Spooktober! Fishing Report

Leave a Comment / Fishing Report / By BACo Reportes

Cabo has a lot going on this week with the Black and Blue and Bisbee tournaments. Fishing here in La Paz hasn’t changed much. Now the Dorado are back in force and seem to be getting bigger by the week. A few degrees cooler should activate the Wahoo that are hanging around the seamounts. The Spearos can see them, they are just being lazy and definitely not on the chew. We did catch a few tuna out at the bajo, but they were just little guys. Great bait for Marlin but too small to keep for eating.

October 10th! Fishing Report

Leave a Comment / Fishing Report / By BACo Reportes

We have snapper, AmberJacks, grouper and the likes hanging on the seamounts but with this water temperature their time in range is coming to an end, it’s time to change gears. Our guest are now mostly targeting Dorado which are so plentiful that it would make no sense to pass on this incredible fighting and most desirable eating fish. The striped Marlin are abundant. We’ve had a few reports of Wahoo and We have reports of tuna 60 miles South of us.

Welcome October! Fishing Report

Leave a Comment / Fishing Report / By BACo Reportes

We still have Dorado and Striped Marlin dominating the fishing action. They are plentiful and really close to home. The average size of the Dorado are starting to get much larger. October normally is the kick off of the Wahoo season. Both Blue and Black Marlin are hanging around the seamounts feeding on the Bonito and dorado that are in the area. For the most part the tuna have been a no show. A couple here and there or I saw them yesterday but they wouldn’t bite.

Autumn is here! Fishing Report

I really can’t say much more about the dorado. The key is purchase your bait and get after it right away. The first boats on the fishing grounds will limit out in minutes. 15-20 lb class fish is the norm with the occasional 30 lb bonus fish coming over the rail. The wahoo fishing hasn’t developed yet but the water is still a few degrees too warm. My guess by next month we will be in full swing for these speedsters. We are starting to catch some Sierra and roosters inshore. These are normally cool water species, not sure hats going on there. The Sierra are great eating grilled or smoked. Bottom fishing has been good when the currents aren’t raging for Pargo, cabrilla and trigger fish.
IMO, October is the best month for fishing and weather. The humidity starts to drop along with the morning air temperature. October is also the best month for and the largest variety of Pelagic’s.

Golden August

Leave a Comment / Fishing Report / By BACo Reportes

Dorado and striped Marlin are the main event. The size of these golden acrobats are ranging from 10-20lbs with the occasional larger bull being landed.
Trolling strips of bonito belly ,sardines or rigged ballyhoos are getting it done. In the same general area the striped Marlin and sailfish are feeding as well. We noticed large schools of flying fish and ballyhoo in the area, so that would be my guess as to why the fish are all hanging together. On the seamounts there is still good bottom fishing, Giant Cubera snapper and Cabrilla mainly on the yo-yo, though the hook up and landing percentage is tough.

The main game is Dorado. Inshore fishing for Pargitos and Cabrilla triggerfish make for a fun afternoon. And Striped Marlin are in the mix.

Late July Fishing Report

Leave a Comment / Fishing Report / By BACo Reportes

We can officially say the spring/summer transition period has ended. The conditions needed for great summer fishing are finally here. Bait is plentiful and literally everywhere, Dorado has been plentiful, the striped Marlin are abundant but, seem to have a little case of lock jaw. We’ve had a few reports of Wahoo. Some of our more experienced Spearos have had success. Also, We had a blue released last week pushing 350lbs and a few smaller in the 200lb class. Anyway, fishing is developing nicely.
