ACCURATE/HALCO LURES LIGHT UP THE EAST CAPE!

We were double teamed this month by team Accurate. Ben Secrest blew through Los Cabos attending the IGFA world championship. His stay was short but I was able to kidnap him for a days fishing on the Jen Wren. The bite on the outside had been tough so we deceided to spend the day inshore

We had consistent action all morning catching limits of pargo and cabrilla

In the afternoon we targeted roosterfish and in just over an hours time had released 5 nice ones

Later in the month Jack Nilsen came to town with a bag of new Halco lures I had not seen before. First cast with this Halco Twisty spoon produced a nice jack cravel.

The bite on the Halco's never slowed down. A marlin swam right through our pattern of marlin lures and ate a Halco GT Jig.

The bite was so good Jack had to take a moment for some nurishment. I promised not to tell his boys.

The marlin bite was very good for Team Accurate and we released several.

Casandra lands her first Wahoo and does it right.

It doesn't always go as planned. A nice yellowfin tuna got lucky on this one.

Byron and Evans!

Yesterday I took Byron and Evans out for a day of fishing. Evans is almost 7 and had been fishing before, but never fly fishing. Byron and I set out to gear up the day to be all about him. It was a blast! The sun was high and it was hot, but we had some active fish. Most of the fish Byron would hook up and then let Evans bring them to the boat.On a few occasions,he caught fish all on his own. His cast, his hook set and his retrieve! It was a cool experience to watch the father and son bond.

Here are some pics from May 31st

David Ko and friends from Lynnwood, WA caught four yellowfin tunas  between 12-35 lbs aboard "Valerie".

Rooster fish in Cabo

Characterized by its spectacular "rooster comb," is one of the world's most exotic fish species. Roosterfish identification is about as easy as it gets. No other fish looks anything like this true oddball.

The Roosterfish is a member of the Carangidae or Jack Family but it looks like no other jack.

They are widely distributed throughout all waters of Mexico, including all offshore islands. It is viewed as a prized game fish that can generate an adrenaline rush as it chases live bait on the surface. Once hooked it is one of the strongest hombres in the sea.

The Roosterfish is normally a “catch and release” species, as its food value is poor.

It has been reported to reach over four feet in length and up to 114 pounds (the current I.G.F.A. Roosterfish world record, with the fish caught in Mexican waters), and is found along the beach, predominately during warm seasons with water temperatures in excess of 80 degrees, and at depths of up to 100 feet.

The Roosterfish is a true visual phenomenon. It feeds on sardines and other small silvery fishes and travels in packs chasing food onto the shore.

It is usually caught with slowly trolled mullet, ladyfish, or sardines just outside the surf line, outwards from shore to about a quarter-mile. It has also been caught with good regularity from shore using Ranger Plugs and Klassen Poppers, and can also be caught by fly casting

We received a couple of pictures from our friend Butch Bustamante of his fishing trip from a couple of weeks ago.

They released three nice roosterfish aboard Andrea.

Z Fish Report (6/3/10)

         
      The deep blue 80° water is a short 6 miles off the beach and our late May / early June expectations are living up to their historical past. We have blue marlin, striped marlin, sailfish, and yellowfin tuna in the blue water. Most of the action is taking place between 12 and 14 miles.

          The roosterfish have not yet shown up this week in the numbers we had hoped for, as Jay Esbahn of Ixtapa found out. Using two of some of our best panga captains for the inshore, Cheva on the Dos Hermanos II and Arturo on the Janeth, the group of 4 worked the areas south from Valentine to the 26 mile mark at the antennas, encountering water too murky for the roosters. However, in the Valentine area they did find the big hard fighting jack crevalle. These fish, averaging between 20 and 25 pounds, wore them out.

           Santiago, on the super panga Gitana had a great week, fishing almost every day. Last Friday, his clients released 2 sailfish and 2 striped marlin, with Saturday’s clients releasing 2 sailfish. All were taken on conventional gear.

           The next few days, fly fishing with Torgeir Hansson of San Francisco and Inge Solberg of Houston, they got into some great fly rod action. For the last 3 days they caught 3 yellowfin tuna from 26-29 pounds, and several other football sized yellowfin from 6-10 pounds. Tor also released an estimated 60 pound sailfish, and Inge lost a nice blue marlin.

          Adolfo, on the panga Dos Hermanos I, reported he was fishing north today. With the water a bit cleaner than down south, however he had not yet found very many roosters either. With the 80° water on the beach, Adolfo is very confident it should happen any day now. He also fished offshore with conventional gear yesterday, releasing 3 sailfish for his clients.
