000]: There have been a few Striped Marlin caught every day, but therehave been no real numbers posted by any of the boats. The water is aperfect temperature, but dirty enough that the bait is not holding sothe fish are not around. My guess is that maybe 30% of the boatsgoing out are spotting Striped Marlin, and 10% of them are getting afish to the boat for a release. Most of these fish have been foundto the north-east in the Sea of Cortez.[/#000000][/#000000]
YELLOWFIN TUNA: There were no Yellowfin reported by the boatsfishing out of Cabo, but I did hear of a few boats fishing out of SanJose who managed to get a fish here and a fish there among the blackPorpoise, but there was nothing consistent, even though the fishranged from 30 to 50 pounds.
[#000000]DORADO: What can I saw, things change weekto week. Last week some boats posted nice Dorado, and a few boatsfound more than one or two, but this week the dirty water chased mostof them away. There were a few caught, and they were nice fish foundoff-shore in the Sea of Cortez.[/#000000]
[#000000]WAHOO: No Hoo that I heard of this week. Probably the dirty water shut the bite off, it should be good as weare just coming off the full moon, which was on the 4[size 2]th.[/size][/#000000]
[#000000] INSHORE: At the beginning of the week theinshore action slowed up and it has not yet recovered to the levelswe had several weeks ago. Everyone is mentioning the dirty water asbeing the cause and it probably is. A good trip on a Panga this weekwould be a couple of Sierra, a couple of Yellowtail and maybe aSnapper or two. An average trip would have been half of that. Therewas a sporadic bite from Roosterfish early in the week, but that diedoff quickly. Most pangas are working the bottom with bait in hopesof getting a few nice Amberjack and Grouper, and if they get luckyscoring on a Yellowtail.[/#000000]
[#000000]FISH RECIPE: Check the blog for this weeksrecipe! [/#000000]
[#000000]NOTES: Sort of a repeat of last weeks notesto the effect that I am frustrated about the quality of fishing weare having this week. Things can change overnight though, and we areused to this happening at this time of year. On a positive note,even though it's not about fishing, the highway between San Jose andCabo is looking really nice, the government obviously intends topresent a grand image to all the visitors who will be attending theG20 this month. Along with the highway, our city is finally placingthe power lines downtown underground and removing the wooden powerpoles, I can only hope that the phone lines follow! Well, it'sSunday, so off to the beach in a little while, meanwhile I have beenlistening to the puppy snore at my feet! Until next week, tightlines![/#000000]
