IN GENERAL: Fast-paced action from the Thetis Bank down toward Santa Maria Bay
continues its red hot pace. Lots of fish in the teasers and plenty of double digit counts reported by the few boats in the area. Wahoo also showing up in the pattern enough to play havoc with the teasers. Plenty of action for estero (estuary) aficionados with plenty of corvina hitting everything from poppers to sub-surface flies. A few snook hooked, but lost. Rounding out the species list were pompano, jacks and lots of cabrilla to keep Pudge Kleinkauf's group smiling and raring to go in the morning.

IN GENERAL: From two to 10 miles outside the entrada all the way up to the Thetis Bank, football-size tuna are thick. Wahoo at the shark buoys 240° - 270° 14 miles out mixed in with dorado. Zack Thomas, Pacific Coast Sportfishing editor, reported the marlin at Thetis were unbelievably thick. Several other yachts transiting to Cabo also reported excellent fishing from above the Thetis to seven miles off of the anchorage at Santa Maria Bay. Inside the bay, the same yachts were complaining about how tough the mackerel fishing was. Esteros yielded good leopard grouper catches to go along with the continued corvina bite. The old standby spotted bay bass were there for the taking. I am headed there next week to fish with Anchorage guide Pudge Kleinkauf and her group for four days, so stay tuned. She always comes up a winner.

IN GENERAL: One for the money, two for the show, the Thetis Bank pileup begins. One local boat reported multiple marlin strikes and releases as well as wahoo and dorado. Back closer to the entrada on a 240„a heading 17-20 miles, among the shark buoys, one boat reported triples on the wahoo and dorado. At the entrada, yellowtail were on the chew and even biting the fly. Back at Belcher¡¦s there was a pretty good halibut bite (I know halibut, marlin, wahoo and dorado in the same report is pretty weird.) The esteros seemed to have awakened as well with corvina, pompano and mucho bay bass.

IN GENERAL: After all the recent Chubasco smack downs, let the sun shine in! That was the tune heard most often this week. Jess Telles, Visalia, Calif. (in the San Joaquin Valley) had a big smile on his face as he slid into a tuna stop in front of Cabo Pulmo that wouldn’t quit. By the time the scales settled he had racked up an impressive even dozen mixed yellowfin and bonito on the cast. Our See Thru Deceivers did the trick for him. The next day, he opted for a shot at billfish and wasn’t disappointed. Well, maybe a little. He connected twice, but both time the fly came out before he could bring them to the boat. I’ll bet he will be back soon to even that score. The arroyos continue to flow, but are passable.

o OFFSHORE: A few blues, stripers and sails providing the best action. Few tuna to be found.
o INSHORE: Still pretty dirty water with a few jacks and roosters beginning to show again.
o BEACH: After all the storms it is very hard to even get around. Lots of flowing arroyos to deal with. Best bet is to fish the edges.
BILLFISH – A few blues and stripers to go along with a good sailfish bite.
YELLOWFIN TUNA – Best action was at Cabo Pulmo.
DORADO – Better than it’s been, but not what we had hoped it would be by now.
ROOSTERFISH – Bubba among the missing, small ones are at the edges of the arroyos.
JACK CREVALLE – A few smaller ones in front of Punta Colorada.
BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK – Cabo Pulmo holding a few.
PARGO AND CABRILLA - Slow.
SIERRA – A few here and there. |

IN GENERAL: The threat of Nora managed to keep most of the boats inside the bay for most of the week. The threat’s gone just in time as a few trailer boats began to arrive for Fall offshore pileup. Won't be long before the Southern California transiting yachts will begin to arrive. Based on the reports so far, it should be a good season. Back up in the esteros the action has been spotty since few boats have been fishing this week. A few reports of plenty of bait being seen near Devil's Curve. We still have a few slots opened for our Magdalena Bay Estero Sampler call Yvonne for more information 800 919 2252. http://www.bajafly.com/Pudgemag03/

Thurs., Oct. 02, 2003 Report covers the period Sat.-Thurs. (9/27 - 10/02)
IN GENERAL: The buzz continues to be the offshore action, which seems to be improving daily. Dorado, more striped marlin every day and reports of tuna farther out sound enticing. Most of the action is on a 240 - 270° heading from the entrada beginning at about 7 miles and out as far as 25. At the entrada, bird schools point the way for both the yellowtail and skipjack feeding on the surface. As the surface temperatures continue to climb it should only get better.

