FAIR SPORTFISHING ACTION IN UNFAVORABLE WEATHER CONDITIONS

Jan. 29, 2004, Gary Graham, Baja On The Fly, Magdalena Bay, Mexico Fishing Report:

Weather, including some rain, kept most of the Magdalena Bay fishing fleet close to home. Only fair fishing reported at the Magdalena Bay entrada on the good days. A few small yellowtail and grouper were the best anyone could come up with. The Magdalena Bay esteros above Puerto Lopez Mateos produced fair action for small sierra and a few grouper.

Magdalena Bay locals continue their preparations for the upcoming annual celebration of the whales, Festival Ballena Gris, Feb. 12. Magdalena Bay sea surface temperatures were 69-75 degrees. Air temperatures were 64-71 degrees. Conditions were clear.
