Memorial day and the week preceding it delivered the kind of fishing that locals have beenhoping for since April Fool's day. The conditions right now are a fisherman's dream. It is also a skipper's dream. And the fly fishing is excellent as well.

Chris "Smokedoggydogg" Moyers of Reel Scoop wrote, "This week was all about quality over quantity amigos!" Mark Rayor, Jen Wren Sportfishing, "The Sea of Cortez has just erupted and anglers are finding they have their hands full." John Ireland, Rancho Leonero Hotel, "These are the kind of weekly reports I enjoy writing!" and Jeff De Brown, Reel Baja, "It's On!!"

So what's up? Offshore: Yellowfin tuna...big and plenty. Dorado and sargasso seaweed are the winning recipe for the best dorado bite of the year, or maybe the past three. All the billfish seen this last month have finally decided to bite.

Inshore: Roosterfish, jacks, pompano, ladyfish and sierra have been on the rampage.

The past few days no matter where you wanted to fish, whether it be the beach, inshore or offshore, your odds of catching fish has been remarkably good.
