Author Name: John Szymanski

Tip&Trick Description 1:
Simple Stowage of StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever for more deck Space.
Most pole type lure retrievers are thick, bulky and rigid. StrikeBack is made of 1.5 metre fibreglass rods able to be connected together, each 8 or 10 mm in diameter, depending on the version.
Once you have your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever at the boat; loctite the first two sections and slide the retriever in the gunwale rail on many aluminium boats, or attach a length of conduit along the inside of the boat. Your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever is now stowed neatly as it has flexiblity to fit the contour of your the hull. Deck space is valuable, keep it clear. |

May 30, 2003; 11:33AM - Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Sportfishing Report 5/22/03 - 5/29/03
|

Category: Mexico Ixtapa Zihuatanejo

The offshore action continues to improve but a strange cold inshore current really slowed down the inshore action. Offshore Angler , David Padget led the offshore parade with a 10 SAILFISH day on May 22nd followed by a 6 SAILFISH and 1 YELLOWFIN tuna day on the 23rd. Mr. Padget was fishing aboard the Vamonos 3. Wisconsin angler, Greg Schmidt fishing aboard the La Bamba landed 3 SAILFISH and 7 YELLOWFIN TUNA in one day. Mr. Gregg Grossman also fishing aboard the LA Bamba landed 1 SAILFISH, and raising 11 others, as well as landing 2 YELLOWFIN TUNA in one day of fishing. Notable European sportfishing writer from Holland, Jacques Schouten fishing aboard the Dos Hermanos 1 landed 14 SAILFISH, 9 YELLOWFIN TUNA , one which scaled in over 300 Lbs, along with 35 YELLOWTAIL JACKS and 1 DORADO. Angler Mike Mccallister from the Cabela's Staff, fishing aboard the Dos Hermanos 2 with Captain Jose Diaz landed 2 SAILFISH on his first day of fishing. First time anglers and visitors to Ixtapa Zihuatanejo from North Dakota, Dave and Anne Raatz fishing aboard the Secuestro De Amor landed their first SAILFISH along with a nice YELLOWFIN TUNA and a handful of Bonitos in a ½ day of fishing. French anglers Zoubowski and Cabaut while targeting the elusive ROOSTERFISH changed plans for a day and landed an estimated 220 lb YELLOWFIN TUNA and a few SAILFISH while the ROOSTERFISH went into hybernation for the week. Mr. Zoubowski and Mr Cabaut were fishing aboard the Janeth with Captain Arturo. The blue water and schools of tuna remain just 3 miles out but the real surprise this spring has been the inshore water temperature and the absence of any ROOSTERFISH.
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo weather: Cooler than normal but seasonably beautiful!
Sea Conditions: Calm
Bait Supply: Excellent
Best Fishing Areas: 3 - 10 miles offshore
Sincerely,
Stan Lushinsky
