March begins with good fishing on both sides of the peninsula

As March begins we are currently experiencing good fishing on both sides of the peninsula.We have seen good weather on the Sea of Cortez side giving boats a chance to fish for the decent numbers of dorado and marlin we are currently experiencing. Depending on how you look at it these fish are arriving early or have stayed late. In either case they are here and anglers continue to have good success.

The dorado have been very nice size with the average fish being about twelve to fifteen pounds with a few even larger. The marlin have been active as well giving most boats at least one hookup if not multiple each day.

we also have a few yellowtail in the area. Most of them have been caught on light line conventional tackle with jigs. Most of them have been on average about fifteen pounds. We have been finding them off the banks in La Ribera as well as to our North in the waters around the island.

Over on the pacific side the inshore fishing has been good for rooster fish as well as sierra and the occasional school of jacks. We did see some good swells this past week but that didn’t seem to bother the fish . A little further offshore the marlin and dorado continue to bite as well as good action for skip jack tuna.

The season is off to a good start. We will be fishing the next week out of Cabo for most of the week. Be sure to check back here to see the latest fishing conditions and updates. Until next week we wish everyone great fishing.
