The dorado bite perked-up considerably this past week with some good
catches coming from the Pacific side of Cabo. Also in the mix was a
near 1 billfish per boat day fished average for the fleets. Overall
catches for a total of 30 days fished reflected 26 stripers, (22
released) 2 sailfish released, 48 yellowfin tuna, (school sized fish,
15-20 lbs.) and 118 dorado, (mostly in the 15 lb. range, along with a
few larger fish, too).
Cabo Climate: A good mix of sunshine and clouds with temps from 78 nights to 96 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Generally, very good overall with stable temps from the Golden Gate to Gorda Banks at 82-83 degrees.
Best Fishing Area: The Golden Gate Bank and surrounding area was the hot spot for the yellowfin tuna and dorado, along with a few billfish, too.
Best Lure/Bait: Live bait and strip bait were working well on the Dorado, as well as the lures. The tuna were taken on both, live bait and a variety off artificials, including cedar plugs, feathers, etc, in varied colors. Live bait best for the billfish.
Live Bait Supply: Good supply available, mostly caballitto, but the supply could be replenished with mackerel at the Golden Gate Bank.
