Fishing continues to be difficult for the billfish in the offshore waters and dorado seems to be the action leader for most of the boats, usually resulting in 1 or 2 fish per day. While the boats are still seeing stripers throughout the area, the fish are not at all interested in the baits or the lures. Overall catches for 39 fishing days reflected 4 stripers released, 26 yellowfin tuna, 71 dorado, 1 roosterfish, 6 yellowtail and 8 giant squid.

Cabo Climate: Mostly sunny & warm days, temps from 66 nights to upper 80s during the days.

Sea Conditions: Cool on the Pacific side, down to 67-68, with the plume running northwest to southeast and about 10 miles wide, on a line from the Finger Bank to 40 miles below Cabo. On both sides of the cooler water the temp rises rapidly to 72-74 degrees.

Best Fishing Area: No concentration of billfish and the dorado are mostly in the 4-6 mile offshore areas, from Chileno to Destiladeras on the Sea of Cortez side.

Best Lure/Bait: Live bait was best for the dorado and the few marlin that were taken were also on live bait. Tuna primarily on the tuna feathers.

Live Bait Supply: Remained good with a mix of mackerel and caballitos
