REPORT #1070 “Below the Border” Saltwater Fly-Fishing reports since 1996
Endless Season Update July 07, 2007
East Cape
Unseasonably cooler water plagued the area again this week, pushing the best offshore action farther up into the Sea of Cortez from Punta Pescadero out to the eighty-eight - more fish seen than caught. However, there were a few blues to add to the excitement. Sardina were tough to come by so the bait supply was limited to ballyhoo and cabillitos. Dorado action continued to be sporadic with only an occasional trolled fish caught, though some were as large as forty pounds. Tuna action could be found if you were willing to travel 30 – 50 miles…mostly football sized fish with a few 20 pounders mixed in. If you weren’t on one of the early boats to find the porpoise, your odds diminished quickly.
Inshore has continued to be the best option for the flyrodder, offering good action for smaller roosters and jacks (with a few decent sized pargo in the mix) close to shore.
Beach action continued to be a challenge and is best left to the physically fit. Patrolling the beaches on foot in the midday sun trying to be in the right place at the right time can be tough. Try early morning and late afternoon when the ladyfish come out to play.

Magdalena Bay, Baja Mexico
The only offshore reports this week came from the shark fishermen who found a few dorado twenty miles west of the Entrada. Enrique Soto, from San Carlos, continued to pound the yellows at the Entrada, mostly firecrackers with just enough mossbacks to keep it interesting. There were also a few sierra and bonita mixed in with the yellows under the bird schools chasing the breezing sardinas.
Devil’s Curve produced a few snook in the ten pound class, as well as a few pargo and grouper that were suckers for a slow-retrieved chartreuse Baja Deepdiver.
Above Lopez Mateos the best bet was the surface action for corvina that were hitting poppers of any description. Of course there were plenty of spotted bay bass deeper down in the water column that couldn’t resist small Clousers.

Zihuatanejo, Mainland Mexico
Clean clear water is at the solitary rock at the entrance to Zihuatanejo Bay. Fishing is improving, with the trend on the plus side as we move away from the full moon phase. Even though there are not many boats going out, the fleet is averaging about 3 sailfish a day, per boat. Adan, on the panga, Gitana II, fished only one day this week, but managed 4 sailfish released.
Most of the sailfish have been taken between 12 and 14 miles from the bay entrance. The blue marlin and yellowfin tuna are still around, but they are still out at the 1,000 fathom line (about 30 to 32 miles).
Santiago, on the panga, Gitana, told me he released two nice roosters this week weighing approximately 42 to 45 pounds, but most roosters are averaging about 25 to 30 pounds. He also said there are a lot of the hard fighting jack crevalle filling in the gap between the rooster bites and are averaging 14 to 16 pounds.
