Tip&Trick Description 1:
Albright Knot
The albright knot is most commonly used for joining lines of different diameter, for creating shook leaders and when Bimini Twist is tied in the end of lighter casting line. It is also used to connect monofilament to wire.
1.Create a loop in the tag end of the heavier line, then feed the tag end of the lighter line through it.
2. Bring the tag end up and over the loop to make your first turn.
3. Make a series of turns around all three stands, keeping it as tight as possible.
4. make a minimum of 10 turns, bringing the tag end out of the end of the heavier line's loop.
5. To tighten the knot, pull the standing part of the heavier line. At the same time, slide the turns toward the loop end.
6. When turns are in a neat position, pull both standing parts to make the knot tight. Trim ends.

Report Description:
Gordo Banks Pangas
San Jose del Cabo
February 21, 2010
Anglers –
There seemed to be an increase of visitors traveling to the Los Cabos area this past
week, most likely people are seeking out warmer wintertime weather conditions, as
harsh temperatures continue to sweep across much of the United States. February is
one of the more unpredictable and cooler months in Southern Baja, water temperatures
typically are on a cooling trend, there are exceptionally strong currents, varying
wind patterns contribute to off colored currents moving in and this can change
clarity from day to day . At this time the water temperatures are above normal,
ranging from 73 to 75 degrees throughout most of the region, with an area of 78
degree water hanging 18 to 20 miles offshore of Cabo San Lucas. Last week there were
several days of gusty winds, predominately from the north, but also turning around
and blowing from the south. This turned over the inshore waters, where blue water
had been found as close to one mile from shore, now the color
in the same areas is greenish and this usually means that pelagic species such as
wahoo, dorado, striped marlin and yellowfin tuna become scattered and
uncooperative.
Anglers found much different fishing action this week due to the change in
conditions, wahoo, dorado, tuna and marlin were either very scarce or nonexistent.
Most of the dorado found were actually very close to shore, this is where there were
more baitfish schooling to attract the migrating dorado, as well as sierra and
smaller sized roosterfish. Sierra action is normally a sure bet during the winter
months along local beaches, so far this season has been an up and down situation,
some days there were big numbers to report, while on other days anglers were lucky
to find one or two fish. Hard to pinpoint what the reason for this is, though there
were reports of gill net activity happening along the remote and unpatrolled East
Cape region and this is never a good thing.
While surface action slowed and came to a standstill, the good news was that bottom
action started to show favorable signs of improving. The San Luis Bank was where
local panga fleets were concentrating their efforts, working with yo-yo jigs in
depths ranging from 120 to 180 feet, they were finding a mix of quality sized
amberjack up to 70 pounds, grouper, snapper, pargo, cabrilla, bonito and even a few
yellowfin tuna that were holding in deeper waters. Many charters were accounting for
a dozen fish in combination, but there was the factor of the breeze picking up early
and creating too fast of drift conditions.
We expect that the coming month will provide more consistent action for bottom
species, in addition there will be the option of trolling close to shore for sierra,
roosterfish and jacks. As conditions offshore stabilize, there should be improved
reports for striped marlin. It will also be the time when yellowfin tuna can be
encountered offshore schooling with fast traveling porpoise. So many options will be
available and prospects of the rapidly approaching spring season and the return of
more consistent surface action is just around the corner.
The combined panga fleet launching from La Playita/Puerto Los Cabos sent out
approximately 77 charters for the week, with anglers reporting a fish count of: 3
striped marlin, 1 sailfish, 6 hammerhead shark, 3mako shark, 39 dorado, 13 yellowfin
tuna,134 Mexican bonito, 192 sierra, 13 roosterfish, 3 pompano, 38 pargo, 31
amberjack, 23 cabrilla, 2 yellowtail and 28 triggerfish.
Good fishing, Eric
