MEXICAN MINUTE LA PAZ VIDEO FISHING REPORT
THE BIG PICTURE and the REST of the STORY…
Overall, things are starting to look up after a long windy winter!
We’re not out’ve it yet, but you can feel things are starting to come around. Sometimes you never know. About this time it normally starts to feel like spring, but last year it seemed to stay chilly and cold well into the summer months.
However, this looks like a more normal year. The windy days are less windy although there are days when it’s still blowing 10-20 knots. But those days are fewer and there are more fishable days and those days seem more pleasant as well with flatter warmer seas and pretty decent action.
The fish are there! They’ve been there all off-season. The issue is whether the winds and rough seas would let us get to them. Still not that many folks even interested in fishing that are visiting town, but, reservations are rolling in and lots of folks are ready to get going.
The variety of fish is pretty good. We call this transitional time because we have both warm and cold water fish in the area which means there’s alot of variety that could be. caught this time of year.
Around Espirito Santo Island and Cerralvo, the yellowtail are running 15-25 pound on average and are eating live mackerel and sardines as well as trolled and cast jigs like yo-yo and knife jigs.
In the warmer waters, more dorado are starting to show here and there and commercial fishermen tell me there’s some jags of tuna moving in some areas.
Inshore, there’s great variety with sierra, jack crevalle, smaller roosterfish, amberjack, rainbow runners, pargo, cabrilla snapper and bonito.
Daytime temps are mostly sunny and in the lower to mid-80’s now, but nighttime temps and morning temps still warrant a sweatshirt dropping down to the mid-50’s.
Lots of reservations coming in and dates are filling so don’t wait. We don’t want to miss you! Write me directly: tailhunterfishinglapaz@gmail.com
