Buenos dias los pescadores! One phrase can sum up the fishing this past month: Free-for-All. Everything was available, with anything from billfish to yellowfin tuna being caught. All in a day’s work as we like to say. I’d have to honestly say, the only thing we didn’t catch or hear anybody catch, were colds. Unlike last month, warmer water and air temps certainly made the experience more pleasurable. This is the fishing that keeps the popularity of these waters growing and most importantly, smiles on angler’s faces. Read the rest of this entry »

Buenos dias los pescadores! What a great end to the month of February, call it El Nino or whatever you want, but the buffet continues! Our usual winter roster of inshore species were available in many different areas, as well as, some dorado were holding, a couple billfish were spotted, and some yellowtails started biting. Beginning of the month, fishing was a bit spotty as conditions were more uncooperative for anglers. Not much rain this month, but a lot of wind in the middle of the week, which seemed to settle down towards the weekends. Read the rest of this entry »

Pretty good numbers as fishing was more common to a normal winter season this month. The best spots to hit were inshore, targeting Sierra Mackerels, pargo and cabrilla. Winds became a bit more of a factor towards the middle of Jan, as the water temperature dropped and the color became more green; even south towards Cabo. All in all, we continue to have a solid winter with a great variety of species hitting the decks. Read the rest of this entry »

Feliz Navidad! La Paz is a such a beautiful place around the holidays; the city’s rich history and tradition really standout during the Christmas season. The fishing was again, successful & peaceful this month with very few anglers on the water. Those that did go out fishing, their numbers were strong and variety was high. Sierra Mackerel still dominate the scene, but Pargo (snapper) and Cabrilla (seabass) seem to be getting hungrier. Read the rest of this entry »

Fishing continues to get more challenging as the seasons change and winds start to blow with more frequency in November. Inshore fishing is getting stronger, but the recently strong open water bite keeps anglers chasing schools around Isla Cerralvo. This is pretty common this time of year as we are seasonally shifting into the winter climate and marine migration patterns. La Paz is wonderful this time of year. Read the rest of this entry »

Last year it was Hurricane Norbert, this year, a 6.9 earthquake roughly 120 miles east of La Paz. This didn’t down angler’s spirits, as strong varieties of fish overcame the changing weather. A lot less shorts and sandals seen around in town, but the water temps are still up and that’s keeping pelagics around. Read the rest of this entry »

Well weather is definitely showing signs to the end of summer, but anglers are back on the water and back in action following Tropical Storm Georgette. This storm brought rain to the Baja Peninsula, and little drop in the numbers or varieties of fish we’ve been seeing. Dorado were bigger this month, strong bonita #’s gave us some larger bait, but the giant squid are still around and strips of el diablo rojo worked well on the dodo’s. Read the rest of this entry »
