THE WITCH-DOCTOR
Mark Rayor owner of Jen Wren Sportfishing bringing
you an East Cape NON-fish report. The wind has
blown so hard this week it has not been fishable most
of the week.
I'm happy to say our timing was good and we were
able to use the last calm day to get Jen Wren III out of
the water. It is sad but our season is over and we
won't resume charter fishing until March.
I do want to share an experience we had while fishing
last week along with some pretty cool photos. One of
our last days out there slow trolling for marlin with
skipjack for bait we were not having any luck. I
decided to try putting out a Witch-Doctor teaser. It is
a rather large mirrored thing that rocks back and
forth while being trolled and reflects sun light. In the
right conditions it looks like a strobe going off in the
water behind the boat.
We were fishing with a group of about a half dozen
boats on the La Ribera high spot. After a short period
of time a pod of orcas cruised by. Apparently our
teaser caught one of the whales eyes and the pod
came a bit closer. Before we knew it the whole pod
was in our pattern nudging our baits and checking us
out. One whale even came up almost to our swim
step and gently pushed on the Witch-Doctor. If it
attracted the orcas this has to be an effective tool to
attract marlin as well.
Now that we are not charter fishing and have our
cruisers in dry dock for the winter I will still try to get
out on calm days. I can use one of our small tenders
and fish the shoreline for sierra and a little further off
shore when the weather allows. I'll do my best to try
and continue to post reports as to what fishing
conditions are like on the East Cape.
Yesterday the seas starting to calm and it looks like
we might get a break for a day or two before the wind
ramps up again. Sierra fishing was good up and
down the beach today for tin boaters and beach
fisherman.
