CABO SAN LUCAS WEEKLY FISHING CATCH SUMMARY BY CABO MAGIC

Aug. 21-27, 2005, Tommy Garcia, Cabo Magic, Cabo San Lucas fishing summary, Baja California Sur, Mexico:

Fishing summary: 60 Team Captains; 8 Blue Marlin; 27 Striped Marlin; 6 Pacific Sailfish; 3 Dorado; 3 Wahoo; 25 Yellowfin Tuna; 2; Roosterfish; 12 YellowTail.

We experienced a combination of sunny skies, scattered rain and windy conditions produced by Hurricane Hilary, E9 and Tropical Depression Irwin this period. The Port Captain closed our port on Monday August 22nd as Hurricane Hilary passed several hundred miles south created wild conditions. The outer bands of the hurricane provided welcomed rain to the agricultural areas of Todos Santos and San Jose del Cabo.

People often ask: “Can a panga catch what a larger boat does?” The answer is “Yes” When the fish are within the travel distance of what a panga will go, it is possible to catch all species our waters offer. It would be helpful to understand that the tackle and gear aboard a panga is not going to be the quality of what is found aboard a larger cruiser or yacht. Sometimes this can affect the results and sometimes, because ‘fishing is fishing’ anything is possible!

A good variety of fish were caught, released, and boated this period. The unusual catch of YellowTail is a good continued indication of what is ‘not typical’ for this calendar time. Guests reported excellent efforts by crews despite a few skunked boats.
