| Not all fishes lay eggs. |
| Fishes like split fins, surf-perches, and some sharks instead carry and give birth to live young. Scientists have also discovered that the embryos of some of these fishes actually consume each other in the womb. How’s that for creepy fish facts? |

Tip&Trick Description 1:
The Castaway
One day this guy, who has been stranded on a desert island all alone for ten years, sees an unusual
speck on the horizon. 'It's certainly not a ship, 'he thinks to himself. As the speck gets closer and closer,
he begins to rule out the possibilities of a small boat, then even a raft.
Suddenly, emerging from the surf comes this drop-dead gorgeous blonde woman wearing a wet suit and
scuba gear. She approaches the stunned guy and says to him, 'Tell me, how long has it been since
you've had a cigarette?' 'Ten years' replies the stunned man. With that, she reaches over and unzips a
waterproof pocket on her left sleeve and pulls out a pack of fresh cigarettes. He takes one, lights it and
takes a long drag and says, 'Man oh man! Is that ever good!'
And how long has it been since you've had a sip of bourbon?' she asks him.
Trembling, the castaway replies: 'Ten years!' She reaches over, unzips her waterproof pocket on her
right sleeve pulls out a flask and hands it to him. He opens the flask, takes a long swig and says, 'Wow,
that's absolutely fantastic!'
At this point, she starts slowly unzipping the long zipper that runs own the front of her wet suit, looks at
him seductively and asks, 'And how long has it been since you've played around?' With tears in his eyes
the guy falls to his knees and says. 'Oh sweet Jesus! Don't tell me you've got golf clubs in there too! |

Cabo Fish Report
Nov. 27-Dec. 03, 2006
WEATHER: We had very nice weather this past week with our daytime highs hitting the mid 80’s and our lows at night in the low 60’s. At the end of the week we were mostly cloudy but with no rain. Early in the week we were expecting a couple of days of very strong winds, but it appeared that a push from the south kept the northerly winds (20-30 knots) away from us, all we got was one day of perhaps 20 knot winds from the north.
WATER: There is not much to say about the water conditions, there are no strong temperature breaks or color breaks within our area. The surface temperature has remained an almost constant 80-81 degrees within 40 miles of Cabo. We did have some fairly choppy conditions during the middle of the week when northerly gusts blew in for the day, but other than that things have been just great out there.
BAIT: A fairly even mix of Mackerel and Caballito were available at the normal $2 per bait. I did not hear of any Sardinas in the area.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Just about the only billfish I heard of this week were Striped Marlin and a couple of Sailfish, I am not sure if there are still any Blue Marlin in the area as the water is getting colder every week. The Striped Marlin have been spread out. While there are still many of the fleet boats working the Golden Gate Bank hard with drifting live bait, the bite has not made it worthwhile for many boats. In an effort to find more fish they have been searching off of the ledges on the Pacific side just off the beach and have come up with a few fish on the drift and on the troll. A few boats have gone up the Sea of Cortez around Punta Gorda and have done fairly well and there was a halfway decent bite for two days off of the Red Hill area. Most of the fish have been small Striped Marlin; just as last weeks fish were fairly small, I mean that the average has been less than #100. I have heard that boats working the area outside of Magdalena Bay (far out of reach for a 1 day trip) have been doing exceptionally well on the Stripers, we can only hope that just as happened last year, these fish make it down to our area. Perhaps as the water cools down and the bait supply starts concentrating in our area things will pick up.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: Yellowfin Tuna were hard to find this week, a few fish were found up on the Sea of Cortez and a few were found to the north of the Golden Gate and around the Finger Bank, but the fish we were finding on the south side of the San Jaime have moved on. Boats have been going to the south as far as 40 miles without any luck this week.
DORADO: There is no doubt that Dorado are still the fish of the week, and they may end up being the fish of the month if the Yellowfin Tuna and Marlin don’t start biting. There are still fair numbers of fish being found on the Pacific side of the Cape from inside the Golden Gate Bank to the Finger Bank, and there have been a few boats reporting great action a bit farther north. That is out of range for most of us but it is nice to know that those fish should eventually move south toward us. The Dorado have mostly been fairly good-sized fish with an average of 18-20 pounds.
WAHOO: Wahoo fishing improved this week with quite a few of fish between 45-60 pounds being caught. There were no large concentrations of them, but the ones that were caught were found in areas that typically hold these speed demons. Water between 250 and 350 feet in depth just off of the major points and on the banks gave up fish. Dark colored lures trolled between 8 and 10 knots brought savage strikes and a few boats that targeted Wahoo caught fish, but at that speed, not much else!
INSHORE: Inshore fishing is still slow with most of the Pangas trying for Dorado. A few bottom fish have been caught as well as a scattering of Sierra and early season Yellowtail off of the rocky points, but there just has not been any consistent inshore action. Red Snapper in 250 feet of water has been the basic fish close to the beach, but there had been a couple of days with decent Pompano action just off the beach’s on the Pacific side, noting large but at least good eating fish!
NOTES: The weather is perfect, I wish the fishing was. It is not bad, but there are boats coming in with nothing to show for a full day on the water. Then again, there have been boats coming in from a day out that have been flying an honest three Marlin, three Tuna and two Dorado flags almost every day. Once in a while things just break your way! I hope it does for you next time you visit us! Until then, Tight Lines!
