San Jose del Cabo
Anglers –
January 20, 2019
The crowds of tourists were lighter
this last week, which can be a typical
lull, as school semesters begin again
and vacation time is used up. We except
with chilly conditions across much of
North America, that more people will be
coming to Los Cabos looking for warm
sunshine. Despite there be being
morning cloud cover, days have been
mostly sunny, with high temperatures
averaging near 80 degrees. Winds were
still predominately from the north, but
not as strong is previous weeks, hard
to predict from day to day, a lot of
the better fishing action was found
closer to shore on calmer grounds.
This is peak season now for whale
activity, also sea lions and porpoise
being spotted. Ocean water temperature
was holding in the 72 to 75 degree
range, clarity was good, clean blue
water found within a mile of shore.
There were supplies of caballito in the
marina area, also ballyhoo and slabs of
squid. Some charters are catching some
mackerel, sardineta or chihuil, a bit
day to day as to what exact baits are
available and which end up working the
best.
The great action we had the previous
week for wahoo and dorado faded out
this week, hard to say why, water
conditions are similar, no drastic
changes, we are optimistic that these
fish are still in the region. There had
been very limited action for yellowfin
tuna, tuna are starting to be
encountered traveling with porpoise,
much of this found 25 miles plus
offshore. Just in recent days the
yellowfin are becoming active on the
Inner Gordo Banks. This bite had become
a late afternoon local commercial deal,
hooking tuna only late in the
afternoon, returning to the docks in
the dark. There was a 200 lb. yellowfin
brought in earlier in the week. Other
fish of 150 lb. or more. These
yellowfin are now finally striking in
the morning as well, drift fishing with
squid has been the main thing these
fish have been striking consistently
on. Most of these fish are weighing in
the 30 to 90 lb. class, but there are
tuna much larger on these same grounds
now. No huge numbers of these fish are
being brought in, but there is a fair
chance now at catching one or two, at
least we are seeing yellowfin again,
especially since the wahoo and dorado
action came to a standstill.
Besides looking for these tuna, the
main bite being targeted are the
Eastern Pacific bonito off of La
Fortuna. Striking readily on jigs,
Rapalas, hoochies, etc.. Good action on
light tackle, ranging 4 – 8 lb., good
eating as well, different than the
California bonito. A few pargo, red
snapper, cabrilla, amberjack, but no
numbers, more triggerfish off the
bottom structure than anything else.
Striped marlin has been on and off of
San Jose del Cabo, still a better
chance south, closer to Cabo San Lucas.
As more baitfish move in the direction
of the Sea of Cortez, then we will see
the marlin more prevalent.
Along the inshore stretches there has
been some sierra and roosterfish found,
without any sardinas it makes it more
limited inshore.
The combined sportfishing fleet out of
the panga area from Puerto Los Cabos
Marina reported an estimated 68
charters for the week and anglers
reported an approximate fish count of:
9 striped marlin, 12 dorado, 24
yellowfin tuna, 5 wahoo, 225 bonito, 13
red snapper, 4 cabrilla (leopard
grouper), 12 yellow snapper, 6 mohara,
10 tijareta, 8 roosterfish, 4 surgeon
fish, 12 sierra and 80 triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
