CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT FOR MARCH 24-30, 2003
WEATHER: Almost feels like summer is here this week as our daytime and nighttime
temperatures are a bit warmer than the last two weeks. Our daytime highs were getting into the
mid 90’s and nighttime lows down to the high 60’s and low 70’s. It would cool down a few
evenings when the wind switched and blew from the southwest but all in all it was a warm week.
A few cloudy days but not much wind this week and no rain, of course. (Surfin’ U.S.A.)
WATER: We still have a plume of cool water (65-67) running down the Pacific coast out to a
distance of about 12 miles and on the Sea of Cortez side of the Cape the water is beginning to
warm up , right now it is in the 71-72 range. The Pacific side is still staying in the 67-69 range
but is warming up a bit as well. Surface conditions have been good this week with a light chop on
top of 3-4 foot swells. (Surfer Girl)
BAIT: Most of the bait I have seen this week was Caballito but there were a few Mackerel
mixed in there. They have been the normal $2 per bait and I am not sure if there have been any
Sardinas here in Cabo or not. (Be True To Your School)
FISHING:
BILLFISH: The Striped Marlin are starting to show up again and a few boats were flying two
flags when they returned. Most of the fish have been found on the Sea of Cortez around and
outside of the Gorda Banks but they have been seen jumping and a few have been hooked up as
far south as Cabo. As the water warms we should start to see even more show up. Dark colored
lures (green/black, black/red, purple/blue) have been working as has live bait dropped back or
tossed to tailing fish. I(I Get Around)
YELLOWFIN TUNA: The fish of the week for almost all of the boats! The Tuna have been
located around 25-40 miles offshore and that has made it a bit of a run for a lot of the boats, but
they are nice school fish with most of them in the 40-60 pound class. They have been mixed with
the Dolphin and the first few boats to the fish have had great luck (as usual). Lures that were
working for the Marlin have been hot for the Tuna as well and have outproduced the feathers on
this size of fish. The fish have been scattered everywhere from outside Gorda Banks to north of
the San Jaime Banks. Those have been the concentrations, but there have been a few nice 60-80
pound fish caught just off the arch by boats targeting Yellowtail! What a surprise for them! (Fun,
Fun, Fun)
DORADO: The numbers are about the same as last week with most boats getting at least one
Dorado hook-up, and they have been nice size fish with a lot of them in the 30-40 pound class.
Bleeding Mackerel and other bright colored lures were working well on them, as well as slow
trolling live bait in an area where fish were spotted. Most of the Dorado were found either
around the Tuna or very close inshore. (Barbara Ann)
WAHOO: Again, a few Wahoo were caught and many more were hooked up and lost but there
was no wide open bite on the fish. Most of the fish were blind strikes while searching for other
species. (Wouldn’t It Be Nice)
INSHORE: The Sierra bite has been good this week with a lot of the boats getting fish in the 5-8
pound class. Anything with a good dose of orange in it has been a hot item and getting a lot of
strikes. Yellowtail to 15 pounds on live bait and iron off of the Arch and Grey Rock in water up
to 200 feet in depth provided anglers who had strong arms a bit of action in the middle of the
week, as did the occasional Yellowfin Tuna. Bottom fishing for Snapper and Grouper resulted in
a few nice fish in the 8-15 pound class. There are still some nice Dorado to be found close in and
best results have been obtained by slow trolling live bait. I have not seen any Roosterfish this
week but I am sure they have been caught, and as the water warms up and the Mullet start to
school they will start to bite. (Good Vibrations)
NOTES: The fish were offshore this week and that resulted in quite a run for most of the boats.
There were plenty of things to see out there as there are still Whales coming through and lots of
Dolphin, Porpoise and Seals. The town has been full of Spring Breakers and there has been a film
crew running around filming “Spring Breaker” and word is that this is the same bunch that filmed
the movie “Jackass”. There is supposed to be another movie to be filmed here in the next few
months and it is based on the “Iliad”, will be called “Troy”, will star Brad Pitt and will spend close
to $15 million here in Cabo. The town needs this income as things are slow right now. The kids
don’t have a lot of money to spend and charters have been slow. We are all hoping things pick up
soon! This weeks report was written to the sounds of the 1990 Capitol-EMI release “The Beach
Boys All-Time Greatest Hits” Until next week, tight lines!
