La Paz Fishing Report / february 27th 2022


Weather & Bait

Adiós Febrero, and take your wind with you. I’m sure I say this every year but, it’s seems like we’ve had a lot more wind this year then normal.
The water conditions are pretty normal for this time of year with cold green currents and limited visibility making for challenging conditions for the Spearos.
 
Bait can be made in the bay, mackerel and caballitos are in but moving around. Some of the mackerel are so big that the yellowtail are having a hard time eating them making for more short bites or busted line from being rocked from letting them run too long. At the end of the day our hit and miss percentage is around 50% on 50-60lb leader.
 

Fish Talk

That being said everybody’s coming back with fish.
It’s looking like the seamounts are starting to load up. This is good news as it gives us more fishing options when the fishing pressure gets heavy. The problem is there’s no protection from the wind so most days were tucked in close to the shore.
The Pargo and Cabrilla are mixed in on the rocky points as well with some yellow snapper, the largest I’ve ever seen.
There’s really no reason to keep this long. The fishing is good, the conditions are challenging but always start to change for the better in the coming month. March, April and May are probably the consistent months for catching fish as it’s the season for Yellowtail, AmberJacks, Pargo and Cabrilla. All great fighting and incredible eating fish.
Our weather is warm the beer is cold and the fish are hungry, get on down.
Hope to see you soon.
 
Keep the faith
Scotto.
