| 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. |

Los Cabos is busy, with the International Airport seeing large crowds of tourists arriving,
strange deal is that the a high percentage of these visitors are not anglers, so local
sportfishing fleets are only moderately busy. Weather is now great, clear skies with highs of
about 90 degrees, there are a couple of tropical low pressure areas hundreds of miles to the
south now brewing, but neither are forecast to develop into much or to impact the Southern Baja
Peninsula. Swells have been increasing, as is normal for this time of year, we are seeing lots
of surfers, winds were laid down for most of the week, though over the weekend the breeze from
the south did pick up some. Ocean water temperature has been in the 76 to 80 degree range in
the direction of San Jose del Cabo and further north.
Anglers are now relying on sardinas, caballito and mullet for their bait options, offshore
options for billfish have also included ballyhoo. There has been good action found offshore
near the 95 and 1150 spots, main catch has been striped marlin, though a few dorado and
yellowfin tuna are being found near these same grounds. The striped marlin are striking on a
mix of lures and various baitfish.
Water clarity has been clearing up closer to shore and this week there were some yellowfin tuna
found around the Iman Bank, not a lot of fish, but a handful were accounted for, weights ranged
up to 100 lb. So we do anticipate this tuna bite to become more consistent as weather
continues to stabilize as we near summer season. Other options for tuna has been further
offshore, 30 to 50 miles out, finding pods of porpoise and tuna have been moving amongst them,
though this option was out of range for normal charters.
Still the most consistent action overall has been coming from the rocky high spots closer to
shore, where anglers were using a mix of yo-yo jigs and baits to find a wide variety of quality
eating bottom species. Most common fish were the bonito, red and yellow snapper, leopard
grouper, amberjack, spotted rose snapper, surgeon fish, pompano and triggerfish.
Along the shoreline some nice sized late season sierra are still being found, along with jack
crevalle and some roosterfish, even though we are seeing more mullet moving into local waters,
we have not seen a large run of roosterfish as of yet, that is normally something we have more
the second half of the month of June.
Good Fishing, Eric
