The month of February is finally over, it definitely lived up to its
reputation of being unpredictable, we saw a little bit of everything these
past few weeks. Glad that it is past, we are feeling a slight warming trend
as spring time nears, ocean temperature now in the 68 degree range, as
north winds continue to pick up in cycles. Clarity of water is also up and
down, this is how it often is during this time frame. Still only limited
numbers of tourists arriving, even less anglers, though we anticipate times
will improve, as many people in the U.S. and elsewhere now have had their
Covid 19 vaccinations or will be having them soon and then will be more
open for making travel plans.
Most fishing action now has taken place from Chileno, Palmilla, Gordo Banks
and north to Vinorama. Bait netters are having trouble finding supplies of
sardinas, the main bait source has been caballito, a lot of yo-yo style jig
fishing going on now.
Drift fishing over the rocky grounds, more often in 120 to 200 feet of
water, with available bait, but more so on yo-yo jigs. Main catch by far
has been the bonito, some of them up to 8 lb., hitting best earlier in the
morning. Same areas were producing a variety of grouper, snapper, cabrilla,
yellowtail and amberjack, limited numbers, but quality fish. Some charters
would have up to three four yellowtail, sizes up to 25 lb., majority of
these yellows came from areas further north near Vinorama.
Closer to shore anglers found sierra, pargo and triggerfish. Heard a couple
of reports of seeing dorado or wahoo, uncommon to see these gamefish in
such cold water.
No local billfish bite being reported, as conditions improve we expect to
see more striped marlin move in. We did hear of a couple reports of
swordfish sightings from sportfishers searching further offshore.
A handful of smaller sized yellowfin tuna were brought in, fishing the same
local grounds, also there were sightings of much larger yellowfin, up to
150 lb., coming up for a quick showing on the surface and then disappearing
even quicker, they are in the area, though cold off colored water and full
moon does not help.
Good fishing, Eric
