| Not all animals with the word fish in their names count as fish. |
| Though their names may suggest otherwise, cuttlefish, starfish, and jellyfish aren’t actually fish. Generally-speaking, fishes must have skulls, gills, and fins. Surprisingly, though, not all fishes have proper spines. |

Changes in latitudes changes in attitudes
There are large schools of yellowfin tuna 40 plus
miles East of the East Cape resorts. Finding them is
no guarantee they will bite. Many anglers are
returning after a long boat ride with
disappointment. Jen Wren boats have avoided the
frustration and horrendous boat rides by targeting
striped marlin closer to shore.
Getting the marlin to go has been a trick. For
several weeks we have not sighted tailers nor have
the fish had much interest in lures. The key has
been large schools of small bonita that have been
abundant off the La Ribera high spot and also
around the shark buoys off Punta Pescadero.
Catching and slow trolling these bonita have been a
very effective method to attract marlin.
An intersting note that has made photography
challenging is the marlin we have hooked using
small bonita for bait are not jumping during battle.
We went from fishing J hooks to circle hooks with
hopes that hooking the fish in the corner of the
mouth would change their behavior. The marlin just
shake their head as they stick it out of the water.
Also, a large percentage of them are regurgitating
their stomachs.
This week conditions have gone from hot and
humid with calm seas to cooler tempatures and
strong north winds. This is the third day we have
been stuck on the beach due to the winds. Looks
like we may have an early winter. The East Cape
weather is making the expected changes in latitude
which is affecting my attitude!
