I CALL IT THE 'MPS'
When the wind doesn't blow the marlin want to go.
I just spoke with a couple of fishermen who stayed at
the Los Barriles Hotel and fished a local charter boat
for the last three days. The first two days weather was
calm and they accounted for 2 striped marlin and 10
dorado. Their last day the wind hooped up and the
count was a goose egg.
This is typical for winter time fishing on the East
Cape. The bite can be good but is never consistent. I
believe all the ups and downs in weather is the
largest contributing factor. It has been the same deal
fishing for yellowtail. No doubt they are in the
neighborhood. One day a guy can go out and bag a
couple 30-35 pounders and the next day they are
gone. Two or three days later they bite again.
Personally I can't wait to get past February. Entering
March we are over the hump and the bite is much
more consistent. Warming water and more active bait,
turns sea life on. Turns me on also. In March the
marlin start to pile up in large schools and sometimes
yellowfin tuna make an early showing. Roosterfish
become active and the whole sea starts to wake up
from winter. It is also when sightings and the shot at
a swordfish are at their best. Talk about a turn on!
When I moved to the East Cape in 1991 GPS's were
not available and Loran's did not work in this area.
Navigating the Sea of Cortez was done with a
compass and a wrist watch. The local fishermen
would find their sweet spots and relate their location
to each other by using a triangulation method. Not
knowing the names of mountain peaks or different
beach areas, I installed a direction finder on my boat.
With that, I could at least tell which direction they
were broadcasting from. The direction finder never
did work very well but learning the Mexican method
has. Now folks will ask how did you find that other
boat or sweet spot without your GPS. My anwser is
the MPS ...
'Mexican Positioning System'.
Can't hardly wait for spring!
