[size 2]With Tropical Storm ILEANA meandering its way below us, we experienced some rain earlier in the week. But the rain didn’t seem to hamper the tuna bite below Los Frailies. As usual, the early bird got the action and as more boats arrived the bite slowed significantly. [/size]
[size 2]The billfish action slowed early in the week and then came roaring back as the storm headed out to the west. With a little luck an angler might be able to achieve a Trifecta of billfish including; striped, blue marlin and a sailfish.[/size]
[size 2]For those choosing to keep their feet dry, the beach action included ladyfish, pompano and enough shots at roosters and jacks near the hotels and between La Ribera and Punta Colorada to keep things interesting. [/size] Water temperature 74-89 Air temperature 77-91 Humidity 83% Wind: Calm Conditions: Scattered Clouds Visibility 15 miles Sunrise 6:59 a.m. MDT Sunset 7:41 p.m. MDT [center] [/center] [center][font "Tahoma"][#000080][/url]Magdalena Bay, Baja Mexico [/#000080][/font][/center] [size 2]The marlin have moved closer to the Entrada this week with some reported as close as eight miles on a 240� heading. Also mixed in were some dorado up to twenty pounds. Most of the tuna action seemed to be considerably farther offshore.
At the Entrada, there were a number of small black sea bass caught and released, nothing bigger that fifteen lbs.
Devils curve produced a few corvina, grouper and a couple of snook in the ten lb. class.
Up at Boca Santo Domingo the corvina and grouper dominated the catch later in the week. [/size]

[size 2]The fishing has picked up a bit over this last week. The 82� blue water is still just two miles off the beach, and the seas have calmed down after a couple of days of rain. But, the rain did push a lot of debris out of the rivers, making for some great current lines. [/size]
[size 2]Marcos, on the panga Oceana, had a one day catch of 3 sailfish and 5 large dorado. He was fishing the debris laden current lines 6 miles out, and in front of Ixtapa. [/size]
[size 2]The fleet is averaging two sailfish a day per boat. Plus, 40 to 100 pound yellowfin tuna have been located at 35 miles, on a 180� heading.[/size]
[size 2]Kyle Trynsky from Oregon, fished with Martin one day, just after the heavy rains, and even though they experienced rough seas, they raised three sailfish and caught one. Kyle then fished with Santiago on the panga Gitana for the roosters inshore. They caught 4 roosters and 6 large jack crevalle. [/size]
[size 2]Adolpho on the panga Dos Hermanos told me the hot rooster and jack fishing has not let up at all.[/size]
