|
| Not all fishes lay eggs. |
| Fishes like split fins, surf-perches, and some sharks instead carry and give birth to live young. Scientists have also discovered that the embryos of some of these fishes actually consume each other in the womb. How’s that for creepy fish facts? |

| The Sea Anemone looks like a flower, but it’s actually a carnivorous animal that eats small fish and shrimp. |

|
| Fishes hear with both their ears and their skeletons, sensing the vibrations of sound in the water. |
| Scientists even suspect that sharks can clearly hear sounds from over 3 km away. |

|
| In three decades, the world's oceans will contain more discarded plastic than fish when measured by weight, researchers say. |

| As of 2020, there were 34,000 known fish species around world. That’s more than the number of species in all other vertebrates: birds, reptiles, mammals, and amphibians combined. |

| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

| Fish have built in radar? |
| Built-in Radar Many species of fish have a powerful sense organ called the lateral line running across their body. It can detect motion in the water, allowing them to hunt prey, avoid predators, and navigate in the dark. |

Tip&Trick Description 1:
I just returned from a fishing trip on the Fin Fever out of Newport Beach, California and was I impressed with what they used to catch the tunas! We used Yozuri Hydromagnums in the to troll for the albacore tunas. I am telling you these were the hottest lures I have seen in a long time! They removed the front treble hook from the lures to make removal of the lure easier and faster from the fish. After multiple double and triple hookups I am convinced these are the hottest lures around! I asked to take a photo of the lures so I could get some and thanks to the crew and their hot tricks we caught our limit (all we wanted till we were tired of pulling on the fish!) Great trip with a great group of guys!! Hope this photo helps.......Matt |

GORDO BANKS PANGAS
San Jose del Cabo
December 1, 2013
Anglers –
Thanksgiving vacationers visiting Los Cabos this week were greeted with
pristine weather conditions. As much of the United States was being
impacted by powerful storms, in Southern Baja the climate has been ideal,
highs ranging 75/80 degrees, scattered early day cloud cover, with plenty
of sunshine the rest of the day. Early in the week there were strong
gusting winds whipping in from the north, this limited angler’s options for
a few days, later in the week the winds resided and ocean conditions were
much more comfortable.
Water temperatures were ranging from 76 degrees on the Pacific to 79/80
degrees off of San Jose del Cabo and towards Los Frailes. Live caballito
and other jacks have been available, should not be long before we see
schools of mackerel appearing on local grounds. Sardinas are starting to be
found in closer proximity, but this is still a day to day situation on
quantity and exactly where these baitfish are located. Squid and ballyhoo
have been offered at the dock area, overall the bait situation has
improved, with lighter pressure in coming weeks, this should give the
resource a chance to rebound some.
The Iman Bank has been the most productive spot recently. There have been
wahoo, dorado, yellowfin tuna and billfish all found on these banks. Most
plentiful fish have been the tuna, these yellowfin are ranging from 10 to
20 pounds, anglers had best results while drift fishing with strips of cut
squid or with sardinas, we are starting to see the commercial panga fleet
from near Los Frailes traveling south to Iman Bank with supplies of freshly
netted sardinas for sale, this proved to be the best bet for finding wide
open surface action. Lots of bonito and skipjack were also schooling on the
same local grounds. Roaming dorado were found scattered throughout the
region, not in big numbers, most dorado were under 15 lb., though a handful
of larger dorado were mixed in.
We are still in peak season for the elusive wahoo, so far these fish have
not gone on any extended consistent wide open bite, though things appear to
shaping up in the direction of some quality wahoo action in the coming
weeks. Everyday these fish are being encountered in limited numbers,
individual charters have landed up to several fish per morning, while
loosing other strikes as well, most anglers were fortunate to land just one
of these speedsters. Of the wahoo being brought in, weights have averaged
25 lb. to 45 lb. The majority of wahoo strikes recently have come on slow
trolled baits, caballito or chihuil and there has been a recent trend of
more wahoo hook ups being reported later in the morning, versus the
traditional first daylight action.
Ocean temperatures have been on a slow cooling trend, we have seen
conditions remain a couple of degrees warmer than would be expected during
this time frame, we do expect to see temperatures continue to fall, as days
are now progressively becoming shorter and with northerly winds becoming
more frequent it will not be long before we experience transition time
again. The annual migration of whales is now arriving in the first wave and
will be peaking in the coming months, as these mammals arrive from their
northern feeding grounds to give berth to their offspring in the
subtropical waters of Southern Baja California.
With the offshore surface action continuing to be the most productive deal,
we are not seeing much bottom action reported. Sierra action is now an
inshore option for anglers having live sardinas.
Striped marlin action was wide open on certain areas, from the Pacific
grounds, multiple catch days were common and also these schooling fish are
now moving in the direction of San Jose del Cabo, marlin are being found
within a couple miles of shore, striking on trolled lures and various
baitfish, the late morning action has been most productive.
The combined panga fleets launching out of La Playita, Puerto Los Cabos
Marina sent out approximately 138 charters for this past week, with anglers
accounting for a fish count of: 23 striped marlin, 3 sailfish, 47 wahoo,
140 bonito, 10 cabrilla, 7 amberjack, 28 pargo, 22 sierra, 110 dorado and
610 yellowfin tuna.
Good fishing, Eric
