| 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. |

Now into to a new month, weather patterns continues to be slightly cooler
than during a normal year, transition period is taking longer than we would
expect. It has been a slow process waiting for water conditions to warm and
clean up, as well as for winds to become less of a factor. At this time the
ocean water temperature has ranged from 72 to 74 degrees. Clarity has
fluctuated, it seems just as we see blue water moving in there is a setback
as currents push in off colored currents again. Conditions can change very
quickly at this time of year, so as days become progressively warmer we
expect to see offshore surface action pick up accordingly.
The main offshore species now has been the striped marlin, these billfish
are striking on trolled lures and on cast or dropped back baits, mainly
caballito at this time. The marlin are being found scattered throughout the
zone, at times as close as a few miles from shore. They became a bit more
finicky during the recent the full moon, as well as with fluctuating
conditions, though most charters are having at least a chance or two while
targeting these fish, with some accounting for multiple catches. Not many
dorado were seen in recent days compared to last week when we did see a few
of them.
Only an occasional yellowfin tuna were being found, these tuna were taken
while drift fishing with bait on grounds from Iman to Vinorama, the fish we
did see ranged to over 80 lb. So they are still in the area, just need the
conditions to improve a bit more to their liking. Also a handful of wahoo
were seen on these same grounds, but they were very shy to striking any
offerings.
The most common catches have been various species found off the rock
structure, such as bonito, cabrilla, red snapper, fortune jack, amberjack,
yellowtail, triggerfish and others. Anglers reported mixed success
depending on which area they targeting and how favorable the conditions
were on a given day.
Along the shore the best action we saw was reported from areas to the south
of Puerto Los Cabos, nice sized sierra were accounted for, some as large as
13 lb., also a mix of jacks and of course more triggerfish.
Good fishing, Eric