IN GENERAL: Sounds like most of the activity involved either fishing for shrimp or cleaning up in the aftermath of Hurricane Marty. Shrimp trawlers have shown up from the mainland and are scooping up the tasty crustaceans on the outside of Santa Maria Island. Yellowtail with a few white seabass are under the bird schools in the same area. The pinnacles in the middle of the entrance to Santa Maria Bay are holding a few grouper and if you are lucky, an occasional yellowtail. Again this week little action to report up in the esteros because of a lack of anglers, not fish.

IN GENERAL: Fishing is great! That’s the answer I heard when I made my Tues. night call to pangero Enrique in Puerto San Carlos. What about Marty? I asked. “We had lots of rain and wind,” Enrique continued, “but Sunday we caught yellowtail, grouper and halibut at the entrada.” There were lots of dorado at the shark buoys about 7 miles out on a 240° heading from the entrada, out a bit further were lots of jumping marlin and
10 miles further were schools of tuna. Back in the bay, the focus continued on commercial fishing for shrimp. There was some flooding and damage at Lopez
Mateos and Ciudad Constitucion.

MAGDALENA BAY, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
Sat., September 20, 2003 Report covers the period Wed.-Fri. (9/17 - 9/19)
IN GENERAL: Shark buoys strung out in a westerly direction from the Entrada are holding dorado. Up closer to the Thetis the tuna take over. A few marlin spotted by the boats traveling from spot to spot. Still a few yellows under the bird schools at the Entrada. Here, “Marty” is being watched closely as it meanders up the coast.

IN GENERAL: Six miles = dorado, 10 miles = stripers, and further some yellowfin tuna. The pinnacles south of the entrada continue to yield grouper and even an occasional yellowtail. With light pressure (remember, the shrimp season is now open) Devil’s Curve came alive with a few smaller snook, pargo and even the corvina joined in. If it was chartreuse it got bit.

Report covers the period Wed.-Fri. (9/10 - 9/12)
IN GENERAL: You can tell it is Sept. and shrimp season is open in Magdalena Bay. All the locals want to tell me about shrimping. There are very few doing real fishing, but here goes. Want dorado? As they say, Go West, about six to eight miles should do. If you start seeing some jumping marlin, you have probably gone too far. Plenty of tuna for sashimi to be had closer to the Thetis Bank as well as a few yellows on the pinnacles. Speaking of pinnacles, there is one about a mile south of the entrada that has been producing some nice-sized broomtail grouper if you get deep enough. Back up in the esteros, it must be good because there was no pressure from the locals. Last week, a school of yellows showed up – are you ready for this? – at the pier! It was wide open for a short time while creating quite a buzz in sleepy San Carlos.

IN GENERAL: Esteros are beginning to percolate and can be rewarding for those who are willing to put in their time. There’s plenty of spotted bay bass to fill in the time between exotic bites which will come to the patient fly-fisher. Further out in the

Report covers the period Sat.-Tues. (8/9 - 8/12)
IN GENERAL: Probably one of the coolest places to be in Baja right now both from a weather and a fishing perspective. Yellows continue to snap at the entrada. Estero plunking is providing great sport with a mixed bag including snook, leopard grouper, pargo and a few pompano rising to the challenge which is usually a chartreuse Baja Deep Diver that lands in their face. Be sure to try the bridge at the entrance to town, Los Barriles estero (estuary) and Devil’s Curve. For best results, spread out, explore and mix well.

IN GENERAL: Beginning to feel more like summer in the bay. Outside is still
cold water and high seas. While the stock spots are producing fair catches, this
is the time of year to devote some of your time to exploring. With over 130

Subject: Commercial Nets Nail Snook
Report covers the period Wed.-Fri. (5/21-5/23)
IN GENERAL: Sounds like the commercial fisherman are scooping ‘em up in the
surf on the east side of Santa Maria Bay reportedly some snook to 50-pounds.
What a shame! Those fish are way too valuable a resource to catch only once,
additionally, they are the brood stock. Devil's Curve produced good catches of corvina
and a few smaller snook.

Subject: And the Snook Came Out to Play
Report covers the period Sat.-Tues. (5/17-20)
IN GENERAL: After two days of so-so fishing, the California DeKaye group got a glimpse of what Magdalena Bay is all about. Alex Lidow, Hermosa Beach, landed his largest snook ever. Fortunately, he hooked it a 100-yards from the mangroves and managed to keep it from getting back up in the roots on the two runs that went deep into the backing. The monster took a See Thru Deceiver with an olive back and didn't want to return it. After a 20-minute epic battle, Alex brought it close enough to get a net under it. Several quick photos later it was back in the greenish waters of Magdalena Bay. Our pangero, Enrique, swore that it was every bit of 30-pounds and believe me, everybody was smiling and high-fiving as if they had won the Indy 500. Later the same day Charles Kittrell, Carmel, caught a leopard grouper on a flash Clouser that demonstrated what a bad attitude they have. That third day made believers out the group and they are already planning their next Baja Adventure in Magdalena Bay.

