Feb 15, 2009; 04:24PM - Make 'Em Last : Save A Grub
|
|
Category: Fishing tips and tricks
|
|
Author Name: Nathan
|
|
Tip&Trick Description 1:
Make your grubs, curly tails, dingers, etc last by sliding the grub past the eye of the hook and then stick a toothpick/shaved wood into the eye and cut the ends. This prevents throwing the grub off even after a few hits. Also play with the cutting to change a lure's action. |

Feb 14, 2003; 10:13PM - Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Sportfishing report 2-7-03 to 2-14/-03

The first signs of a colder current appeared this week which pushed the SAILFISH a bit farther out and slowed the bite down from its wide open levels a week ago. Most boat still averaged 2 - 3 Shots per day on SAILFISH with a few scattered DORADO as well.
Our fleet landed a total of 74 SAILFISH, 2 BLUE MARLIN, 12 DORADOS, 2 YELLOWFIN TUNA in 42 offshore charter days. Leading the pack were the La Bamba with London Anglers Fred Smith and Jon Peterssen along with French angler Mr. Tesnier. In 7 days of fishing the group landed 14 SAILFISH and 4 DORADOS. Equaling that performance was angler Laura Jansen on the Vamonos I landing 14 SAILFISH and 1 DORADO in 4 days of fishing Bob Koranek landed 14 SAILFISH and 2 DORADOS in five days of fishing aboard the Vamonos II and Yellowfin II. Mr. Koronek turned in the single best day landing 6 SAILFISH aboard the Vamonos II, Followed by London angler Tim Hoare on the Secuestro with 5 SAILFISH. The Largest Dorado of the week was taken aboard the super panga Leydy with French angler Mr. L Lorieux. That Dorado scaled in at just over 60 lbs. Captain Miguel Alvarez with Angler Mr. Degraw accounted for both BLUE MARLIN one estimated at 300 lbs. and the other one at 400 lbs. Mr. Degraw also landed 4 SAILFISH in 3 days of fishing. Inshore has showed signs of life but results are still inconsistent. Captain Adolopho Espinosa on the Dos Hermanos had a 6 ROOSTERFISH day with one fish going over the 60 lb mark. The next days were slow and the fish were unwilling to bite. Several Big Jacks were also taken. The upcoming months should be prime time for Big Marlin and Yellowfin Tuna. Excellent dates and boats are still available.
Sea Conditions: Calm
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Climate: Perfect with temps in the high 80's
