6646, Just back from Cabo
Posted by zacharooni, Thu Jun-27-02 08:28 AM
Well I spent the last week in Cabo and wish I had good news. I went out 3 days and managed 1 roosterfish. The only boats catching any fish at all are the ones who can go pretty far out and find the warm water. I go to Cabo around this time every year and this is the coldest the water I have ever seen during this time of year(mid 50's). A funny story, well seeing that I stayed at Plaza Las Glorias and had a perfect view of the new gas dock I would spend my afternoons watching all of the fishing boats coming in dropping people off than refueling. It was so funny some of the boats would come in with 0 flags and leave with 4 after gassing up. I knew this happend on some boats but I guess when the fishing is this slow they do it even more and more. I just made me so mad x( They charge these people including me tons of money for these charters and they totally lie to people. Maybe I am just a little bitter because I spent $900 over 3 days to watch someone else reel in a roosterfish either way if you are going down wait till the water warms up a bit. I probably talked to people from 15 boats over the week and none of them had more than 2 fish and 60% of them were skunked. Like I said before the Pangas werent coming back with anything and a total waste of money in my view. The Dorado bite was the hottest if you call it that. I did talk to a guy in the airport when I left who fished in Laredo for the week and killed em. Striped Marlin, YFT, Dorado. I guess I picked the wrong week at the wrong place. Sure makes you cherish the other trips of years past....
