Tip&Trick Description 1:
Simple Stowage of StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever for more deck Space.
Most pole type lure retrievers are thick, bulky and rigid. StrikeBack is made of 1.5 metre fibreglass rods able to be connected together, each 8 or 10 mm in diameter, depending on the version.
Once you have your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever at the boat; loctite the first two sections and slide the retriever in the gunwale rail on many aluminium boats, or attach a length of conduit along the inside of the boat. Your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever is now stowed neatly as it has flexiblity to fit the contour of your the hull. Deck space is valuable, keep it clear. |

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT MAY 9-15, 2004
WEATHER: All right, we do have the summer weather with the days in the high 80’s and low 90’s and the nights in the mid 70’s, but this week we also started out with spring winds! It seemed that every day at the beginning of the week the wind started blowing around 10 or 11 in the morning and blew all day and night, not letting up until around daybreak. At the end of the week it finally let up and this weekend it was very nice with just slight breezes. No rain, of course, but lots of sun!
WATER: We started this week being wrapped with a band of cold water that came down the Pacific coast and decided to stay for a while. This water ran from 62-66 degrees and extended from that Pacific up by the Golden Gate to the Cortex up by Palmilla and off shore as far as 15 miles to the southwest of the Cape. The rest of the Pacific was an even 70 degrees while the Cortez had a warm 73-74 degree band of water about 15 miles out. At the end of the week the warm water on the Sea of Cortez side had managed to push the cold water back to the Pacific and we had that warm water only 10 miles off shore while there was a finger of water in the 77 degree ranged working its way toward us from up around Punta Gorda. The water displaced by the warm current worked its way out toward the San Jaime and Golden Gate banks and it was not until you got to them that the water got warmer than 67 degrees on the Pacific side. The surface conditions on the Pacific were pretty rough all week due to the steady winds, and the swells were fair sized, but the Sea of Cortez was not too bad in the mornings.
BAIT: We have had a good mix of both Caballito and Mackerel this week, with most of the Caballito fairly small but with some nice big Mackerel available. The normal price at $2 per bait.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: While not as red-hot as last weeks bite, the Striped Marlin were still out there this week! Most of the action moved to either the San Jaime Banks, right along the eastern edge where there was a temperature break, the southern side of the 95 spot where the same thing occurred or up the Sea of Cortez toward the Gorda Banks and Punta Gorda. That cold water that came down the Pacific coast forced the fish out of the immediate area but they were still within range for a full day trip. Live bait was the favorite and either drifting with it or tossing it to tailing fish resulted in pretty good action. A few of the boats were able to get into the action and I saw as many as five Marlin flags on one boat for a day’s trip.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: Almost a repeat of last weeks report as far as Yellowfin are concerned, but there was one day, Wednesday, when a school of nice fish showed up and a few were caught. For the most part the Yellowfin this week were small fish and there were not a lot of them. The nice fish showed up at the southern end of the San Jaime and there were four lucky boats there at the time. The largest fish that I actually saw caught was #141 and there were others in the 80-90 pound range hooked, but the Captains said there were a lot of big fish in the #150 to #250 range jumping clear of the water. They were feeding heavily on squid and it took time and patience to hook up.
DORADO: Again, the report is the same as last weeks, with the Dorado being scattered around and not particularly concentrated. Finding floating debris was the key and there were some small kelp paddies on the Pacific side that had fish in the #15-#25 class under them. Live and cut bait worked well when the kelp was found.
WAHOO: A few more flags were flying this week and there were some happy anglers as a fair bite on Wahoo in the 40 pound class happened at the inner and outer Gorda Banks. The best bite was early and it was around the tide change. Marauders and Marlin lures worked well, and dark colors seemed to out produce the bright ones.
INSHORE: The cold water that wrapped around us had the Roosterfish bite drop off, but the Pargo took up the slack with some nice fish ranging from 15 to 30 pounds being found in among the rocks. Not much else was happening this week inshore except for an occasional bite by Yellowtail off the arch. Early in the morning or late in the afternoon on live bait seemed to be the best time and best bait.
NOTES: A new computer and DSL instead of dial-up! Almost like Christmas for us, this makes such a difference. This weeks report was written to the music of ZZ Top on the 1985 Warner release “Afterburner”. Until next week, Tight lines!
