San Jose del Cabo
Anglers –
July 14, 2019
Now in the midst of the summer season
we are progressively feeling warmer
conditions and increased humidity. High
temperatures around 90 degrees,
quite a few tropical clouds earlier in
the week, burning off with the heat
of the day. Ocean water temperatures
are now ranging from 76 to 86 degrees,
warmest area offshore and towards Los
Frailes. Swift currents sweeping in
and causing off colored green
conditions sporadically in isolated
areas,
changing daily, but no cold water now,
80 degrees all the way to the Golden
Gate Banks on the Pacific. Steady
southern swells push in this time of
year, surfers from all over the world
arrive, in recent days 5 to 6 foot
swells were common. Winds were
variable, swirling from north, east and
south, creating rolling seas,
especially later in the day.
There have already been several named
tropical storm systems follow paths
out west, presently there is a low
pressure system moving off to the west,
located several hundred miles from
southern Baja, is not forecast to make
any impact on land, just a bit more
tropical feeling.
Live bait available has been the same
now for the past month, caballito,
moonfish, mullet, ballyhoo and slabs of
squid. On the offshore grounds
there are increased schools of small
skipjack and bolito moving in and
these always can make good bait option
for larger gamefish species.
The warmer water has also brought in
larger marlin, in recent days we have
heard of daily reports of blue marlin
being hooked into, at least one of
about 240 lb. was landed and others to
over 400 lb. were battled and broken
off. Still some striped marlin in the
area, but most of them are now closer
to Southern California searching for
cooler water and their preferred
mackerel food source.
Early in the week anglers found a small
grade of football sized yellowfin
tuna spread out in open water around
the San Luis Bank, trolling small
hoochies produced scattered results,
time of year we see these small tuna
show. Only a few yellowfin tuna to 50
lb. were reported this week, so far
nothing going on larger cows being
seen, the next several weeks is when
things change rapidly and we would
expect to see schools of larger
yellowfin tuna move on to local
grounds. No wahoo reported, only a
handful
of dorado reported, the majority small
sized and being released.
Off the bottom there was on and off
action for red snapper, amberjack,
leopard grouper and bonito. Anglers
used yo-yo type jigs, as well as
various baits. This is the month when
we normally see the largest amberjack
of the season, this week we weighed in
a 83 lb. amberjack for angler Eric
Chen, from Las Vegas, he fished with
skipper Chuy on the super panga
Fortuna. We have not seen the run of
dogtooth snapper develop yet, this is
peak time for them.
Along the shore there is scattered
action for jack crevalle and
roosterfish
to over 40 lb., though we have not
really seen a significant big run of
these fish this year.
*T*he combined sportfishing fleet
launching out of the panga area from
Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out an
estimated 69 charters for the week and
anglers reported an approximate fish
count of: 7 striped marlin, 3 blue
marlin, 8 dorado, 24 yellowfin tuna, 3
broomtail grouper, 14 leopard
grouper, 95 Mexican bonito, 52 red
snapper, 6 yellow snapper, 19
amberjack,
30 roosterfish, 38 jack crevalle and 45
triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
