CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT FOR AUGUST 31 TO SEPTEMBER 6, 2003
WEATHER: We were surprised this week by a quick storm that struck on Wednesday. With
Hurricane Ignacio having passed, we were thinking that the bad weather was over, but on
Wednesday morning the Port Captain closed the port from 6 to 6:30 AM, then re-opened. Most
of the boats went out, but were back by noon. The swell built all morning as a storm moved
through our area from the east. Captains wee reporting swells to 12 feet with winds gusting to
35-40 MPH. The port was closed again at 1PM. By that night everything had passed but the
port was not re-opened until 10 AM on Thursday. Most of the boats did not go out until Friday.
Naturally, we had overcast skies all week long except for Tuesday, and our nighttime lows were
in the mid 70’s while our daytime highs reached the low 90’s, with high humidity.
WATER: Great conditions early in the week with the passing of Ignacio, terrible during the
middle of the week and things got a bit better at the end of the week as far as the surface
conditions went. By Saturday the water on the Pacific side was back down to 4-6 foot swells
with a little wind chop and slightly smaller swells were reported from the Sea of Cortez side. At
the end of the week the water inshore on the Pacific side was green and did not blue up until
approximately three miles out. From there out to just past the San Jaime and Golden Gate Banks,
the water was blue and 80-81 degrees. Really warm water was not found until well past the
Banks at distances of up to 35 miles. Due south of the Cape the blue, warm water was 15 miles
out. The Sea of Cortez side of the Cape had warm water closer to shore, but it was a bit stirred
up and off colored.
BAIT: Mackerel was the bait this week at the normal $2 each.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: It was an on-off thing for the Marlin this week as the bite just went off on Friday if
you were in the right place at the right time. The rest of the week was not as good, but the saying
still held true. It looked like almost every boat out there came in with a Marlin flag on Friday, just
after the storm passed through, but on Saturday the fish went somewhere else. Early in the week
the Billfish action was consistent and most of the fish were found on the Pacific side out around 5
miles. That is also where the fish were later on in the week, at least until Saturday. Lots of
Stripers were spotted on the surface, but few of them were interested in eating, just like last week
it was a numbers game. Some boats got lucky and hit two in a row that were hungry, but most
guys had to toss bait at a lot of fish to get action. Lures were not working very well this week
except for the Blue Marlin, and they were being finicky. A few were found prior to the storm but
they were not on the feed, and after the storm they were far offshore in the warmer water. In
summary, Marlin action was a bit off this week except for Friday, and there were far more
Stripers found than Blues.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: Just about the only area that held Tuna at the end of the week was the
warm water 15 miles and more to the south. The fish were mixed in with the Porpoise and most
of them were football fish striking on small dark feathers and cedar plugs. Great action on Friday,
that seemed to be true of all the species, that Friday was great!
DORADO: The debris washed into the water by Hurricane Ignacio is holding Dorado now, and
there were some great catches made. Most of the action has been on debris found in the current
lines to the south of the Cape and the fish are running from 10 to 60 pounds, with an average of
20 pounds. Live bait dropped into the water around the debris gave up fish and there were quite
a few caught on the troll as well. Of course, for some reason Friday was the banner day, with a
few boats limiting out on Dorado.
WAHOO: A good number of Wahoo flags were flown this week and as last week, most of the
action seemed to come from the Pacific side and of course, off the debris in the current lines to
the south. Lots of Marlin lures had to be repaired or replaced this week due to the razor-toothed
fish, but it was worth it to most anglers. Quite a few fish were found on the troll for Marlin but a
lot were caught on live bait around the debris as well.
INSHORE: Just like last week, with the water inshore being cold and green, there was very little
action. We saw a Pangas as far as 5 miles out on the Pacific side at the end of the week, looking
for clear water.
NOTES: This weeks report was written to the sound of the late Roy Buchanan, off his album
“Second Album”. Great music and a new favorite of mine! Thanks Charlie! Until next week,
tight lines!
