REPORT #1043 “Below the Border” Saltwater Fly-Fishing reports since 1996
Endless Season Update 12/30/06
East Cape
Looks like New Year’s at East Cape may be more Bowl games, parades and partying than fishing unless the wind cooperates.
The past few days have been pleasant with light winds. With the leftover surf from the wind, the beach and inshore has been tough. If there is going to be any action it is early . . . early and the bite only lasts a short time after sunrise. Sierra, ladyfish, small jacks and an occasional rooster make up the catch list if you are lucky. On the other hand, being able to walk a beach in late December with flyrod in hand beats cold, rainy weather any day!
On the flat days a few marlin and dorado are still being found a few miles off of Punta Pescadero.

Diana Hoyt reported that the extraordinary offshore action for both dorado and striped marlin remained consistent until the weather went sideways. The “Raptor’s” Captain Rueben Duran found good fly rod action outside the entrada for wahoo and further out the dorado continued to be thick. Even with the cooler water temperatures there were ample marlin found under the bird schools. As they worked their way up to the Thetis they had double digit shots on the fly. Strong wind and high seas later in the week forced boats back inside. Can’t wait to see what happens next week after the front passes by.
With the poor weather on the outside The esteros offered a fall-back, providing good action for pargo, grouper and lots of small sierra.

The 82° blue water is still close, but most of the best fishing is taking place at about the 25 mile mark. And, the fishing for sailfish has been good, with most boats averaging two or three fish a day. Plus, each day yields one or two 20-pound class dorado for each boat.
Ludo, from Belgium, finished up his week of fishing with Martin on the panga “Isamar” with a bang. On Ludo's last day, they released 7 sails, and took 2 nice dorado.
Fly fishing client, John Wexler, fished with guide Paul Phillips and Martin on the “Isamar” one day. They raised 5 sails and hooked two.
Dan Britt, of North Carolina, fished one day with me down at Puerto Vicente Gro. We were targeting roosters on the flyrod. Dan hooked two roosters, and one large jack crevalle. But, he was snake bit, and lost all three
