Sushi All Around - bajafly - 10-12-2002 REPORT FROM GARY GRAHAM'S BAJA ON THE FLY: PROVIDING QUALITY SALTWATER FLY-FISHING 365 DAYS A YEAR IN BAJA FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: [url "mailto:bajafly@usa.net"]bajafly@usa.net[/url]; USA toll-free (800) 919-2252; Mexico 011-52-614-14-10373 Sat., October 12, 2002 EAST CAPE AND MAGDALENA BAY FISHING CONDITIONS EAST CAPE, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO IN GENERAL: Plenty of tuna and the group from The Reel Life, Santa Fe, NM, found out how tough they can be. At last count some five flylines had been lost. They did manage to catch enough for sushi at the hotel each night. Dorado continues to be hit or miss for the fly rodder. We had five boats out yesterday and one came home with the bacon, oops I mean dorado. Only a few roosterfish close to shore were accounted for this week. AIR & SEA - By Sun. (10/6) the north wind had backed off and we were back to the normal afternoon breezes out of the east. Temperature 93° F / 72° F Humidity 74% Wind Calm Conditions Partly Cloudy (BKN) : (FEW) : 20000 ft Sunrise 7:13 AM MDT Sunset 6:59 PM MDT Oct 13 First Quarter Oct 21 Full Oct 29 Last Quarter Nov 4 New Water Temps in the mid- to upper-80's offshore. · OFFSHORE: Tuna held the limelight with a steady bite all week. Sailfish were less plentiful this week but there was an increase in the number of blues and stripes for the week. · INSHORE: Some large skipjacks and a few schoolie dorados. On the rooster and jack front, it was slow · BEACH: The mainstay of the beach this week was a wide open ladyfish bite that kept things interesting in between the few roosters and jacks that showed. BILLFISH - Fair to good. YELLOWFIN TUNA - As expected the bite has built all month. DORADO - Good for some and so-so for many of the flyfishers. ROOSTERFISH - Still plenty of sardina along the shore to attract some of the smaller fish. JACK CREVALLE - A few bigger ones out at Punta Arena BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Schools throughout Las Palmas Bay all the way to Las Fralies PARGO AND CABRILLA - Lots of smaller ones around the sticks at the arroyo next to Scott Glenn's. SIERRA - No takers this week. MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO Sat., October 12, 2002 IN GENERAL: Right on time, here come the "stripeys". Reports from both the locals and the yachts traveling down the coast have been encouraging and I am looking forward to going up there next week. Some of the yachts reported multiples on a straight line below the Thetis and above Cabo Lazaro. Some of the locals fishing five miles outside of the Entrada found a pretty good wad of dorado and then are you ready for this? They caught several inside the bay near the Entrada. That's a new one on me! Up in the esteros things are heating up as well with some decent snook fishing near Devil's Curve. Several larger fish got the best of anglers by getting wrapped up in some of the roots. Corvina continued to bite well throughout the bay. A few halibut were still around for those who targeted them. Water Temperature 72 - 79 Temperature 82° F - 72 °F Humidity 98% Wind Calm with some wind in the afternoon Conditions Clear Sunrise 7:22 AM MDT Sunset 7:06 PM MDT Oct 13 First Quarter Oct 21 Full Oct 29 Last Quarter Nov 4 New YELLOWTAIL - A few at the entrada. CORVINA - A few smaller fish spread out throughout the bay. Pier at San Carlos and the bridge are your best bet. SNOOK - Picked up this week with good catches at Devil's Curve. HALIBUT - Sandy beaches the best SIERRA - Pretty quiet. [signature] |