Report covers the period Wed.-Fri., (5/14-5/16)
IN GENERAL: (Note: Sorry, report is limited because of communications problems and a down e-mail server.) We’re fishing the esteros with a group from Northern California, Chuck Dekay, his son Deke, Alex Lido and Charles Kittrell. We’ve had a few shots at the elusive snook, but so far nobody has hung one. Spotted bay bass continue to brighten our days along with an occasional pompano, small jack and corvina. Mornings continue to be a tad foggy, but when the sun breaks through it looks like a French impressionist painting.

IN GENERAL: Beginning with Devil’s Curve and working back down to Puerto San Carlos produced a mixed bag yesterday (5/12) with a few small snook, jacks, pompano, corvina and a couple of grouper providing enough action to keep the clients busy. I will be in San Carlos later today to meet four clients that will be fishing for the next three days. This is my first visit since Jan. and I can't wait. We will be doing some exploring in some rumored hot spots and I will fill you in on Sat.

Subject: Serious Snook Reported
Report covers the period Sat.-Tues. (4/26-4/29)
IN GENERAL: Rumors abound of some serious snook action down Puerto Chale way. For the last month I have been hearing stories of Grande Snook being caught. One monster that was verified weighed 37 pounds. Nobody is talking specifics, so I think I will go check out myself in a week or two. If you can get there, Thetis Bank has had a fair yellowtail snap with an occasional dorado showing up. The esteros around Puerto San Carlos have not been producing much to talk about this week, which can be attributed to few anglers trying.

Report covers the period Sat.-Tues. (4/19-4/22)
IN GENERAL: Cold and windy are not my favorite words to begin a report, but that's the fact. The good news is May is coming and it will warm up. In re-reading what I just wrote, I realized that our “cold and windy” might be your warm and balmy, so on with the report: Grande halibut again this week; and that is a relative term as well but, a 15-pound halibut in Baja is large. Offshore, the seas were rough and the locals stayed close to home. Up in the esteros there were a few corvina, grouper and maybe a snook if you worked hard.

Report covers the period Wed.-Fri. (4/16-4/18)
IN GENERAL: Sounds like plenty of dorado are under many of the shark buoys on a
240° line extending out 35-miles. Also, schools of yellowtail up on Thetis with a
few dorado mixed in. The problem is the Pacific has been pretty grumpy for the past few weeks and makes it pretty tough to get out where the fish are. Back at the entrada, the water is full of langostia and has essentially shut off the bite. The best bet is in the esteros with a fair bite for corvina, grouper and a few snook. Big tides and strong currents should subside next week making it even better.

Please note the date. We are only providing weekly (not twice-a-week) reports for this area.
Sat., April 19, 2003 Report covers the period Wed.-Fri. (4/16-4/18)
IN GENERAL: Even though the 80º blue water has moved out a bit, and despite
the full moon, the fishing has been very good.
A lot of tuna are being caught with most of them in the 30- to 35-pound class. Blaine Burnette of Bakersfield, Calif., fishing with Luis on the panga “Gringo Loco,” scored the biggest yellowfin with an estimated 230-pounder. The two speed Shimano 30 reel and 760 Calstar rod helped to make it a catchable fish, despite the 5-1/2 hour battle on 60-pound Izoreline.
Bruce Marshal and 11 year old son Nick, from Aliso Viejo, Calif., fished with Santiago on the panga “Gitana.” They released two sailfish and took 8 tuna in the 25- to 35-pound class. Bruce told me it was so wide open, they could have taken another 10 tuna if they had stayed a little longer, but his son kind of “wore out.” (At least that is the excuse he gave me. I kind of think Bruce was a little worn out also.)
One day Captain Ruben on the “Yellowfin” did not have a client, so he and a couple of friends went out for their own sport, and to possibly find the big tuna. They ended with 12 yellowfin from 35- to 60-pounds.
Adolpho on the panga “Dos Hermanos,” fishing with a client from France, told me
the roosterfish action is fantastic. At one point they got into a school of roosters busting a ball of bait. They were all huge fish and his client managed to catch and release three fish out of the school before they broke up. The roosters were all in the 40-pound class.
