FISHING VACATION ACTIVITY SLOW DURING EASTER WEEK

March 26, 2005, Gary Graham, Baja On The Fly, Magdalena Bay, Mexico Fly Fishing Report:

Easter celebrations brought recreational fishing to a standstill in Mexico's Magdalena Bay vacation area this week.

Outside the Magdalena Bay boca, it was Victory at Sea conditions. Even up in the esteros, the wind ripped most of the week keeping the few fisherman there close to home base. While there were a few halibut and corvina caught, sportfishing was for pretty slim pickings. Magdalena Bay water temperatures were 69-75 degrees, and air temperatures were 62-71 degrees, with scattered clouds.
