An update on the fishing report. There's a little bit of a lot of different stuff going on right now, none of it very concentrated, all of it hopeful in the near run. As the water temps warm the yellow tail bite has dropped off, and it might be that the upcoming full moon is the last solid opportunity to take yellow tail this year. We've gotten some 10+lb. cabrilla this year so that might be worth some time trolling Rapala's up to the north end of Cerralvo. The pargo lisa are in, but not being hit hard as the nearest supply of sardines is half way up the island. The buoys are starting to show billfish and dorado but are maybe a little too far away for the amount of fish. The first marlin came from the south point today, so that means that that will start up. Commercial guys poked 3-4 wahoo last week in the same south point area so that is sitting on the edge as well. We're clearly in the time of year where we change from winter/spring fish to summer fish, but we're still kinda sittin' with one foot on the dock and one on the boat. This means if you don't make good/lucky choices about where to go you might get skunked, and even if you're in the right place you're not liable to score big, but you might get some nice variety. This will all snap into focus shortly, maybe as soon as the upcoming moon, but........ that's what makes it fishing my friends.
