Jan 4, 2004; 08:18PM - Power Drop -Shot Tactic
|

Category: Freshwater Bass Fishing Tips
|

Author Name: Steve S&K Guide Service

Tip&Trick Description 1:
We have been using a Power Drop Shot technique that you may have heard of, and it works great in Heavy Cover, and around docks and wood in rivers and lakes. We just rig a heavy weight of 3/8 to 3/4 of an ounce, and then tie on the bait, such as a Yamamoto 'IKA' tube about 10 inches up the line on a 3/0 Gamakatsu hook, and flip and pitch it right in the same way as a jig or other bait. It stays there longer and has more action. Deadly on in-active fish.

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT JANUARY 17-23, 2005
WEATHER: We had rain this week! On Tuesday the wind started to blow strong from the west and then the clouds rolled in on Wednesday. In the evening the drops started coming down sporadically and dotted the windshields on the cars. When we woke up on Thursday morning the streets were wet and there were puddles in the low lying areas. All the plants got dusted off and the boats had a soft water rinse. That was the big news. Other than that, things have remained about the same with our night time lows in the low to mid 60’s and our day time highs in the mid 80’s.
WATER: Surface conditions were very good this week on both sides of the cape with the exception of Tuesday when the winds picked up before the front moved in. There was a strongly defined temperature break over the San Jaime banks but there was no fish in the area in the latter half of the week. The water temperature near shore has been in the 72-73 degree range and a bit farther off shore the water warmed to 75-77 degrees. This warm water area was shaped like and upside down horseshoe at the cape and ran about 8 miles off shore.
BAIT: This week the bait has been almost all Mackerel with just a few very small Caballito in the mix. The price has been the normal $2 per bait.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Unbelievable as it may be, this weeks report is almost identical to last weeks! Wednesday was a banner day for Striped Marlin this week as the fish were packed up and close to home. The area to be was within 8 miles of shore just off the arch to the lighthouse, and they were feeding heavily. Most boats that worked the area were able to get at least several fish hooked up and almost everyone came in flying at least two Marlin flags. The most I heard of on one boat was 9 Striped Marlin released that day, and they were biting anything offered even dead bait on a drop back. That night the wind kicked up and by the morning the fish had scattered. The bite from Thursday on was not as good with the fish moving off the spot, but there were still a few fish in the area. It seemed that the fish started a slow move to the east and at the end of the week the Pacific side was pretty much dead and the action had moved to the area of the 95 spot.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: There was very little Tuna action this week, at least on anything of size. Every day a few boats were flying Tuna flags and when asked, the anglers all said they were for small, football size fish. There were Yellowfin at the Golden Gate Banks area and also a few miles off shore around the Los Arcos area on the Pacific and the fish were associated with Porpoise. One of the Private boats worked well to the west of the San Jaime at the end of the week and found nothing out there at all. We sure thought that the temperature break would be holding fish. Sigh.
DORADO: Dorado action picked up this week and the action was close to home. The edge of the warm water band as close as 8 miles out held fish this week and most boats that worked the area were able to get at least a few fish in the boat. Most of them were on the small side, less than 12 pounds, but there were a few in the 20-30 pound class as well. Almost any thing bright colored worked on them.
WAHOO: What Whoo?
INSHORE: It was a slow inshore bite this week but with the water being as calm as it has been, most of the Pangas have been working the off shore waters. There was a slow down on the Sierra bite but you could still get a few fish in the 3-5 pound class if you were in the right spot. Every thing else was spotty.
NOTES: Finished the Golf lessons and now I am ready to kick some butt! I was supposed to play this morning but we made reservations too late and could not get a tee time until 1 pm so guess it means the driving range instead. The football playoffs this afternoon. My goodness how a day can fill up! Next week I will be getting in some boat work and fishing as will post the next report for you on what is going on here in Cabo. Until then, Tight Lines!
