Cabo Fish Report
May 29-June 4, 2006
WEATHER: The warm weather continued this week with our daytime highs in the mid to high 90’s while the nights were much cooler with temperatures in the mid to low 70’s. At least that was how it was before this weekend. The wind started to blow and it really cooled off, I had 62 degrees here at home early Monday morning. That’s not to say the nights were not warm, I have still been running the air-conditioner in the evenings (except for last night)! We had mostly sunny skies this week with a little haze out to sea on the Pacific side early on, but the wind kicked in from the WNW and the haze went away. Unfortunately, so did the nice conditions on the Pacific side. We had a few days in the middle of the week where the Pacific was calm, it allowed a window for a lot of the bigger boats to leave and go up to San Diego. After the wind came back, it was victory at sea once again.
WATER: There was not much change this week from last week as far as the water conditions go. The Cortez side of the Cape continued to be a lot warmer than the Pacific side with some of the hot areas reaching temperatures of 84 degrees. The water blues up a lot and on the Pacific side it remained cool with a lot of the areas still in the 60’s and green. There has been a decent break right out in front to 30 miles where there is both color and temperature change and most of the fleet has been working it hard. Unfortunately this is also where the rough water from the Pacific side are meeting the calmer, warmer waters from the Cortez side, and there have been quite a few boats returning early from this area.
BAIT: The usual Mackerel at $2 per bait and there were some Mullet and Caballito as well at the same price. I saw some decent Sardinas at $25 per scoop.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Striped Marlin continued to be the billfish of the week but there have been a few Black and Blues caught as well, undoubtedly due to the warming water on the Cortez side of the Cape. The majority of the Striped Marlin have seemed to be along the 74-75 degree temperature break to the SE of us and a lot of boats are getting two or three fish per trip. The Blues and Blacks have come from farther up the Cortez side with most of them up around the Punta Gorda area. Live and dead bait have worked best for the Striped Marlin and lures have produced the Blues and Blacks.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: The Tuna scattered once again and have been found all over the place. The clue, as normal this time of year has been to find porpoise that are feeding. A lot of time the Porpoise are traveling and you can work them for hours with no results. If you are not marking fish on the depth sounder it does not pay to waste your time on them. If there are fish under them, stay around the area, the fish will come up and feed sooner or later. Most of the fish have been in the 20-pound class with a few larger fish to 60 pounds reported once in a while.
DORADO: I was blown away early in the week when I saw several boats flying outriggers full of yellow (and red) flags when they returned, I thought that it might have been a holiday or something, but it turned out that a piece of net had been found. The first boat to the net found it out along the Cabrillo Seamount and over the next three days it came closer to the cape and more boats got on it. The surface appearance was small, only a couple of yards square, but the net extended deep and was loaded with Dorado. Limits were the norm by boats that found it with most of the fish in the 20-pound class. Elsewhere there were Dorado caught as well with quite a few fish beginning to show up in the better weight classes. Bright colored lures worked well in the open ocean while live and cut bait was the ticket around the net.
WAHOO: I saw more Wahoo flags this week than I have seen combined for the rest of the year so far. While there were a lot of nice fish caught off of the net, there were a lot of fish as well along the temperature break to the SE. Lots of bite-offs were reported due to the use of monofilament leaders, but there were plenty of fish in the 40-60 pound class caught as well. Surprisingly, there were more Wahoo reported from offshore than were reported from the ledges and banks.
INSHORE: Small Roosterfish and a few scattered Sierras have been the majority of inshore fish this week as we are going through the seasonal temperature change. A few Pangas are trying bottom fishing but most of them are going a few miles out and trying to get into Dorado and Tuna.
NOTES: This weeks report was written to the music of “The Amazing Rhythm Aces” on the 1994 Sunshine Marketing release “Ride Again”. Listen and enjoy! Until next week, Tight Lines!
