fishing tips and tricks
 Aug 5, 2003; 10:29PM - Bimini Twist
 Category:  Knots to use
 Author Name:  Steve vonBrandt/S&K Guide Service
Bimini Twist Tip&Trick Description 1: Bimini Twist
Used primarily for offshore trolling and double-line leaders. A Bimini twist creates a long loop of line which is stronger than the the line itself. A Bimini twist is a simple method of doubling your fishing line in order to prevent chafing or to create the necessary loop in order to attach a wind-on leader. A short Bimini twist (up to five feet) can easily be accomplished by one person. To tie a Bimini twist longer than five feet takes two people, although it could be done alone with a lot of practice. This knot is a 100% knot, meaning, it retains 100% or the original strength of the line being used.


1. Measure a little more than twice the length you will want for the double-line. Bring end back to standing line and hold together. Rotate end of loop 18 - 23 times, by twisting it.
2. Slowly spread the loop to slide twists together about 10' below tag end. You want to spread the lines evenly, keeping the same angle on each side, so they do not wrap on top on one another. Step both feet through loop and bring it up around knees so pressure can be placed on column of twists by spreading knees your apart. It is easiest to learn the knot with two people so one person can hold and spread the lines while the other person ties the knot. Bimini twists over 5 feet long really need two people to tie properly, unless you have 8' legs!
3. With twists now snug together, hold standing line in one hand with tension just slightly off the vertical position. With other hand, move tag end to position at right angle to twists. Keeping tension on loop with knees, gradually ease tension of tag end so it will roll over the column of twists, beginning just below the upper twist. (as the line continues to spread apart the tag end will wrap back down over top of the twists.)
4. Spread legs apart slowly to maintain pressure on loop. Steer tag end into a tight spiral coil as it continues to roll over the twisted line. It take a practice, but avoid the twists jumping back over top. The twists should lay side by side and coil down nicely as shown to the right.
5. When spiral of tag end has rolled over column of twists, continue keeping knee pressure on loop and pinch the end of knot to keep it from unraveling. Put a finger in crotch of line where loop joins knot to prevent slippage of last turn. Now make a simple half-hitch with tag end around nearest leg of loop and pull up tight.
6. With half-hitch holding knot, release knee pressure but keep loop stretched. Using remaining tag end, take half-hitch around both legs of loop, but do not pll tight.
7. Make 2-3 more turns with the tag end around both legs of the loop, winding inside the bend of line formed by the loose half-hitch and toward the knot. Pull tag end slowly, forcing the loops to form in a spiral.
8. Moisten spirals and pull loops tight against main knot. Leave about 1/4' of a tag end when trimming. Keep practicing, it takes some time.

San Jose del Cabo


December 10, 2006

Anglers –



Moderate crowds of tourists are traveling to Los Cabos and they are being greeted with lots of sunshine, high temperatures of 80 degrees, very enjoyable considering the reports of freezing and wet conditions across most of the United States. North winds continue to prevail, but were not as persistent as last week, in recent days the winds averaged in the 8 to 12 miles per hour range. These winds have helped cooler and dirtier currents to push in from the north and the water clarity was now green and murky on the Sea of Cortez side of the peninsula, with the cleaner water now being found off the Pacific.



Sportfishing fleets searched in all directions, looking to find the best possible action for striped marlin, dorado, and yellowfin tuna, overall the numbers of fish caught was less than two weeks ago, which is not unexpected for this time of year when there is the transition from the Fall to Winter season. Live sardinas were being netted from Palmilla to Santa Maria and was still the bait of choice for the medium sized gamefish. Water temperatures are now ranging from 74 to 78 degrees, with the coolest band being located close to shore off of San Jose del Cabo. Swells were practically non-existent along the beaches and the cooler water has attracted more numbers of sierra and smaller roosterfish.



Yellowfin tuna were found in various locations from Cabo San Lucas to Santa Maria and north to the Gordo Banks area, sometimes associated with porpoise, but more often they were located in schools closer to shore while chumming sardinas to bring them to the surface, often they would bite early and then shut down by mid-morning, sea lions were particularly a nuisance off of Santa Maria to Cabeza Ballena, at times making it nearly impossible to land a fish without having it eaten. Tuna were not overly abundant and the average fish being landed weighed 10 to 40 pounds, white and black skipjack were mixed in with the yellowfin and were weighing up to 10 pounds. Over the weekend anglers scouted out the Gordo Banks which had not shown any results earlier in the week, but with water clarity showing some improvement they accounted for some larger yellowfin tuna while drift fishing with live and dead sardinas, these fish ranged from 25 to 90 pounds, some pangas landed up to four or five tuna.



Dorado action improved some, maybe because more anglers were starting to troll lures and larger baits, such as bolito or skipjack. Dorado up to 50 pounds were caught, but most of the fish were found in smaller schools and more of them were in the 10 to 25 pound class, with charters that targeted them averaging anywhere from one to three dorado per day. These fish were striking on lures and various baits at about an equal ratio.



Wahoo season never really happened this fall season, basically only a flurry of activity early in November, this past week there were reports of a few scattered fish being hooked on lures, typically closer to Cabo San Lucas, but that was only for a day or two and now with the cooling water temperatures we could find that it will be even more difficult to find any cooperative wahoo this late in the year.



Striped marlin dominated the billfish action, though it was mainly on the Pacific, from El Faro to the Golden Gate Bank. Schools of mackerel were found balled up on the surface at times and this created a feeding frenzy, it was common for charters to account for several marlin and even as many as six in one outing. A good percentage of stripers were also striking on trolled lures.



Inshore there were increased numbers of sierra and roosterfish showing up, most of them less than

5 pounds, but scrappy fighters on light tackle. Off the bottom anglers had mixed success while using bait and yo-yo jigs for cabrilla, pargo, pompano, triggerfish and grouper.



There were approximately 69 total panga charters launched this week by the combined panga fleets of La Playita. Anglers accounted for a fish count of: 7 striped marlin, 8 sailfish, 64 dorado, 32 yellowfin tuna, 190 skipjack, 24 cabrilla, 5 amberjack, 16 pompano, 135 triggerfish, 82 pargo, 185 sierra and 28 roosterfish.



Good Fishing, Eric
