WEEKLY FISH COUNT
STRIPED MARLIN: ONE FISH RELEASED (#140)
YELLOWFIN TUNA: ELEVEN FISH KEPT (#8-#45)
DORADO: TWO FISH KEPT (#25)
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 14 MARCH, 2004
Our friends Dave Reese (and family) and Hayden Knott (and family) are in town
again and Dave and Hayden went out on the “Fly Hooker” today. Last year Dave did
not have very much luck, nor did he the time before. Thank goodness they caught fish
today, Dave was beginning to think that the problem was him! Juan and Manuel went a
bit to the south this morning and at a distance of 22 miles found the fish. They were
the first boat there and that really helped as the later boats to the Porpoise did not have
any luck at all. Dave caught the largest Yellowfin and it was estimated at #45. That
was the second fish he reeled in and he was pretty tired in the arms after that one.
Hayden got more fish, three in all. All the fish were between #25 and #45, a very nice
total. Dave and Hayden both said it was a great day on the water and we were invited
to dinner to share the results. Thanks guys, we love you a lot and really look forward to
your visits! And Dave, Juan wanted me to thank you again for the insulated coffee
mugs!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 17 MARCH, 2004
Today we had the William Cook party on the “Fly Hooker” and thank goodness the
fishing has picked up! Juan and Manuel worked the area outside the 95 spot and
ended up doing pretty good. One of the reasons was finding a dead whale out there.
They were not the first boat to the spot, and Juan said they did not stay long as it was a
little crazy, but they did manage to pickup two out of three Dorado that bit. Live bait
was the key as the Dorado were feeding on the little fish picking at the carcass. Both
Dorado were in the #25 range. After leaving they got into porpoise that they worked for
well over an hour and ended up catching 4 small football Yellowfin Tuna. The next item
on the agenda was a Marlin and it took a bit longer to take care of that request, but
when things are going well...hey! One Striped Marlin baited, hooked and fought to the
boat for the placement of a tag and then released. The fish was estimated at #140 and
the fight took 35 minutes. A great day and the water conditions were perfect!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 18 MARCH, 2004
Today was booked two days ago while talking with some folks while sitting at
Tanga-Tanga eating one of the great cheeseburgers they sell there. Dan, Kim, Paul
and Patty only wanted to go for a half day, just a chance to get out on the water with a
chance to get dinner as well. Juan and Manuel worked the same area as yesterday for
Tuna and were able to get two little guys into the boat, just enough for dinner.
Everyone had a great time and enjoyed themselves, and that is what it’s all about,
right?
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 20 MARCH, 2004
Rob Callahan and his family along with his friend and family were on The “Fly
Hooker” today. They were really hoping for some action on fish for the kids, and Jan
and Manuel tried to get into Porpoise, but were only able to find Whales. Juan said
they saw over 20 Striped Marlin during the trip and had lure strikes from two of them,
but the fish did not stick. They also had one fish that tried to eat the live bait tossed at
it, but apparently the hook turned back into the bait and the Marlin failed to hook up.
The fish were out there, but just not really hungry. Perhaps tomorrow will be better?
Lets keep our fingers crossed!

