[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: Eric Genz-Mould, visiting us from up the Pacific Coast in[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Bothell, Wash., finished a successful trip, fishing from both beach and[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]panga. Tuna to 65-pounds, jacks to 15, plenty of dorado to 20-pounds and[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]skipjack were enough for them to begin planning their next Baja adventure.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Yesterday (3/28) the wind blew out of the south and it was Victory at Sea in[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]the afternoon. Regardless of the sea conditions, the big dorado and marlin[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]put on a pretty good show. Alaskan Pudge Klienkauf, catching a breath of[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]spring by visiting from Anchorage with her "Women's Angling" group, reported[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]multiple hookups on marlin and a few dorado. It’s not exactly what you’d[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]call wide open, but not bad either. Both of her group’s boats were sporting[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]marlin, dorado and tuna flags for the trip. Right now, there are few sardina[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]to be found and while there are dorado close to shore in the off-color[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]water, it is tough to keep them around the boat for long.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Closer to the beach there seem to be more roosters and jacks than normal for[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]this time of the year, but without the bait for chum it is tough to get the[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]shots. We did finally find a few schools of sardina between La Ribera and[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Punta Colorada and as you would expect, the jacks, roosters and dorado had[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]found them as well and it was very good fishing as long as it lasted. This[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]morning, the north wind is howling, but a few of our more persistent clients[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]were out at “zero dark hundred” to give the beach a whirl and see if the[/size][/font]
