| Not all animals with the word fish in their names count as fish. |
| Though their names may suggest otherwise, cuttlefish, starfish, and jellyfish aren’t actually fish. Generally-speaking, fishes must have skulls, gills, and fins. Surprisingly, though, not all fishes have proper spines. |

| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

Now into to a new month, weather patterns continues to be slightly cooler than during a normal
year, transition period is taking longer than we would expect. It has been a slow process
waiting for water conditions to warm and clean up, as well as for winds to become less of a
factor. At this time the ocean water temperature has ranged from 72 to 74 degrees. Clarity has
fluctuated, it seems just as we see blue water moving in there is a setback as currents push in
off colored currents again. Conditions can change very quickly at this time of year, so as days
become progressively warmer we expect to see offshore surface action pick up accordingly.
The main offshore species now has been the striped marlin, these billfish are striking on
trolled lures and on cast or dropped back baits, mainly caballito at this time. The marlin are
being found scattered throughout the zone, at times as close as a few miles from shore. They
became a bit more finicky during the recent the full moon, as well as with fluctuating
conditions, though most charters are having at least a chance or two while targeting these
fish, with some accounting for multiple catches. Not many dorado were seen in recent days
compared to last week when we did see a few of them.
Only an occasional yellowfin tuna were being found, these tuna were taken while drift fishing
with bait on grounds from Iman to Vinorama, the fish we did see ranged to over 80 lb. So they
are still in the area, just need the conditions to improve a bit more to their liking. Also a
handful of wahoo were seen on these same grounds, but they were very shy to striking any
offerings.
The most common catches have been various species found off the rock structure, such as bonito,
cabrilla, red snapper, fortune jack, amberjack, yellowtail, triggerfish and others. Anglers
reported mixed success depending on which area they targeting and how favorable the conditions
were on a given day.
Along the shore the best action we saw was reported from areas to the south of Puerto Los
Cabos, nice sized sierra were accounted for, some as large as 13 lb., also a mix of jacks and
of course more triggerfish.
Good fishing, Eric
