CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT FOR SEPTEMBER 23-29,
2002
WEATHER: We started the week a bit worried over
Tropical Depression Julio as it developed
to the south, worried that we might be having a
repeat of last years Hurricane Juliet, and on the
anniversary as well! Luckily for us it dissipated
by mid-week and the only effects we received
were cloudy skies on Friday, Saturday and Sunday as
well as a bit of wind on Friday. As a whole,
the week was great! The temperature averaged 87
degrees during the day, with highs around 97
and the nights were in the mid to high 70�s. No
rain here in the lowlands but it looked as if the
Sierras received a bit. (Ragtop Day)
WATER: Our water temperatures ranged from the low
80�s on the Pacific side to almost 90
degrees up to the north of San Jose on the Sea of
Cortez. The offshore waters were deep blue
and there were flying fish almost everywhere.
Northwest winds in the later part of the week
caused the conditions on the Pacific side to be a
bit rough and choppy but the Sea of Cortez
remained very comfortable, at least until you got
out about 25 miles, then it picked up. (When
The Coast Is Clear)
BAIT: The bait this week, if you could get any,
was Caballito or Mullet. There was not a lot of
them available and some of them were very small.
The price remained the same though, at the
normal $2 per bait. (Coconut Telegraph)
FISHING:
BILLFISH: The Sailfish are beginning to show up in
numbers as the water warms up. They have
been found in the same areas as the Dorado and are
striking the same type of baits and lures.
Blue Marlin have been scattered but most of them
are being found on the Sea of Cortez side of
the Cape. With the moon on the wane, more boats
are starting to rig live Skipjack as baits for
both the Blue Marlin and the Black Marlin. Striped
Marlin have been found everywhere but the
concentrations seem to be directly to the south of
the cape and along the Pacific side out to about
10 miles. A mix of both live bait and lures worked
for the fish that were caught, but as with the
Blues Marlin, the full moon on the 21st kept the
bite from going off really strong. Later in the
week it started to pick up. (Frank and Lola)
YELLOWFIN TUNA: There were not nearly as many Tuna
caught this week as last week but
there were still some nice ones found. For the
bigger fish, finding the Porpoise was the key, as
usual. Fish to 120 pounds were found south of
Chileano and there were small footballs scattered
around as well. Just because you found the
Porpoise did not mean you caught fish though, many
of the pods did not produce. Feathers in green,
black and blue as well as cedar plugs (don�t Tuna
fish without a few of these on board!) were top
producing colors and the size range the fish were
striking on ran from 6-10 inches. (Money Back
Guarantee)
DORADO: This weeks bright point! Almost any boat
that wanted to focus solely on Dorado was
able to limit out. Most of the fish were on the
Pacific side inside 10 miles and we are getting the
schooling fish now. There are a lot of schools of
very small fish, under 10 pounds. Most boats
are releasing all of these and keeping only the
larger fish. A mix of small feathers and small
baits
worked well and if you found a school of the mid-
range fish, in the 12-18 pound class, chunking
worked very well. (Stars On The Water)
WAHOO: A few nice fish were caught this week and a
few others were hooked and lost. The
action was spread out with reports of fish from all
the banks as well as the contour lines along the
coast, but there were no large concentrations
found. (I Have Found Me A Home)
INSHORE: Most Pangas are fishing for Dorado, as
they have been easy to find and close to
shore. An occasional Sailfish and Blue Marlin has
kept fishermen on their toes, as they never
know what to expect! (Brown Eyed Girl)
