Gooood Morrrning Sea of Cortez!
It looks like this is the pivotal week in East Cape weather changing from winter to spring. Air temperature has risen and north winds have calmed. Wind surfers and kite boarders had an excellent winter but are now packing it up. Traditionally Semana Santos (Easter Sunday) is the last blow of the season.
It is interesting that through the hard winter fishing remained good on days boats were able to get out. Striped marlin and dorado were on the menu continuously. Late January brought a few yellowtail and the morning bite has just continued to get better.
Some days getting live bait has been easy but when the humbolt squid come up over the 1,000 foot edge near by the fin bait disappears. Yo-yoing iron has been very effective getting the yellowtail to go when getting bait is tough.
Just a bit further off shore tailing striped marlin are being sighted in packs from south of Los Frailes to north of Pescadero. I also received a report that a friend of ours fished the Pacific side from Cabo yesterday and limited on Yellowfin tuna.
The East Cape, Sea of Cortez and southern Baja is heating up.
Chango's smile tells the tale. These tails were taken on live macks 2 miles off the beach of Buena Vista
Andres is Chango's great grandson. You can't get kids fishing too early
Jen Wren crew cashed in
Hummingbird update. Mama started on her nest the first week in February on the Jen Wren III bow pulpit. Her two eggs hatched March 1st and from the size of a jellybean the baby birds out grew the nest in 10 days. Last Sunday they flew the coop.
We installed a feeder close by with organic honey. I like to think it helped the mother bird and speeded the process and growth of the little birds. Now we are ready to rumble! Jen Wren III is getting wet this weekend.
Right place right time. I captured this shot of an osprey flying over our deck and posted it on Jen Wren Sportfishing Facebook page. It has had an unbelievable 18,000 views.
