Tip&Trick Description 1:
My first time fishing Lake Cachuma was this last weekend April 27th 2002 and I will let you in on a secret this is a fine lake with great staff excellent fishing and abundant campsites. I was very impressed with the guys at the marina ( Jim and Allen) for giving us great tips for fishing their lake without holding back any information necessary for a first timer to their lake. Right out of the marina he told me to troll straight thru the center of the lake and we would be sure to get bit and he was right. Less than 10 minutes from the launch ramp right where he suggested we caught the first fish a nice largemouth bass about 3-4 lbs and lost the first hook up as we were surprised to get a strike so soon. This fish jumped clear out of the water and fought like a much larger fish than it actually ended up being. |

Tip&Trick Description 2:
We released the bass and continued anxious to get to the trout which is what we were after. On the way to the next spot Jim and Allen had given us directions to we saw 4 deer on the shore grazing like they owned the place (which I guess they did) We set our sites on the points jetting out along the far side of the lake about 200 feet offshore. Instantly off one of the points both the reels went off as we were trolling rainbow trout colored Yo-zuri Emperor Minnows and L-Jack series lures on 4 and 6 lb test at a fairly slow troll. First fish fell off but I managed to get mine to the boat and into it for supper that evening. We did a turn around and went right back over the same spot and sure enough another missed opportunity. Back we went again with another 2 strikes managing to get one in the boat for a better meal for the 3 of us eating that night. Back and forth again for nothing and we decided to give the opposite bank a try. |

Tip&Trick Description 3:
On the other side of the lake were the serious bass guy's fishing the bow of their sleek boats with the chairs and trolling motor on the bow. We steered clear of them and moved again about 200 feet off the shoreline and continued our trolling pattern slow and parallel to shore. We started noticing the wind more and more as we headed back towards the launch ramp noticing there was only one jacket made it to the boat and it was mine! We again managed to get another rainbow to strike right out of the water it jumped and then a small battle and into the boat it came. We were done now 1 fish each for dinner and one released bass in about 2 hours fishing time. Now it was back to camp to make dinner and get warm. A jacket is a good thing to bring on any lake as the wind always decides to blow in the afternoon. I must tell you that the guy's at the marina tackle shop know their stuff about where the fish are biting and what they are biting on. Without their tips we may have come home empty handed as several others had that day. Good luck if you get a chance to fish Lake Cachuma and be sure to say hello the the great guys at the tackle shop near the launch ramp it may pay off big time for you in the long run.....Fish on! <'))))>< |

Report Description:
Gordo Banks Pangas
San Jose del Cabo
July 1, 2007
Anglers –
The pattern of unpredictable cooler than normal ocean conditions continued this past week. The relentless breeze from the south persisted and pushed cold and dirty currents into the lower Sea of Cortez. Early in the week the ocean swells significantly increased and this particularly stirred up the inshore areas. At this time there are no tropical storms developing to the south, but the weather is becoming increasingly more humid and reaching in the 90s. The water temperatures were ranging from 70 to 77 degrees, with most of the area off of San Jose del Cabo averaging 72 to 74 degrees. Sportfishing fleets were fishing off of the Pacific near Jaime Bank and north to the Gordo Banks, finding a varying of slow to very respectable action, depending on the day and location. Live bait availability consisted of sardinas and mullet, with mackerel schools also being found balled up on the surface on the offshore fishing grounds, they proved to be the bait of choice.
Striped marlin were spotted in good numbers offshore, but it was another story hooking up, especially if you were armed with only mullet, they were not that eager to strike on them, though for anglers that had mackerel in their arsenal they reported much better success. During the later part of the week anglers that scouted out the Outer Gordo Bank area reported good action on amberjack and yellowtail, these fish were seen feeding on the surface, trolling with live mackerel proved to be the best bet, but some fish hit on iron jigs. The fish that were landed were of quality size, all in the 25 to 45 pound class. No sign of yellowfin tuna on the banks, only a few scattered reports from cruisers searching further offshore of finding football sized tuna underneath porpoise, though there was no consistency on them. The vicinity of the Jaime Banks is where the fleets found a series of floating Sargasso weed patches and reported fast action for nice sized dorado and a few wahoo taken from the same areas, this bite was a matter of finding the weeds and being one of the first boats to be on the scene.
The San Jose panga fleets concentrated most of their efforts closer to shore and off the various bottom reefs from Cardon to San Luis. Using mainly baits and also some yo-yo jigs they were accounting for a mix of huachinango, yellow snapper, cabrilla, amberjack, pompano, pargo colorado, dogtooth snapper, bonito, surgeon fish, jack crevalle and triggerfish. Very few reports on roosterfish this week, though some larger roosters were spotted feeding, but they disappeared just as fast as they appeared.
The La Playita panga fleets sent out a total of 59 charters for the week, with anglers accounting for an approximate fish total of: 4 striped marlin, 7 dorado, 3 hammerhead sharks, 26 sierra, 27 amberjack, 14 roosterfish, 13 jack crevalle, 215 yellowtail snapper, 12 barred pargo, 21 huachinango, 15 cabrilla, 72 bonita, 8 dogtooth snapper, 20 pargo colorado, 11 yellowtail, 16 surgeonfish, 22 pompano and 28 triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
