Cabo Fish Report
Oct. 17-23, 2005
WEATHER: Sunny skies for most of the week were a welcome sight for most of our visitors as was the very comfortable daytime temperatures in the low to mid 90’s. Our nighttime lows were in the low 70. There was a slight breeze every morning that gradually picked up to a strong wind from the northwest by 2pm that kept the mid day comfortable, if a bit wet on the water!
WATER: The Sea of Cortez had comfortable conditions this week with swells from 1-3 feet for the most part, until you got over 20 miles off shore, then it kicked in a bit as the Pacific swells wrapped around and had a chance to show themselves. During the afternoons, coming home into the wind was choppy but not uncomfortable. The surface temperatures were 81-82 degrees with no temperature breaks. On the Pacific side things were a bit different as the swells maintained an average of four feet with the occasional 6 footer in there along with steady breezes in the morning and strong winds in the afternoons. There was a very strongly defined temperature break that has cool west side water in the 76-degree range and just a mile away warm 83-degree water. This break has been drifting slowly to the west every day and as of now is several miles to the west side of the San Jaime bank. The warm water along the edge is green but on the cool side it is a very nice blue.
BAIT: Once again we had plenty of bait with Caballito at the normal $2 each and Sardines available here in Cabo at $20 a bucket.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Once again the Marlin were scattered and the bite for the bigger Blue and Black Marlin seemed to slow down. There were still big fish out there, but not in great numbers. There were plenty of Striped Marlin however. At the end of the week there was a good concentration of stripers at the Golden Gate Bank as well as along the temperature break out past the San Jaime. The bite was a mix of live bait and lures. The Bisbee Offshore Tournament just completed had one qualifying fish weighed in each day. Day one had a 465 Blue and day two had a 588 pound Blue plus there were a lot of call-ins of released Stripers.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: The Tuna bite slowed down this week and almost the only action I heard of was either just in front of the Fiesta American or up at the Punta Gorda area and past. All the fish were footballs from 10 to 20 pounds and chumming with Sardines brought plenty of them to the surface. There were also lots of Bonita and Skipjack in the mix. Some Tuna were found on the Pacific side up around the San Jaime Banks and they were slow to bite, but they were quality fish in the 40-60 pound class.
DORADO: Most of the Dorado action this week came from the Pacific side and while there were a few fish in close to home, from the arch to the lighthouse, most of them were found much farther north, around the inside of the Golden Gate Bank. There were also scattered fish found along the warm side of the temperature break. Average sizes were 15-25 pounds with a few hitting 30 pounds. Bright colored lures worked well on them and it seemed that the “dorado” color was a favorite!
WAHOO: I saw very few Wahoo this week so have nothing to report on them.
INSHORE: Almost all the inshore Panga action was on the small Yellowfin, Bonita and Skipjack along the Sea of Cortez coast.
NOTES: Everyone is either fishing the Offshore Tournament or getting ready for the Black and Blue. I have been very busy with charters and getting set up for the Black and Blue and can tell you that the new $5,000 daily jackpot has really caused a buzz around here. This means that there is the distinct possibility that the daily jackpots may total over $1,000,000 per day! I’d better go and re-check those knots! Until next week, Tight lines!
