Making the best better
Lots to talk about this week and too many great
photos to choose from.
The end of last week Yellowfin tuna made their first
showing. It looked like the East Cape was off to the
races when a few different schools of dolphin were
located all holding tuna. Then it happened. The
water in the Sea of Cortez turned over to an ugly
green color. With that, for now, the tuna have
vanished.
The striped marlin bite has been very consistent and
the off colored water hasn't seemed to deter them.
The water appears to be clearing up now but was so
off-color for a couple of days it made me wonder how
the fish ever found our baits.
Getting the marlin to go has been ever changing.
One day they will bite the jigs but have nothing to do
with them the next. Large 5.5 sized lures have been
best. The problem is the weight of the big lures
helps the marlin throw them when shaking their head.
It has also been an ever changing pattern with fresh
baits. One day they are all over live bait and the next
prefer ballyhoo. It has kept it interesting and also
kept us on our toes.
Speaking of bait, the situation has been pretty grim.
Sardines have completely vanished making in shore a
tough proposition. We were able to make spanish
mackerel and sardineta for several days but the
porpoise found them and that was the end of that.
Now live horalitos and frozen ballyhoo is the only
option.
This week Accurate Jack Nilsen with his merry team
showed up to field test some new Accurate
prototypes. He had one of their new 'Three Dawg'
models and also some other secret stuff. The reels
looked the same as older models but I was assured
they had some new trick stuff on the inside.
Accurate reminds me of Apple computers. They
already have the best product available but are always
ahead of the curve looking for new ways to make it
even better.
Jack is one of the luckiest fishermen I have ever
encountered. The fish bite every time he visits. In
four days we hooked 18 stripers and had many more
opportunities. He invited different guests each day to
fish with us and every one came away having released
at least one marlin. It was a pleasure to have Rancho
Leonero owner John Ireland out with us one day as
well.
