Current events

Satellite weather on our Simrad NSS 12 displays surface temperature.  This shot shows how a cold current has pushed warm water our way.  Having latest info at our finger tips really helps us find the temperature breaks


It is amazing how fast conditions can change.  Last week the main body of schooling marlin were  some 40 miles to the south and we were running down and fishing with boats coming up from Cabo San Lucas.  Now a strong cold current has pushed the fish northward right into our front yard.

Right now it is not unusual to see 60, 80 or even a hundred marlin in a day jumping and tailing.  The problem is they are in spawn mode and not very interested in baits we are offering.  This happens every year where we go through a period that the bite is tough.  Good news is they will get hungry soon and the sheer volume of fish we are looking at gives assurance that when they decide to go we will have our hands full.  Also everyday a hand full of quality dorado and wahoo are being taken in the same area.

In shore the roosterfish bite has picked up a little but still far from full speed.  We have sighted some Bubba sized fish but live bait has been hard to come by which is key for real success fishing on the inside.




A few dorado are in the mix

Lots of tailers

Marlin surfing down swell are easy to spot

Not many biters

This crusty old guy didn't pay any attention to us.

Sardines are hard to come by.  We found a pangero selling them at Ceralvo Island one morning.
