Anglers –
July 7, 2019
This week the season’s first major
hurricane developed and passed off to
the west of the Baja Peninsulas, this
system, Hurricane Barbara reached
close to category five strength,
luckily for everyone this storm
followed a
path far enough offshore to not cause
any impact with land. We did feel an
increase in humidity and ocean swells
increased noticeably. Another
significant weather factor was the
strong south winds that picked up early
in week, once again pushing in cooler
greenish currents, dropping water
temperatures into the 68 degree range.
Now the winds have resided, but the
damage has been done and we now have to
patiently wait for conditions to
rebound, which presently is a day to
day process, now the water is starting
to look a bit cleaner and is up to the
72/73 degree range.
Anglers were using caballito, moonfish
mainly for bait, finding very tough
fishing conditions all around. Surface
action was extremely slim after
Monday. Anglers that did work hard off
of the bottom structure accounted
for a mix of red snapper, Mexican
bonito, cabrilla, triggerfish and
amberjack, though this action was not
consistent and changed daily. A
handful of quality fish were taken, we
saw amberjack and roosterfish to
over 40 lb., also one nice grouper of
about 70 lb., though most charters
averaged just a handful of fish in
combination. Anglers were using various
baits, as well as yo-yo jigs for this
action off of the rocky high spots.
The action for tuna, dorado and
billfish came to standstill due to the
green cold water, though the week
started off with a few marlin being
found, one blue marlin of an estimated
250 lb. was released, and a
scattering of striped marlin were also
accounted for. We do expect for
conditions to rebound quickly and then
we anticipate much improved action.
Along the shoreline it was the
roosterfish and jack crevalle that were
dominated the action, though this bite
also became very difficult in the
turned over conditions.
*T*he combined sportfishing fleet
launching out of the panga area from
Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out an
estimated 53 charters for the week and
anglers reported an approximate fish
count of: 3 striped marlin, 1 blue
marlin, 1 dorado, 2 yellowfin tuna, 2
broomtail grouper, 8 leopard grouper,
1 gulf grouper, 125 Mexican bonito, 32
red snapper, 5 yellow snapper, 15
amberjack, 26 roosterfish, 22 jack
crevalle and 45 triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