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT MARCH 14-20, 2004
WEATHER: Once again the week started out a bit cloudy then cleared up at the end. It also
warmed up quite a bit! Today is the first day of spring and it feels like the middle of summer as
we had temperatures in the high 90’s yesterday. Our night time lows have risen to the high 60’s
as well and we have put away the comforters and plugged in the floor fans. The humidity has
stayed fairly low so we don’t have the muggy feeling we will get later in the summer, all in all it
has been a great week for good weather!
WATER: The cold water this week remained on the Pacific side of the Cape with the water
temps staying in the mid to high 60’s out to a distance of 15 to 25 miles. On the Cortez side, the
water was 72 to 75 degrees out to 30 miles and very blue. Once past that, the temps dropped to
71 and the color turned green. Of course all the fish have been in the warmer blue water! No
strong temp breaks this week, at least close enough for us to fish. The winds have been light and
that has meant great surface conditions, little swell and even less chop.
BAIT: Almost all the bait this week was small Caballito and they were the normal $2 per bait.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Finally! The water on the Cortez side warmed up to 72 degrees and turned blue
and all of a sudden the Striped Marlin started to show up again! There have been a lot of fish
showing up just inside and to the north of the 95 spot. It was not uncommon at the end of the
week to see at least a dozen Marlin on the surface at the end of the week, and there were times
when over two dozen were spotted during the course of a trip. Just because you see them does
not mean they are going to eat though! Dark colored lures and live bait were the best bets and
almost all the fish were found on the Cortez side.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: As the Marlin showed up and the moon got small, the Tuna became
harder to find, at least the nicer sized fish. Most of the fish being caught were footballs in the 6 to
12 pound size but there were occasions when the school fish popped up and crashed the lures. I
did not hear of many of the large fish caught this week though, nothing over 100 pounds. The
larger fish (#45-#80) were found on the Pacific side out around 20 miles and were associated
with Porpoise. On the Cortez side the fish were much smaller and still associated with the
Porpoise. Best bets were small dark colored feathers.
DORADO: A dead Whale was found on Wednesday, just past the 95 spot and that was the
source for most of the Dorado action this week. Almost every boat that worked the carcass on
Wednesday, and those that were able to find it again on Thursday were able to get at least a few
Dorado in the boat, and they were pretty nice fish as well. Other than that, the action was sparse
and scattered. Most of it was on the Cortez side as that was where the warmer water has been.
Live bait and bright colored lures were the keys to getting one of these great eating fish in the
boat.
WAHOO: Still few are far between, there were some caught this week off of the banks on the
Inner and Outer Gorda. A few were found out in the open as well, but we are just waiting for the
next full moon.
INSHORE: The Sierra bite continued to improve and the fish have increased in average size. A
lot of the Pangas were able to get into fish in the 10 pound class. One of the secrets to a good
Sierra catch this week appeared to be getting the lures (Rapallas or hootchies) down 15 feet or so.
A planer on a handline with a release clip sure did the trick for a few folks. Small Roosterfish have
been appearing now and then as well as some Amberjack.
NOTES: The warm water has moved in and the fishing has improved. Our fingers are crossed
that it continues to do so. Lets hope that the lights we are seeing a mile or two offshore at night
are just bait fishermen and not longliners setting lines at night, or we may be in for a long, slow
season. The Whale sightings are tapering off, not quite as many as there were last month. My
music for the weeks report was the incomparable Patsy Cline on the MCA 1988 release “12
Greatest Hits”. I rarely suggest a website for folks to check out, but I think I may start doing that
as well. As my choice this week, may I suggest that anyone who plays, or aspires to play any type
of guitar, from beginner to professional, look at www.guitarnoise.com Until next week, tight line
and good music!

ZIHUATANEJO, MAINLAND MEXICO
IN GENERAL: The 78ş blue water is only 6 miles off the beach, but the game fish do not seem to be here. Very few dorado and sailfish are being taken by the fleet each day.
The one exception is the blue marlin and the occasional large tuna. They both prefer the same water temperatures, eat the same sized bait, and the black skipjack tuna seem to be the targeted bait. The skippies are here in abundance. There was one day this week with four blue marlin being taken, and every day is accounting for at least 1. Most are being caught by slow trolling one of the large live baits.
Roosterfish action is also very slow in the surf lines, but this is normal for this time of the year.

It has been a while since I had the plaesure of posting a decent set of reports..bad weather for most of the winter has kept us at the dock and slow fishing has frustrated us on the days we got out..last week put an end to both..started off the week with grouper and tuna and fishinshed strong with the same..bad news is a few snapper were hungry for live bait and we had to release 8 back to the water with limited prospects for survival....the smallest 15 pounds and the largest pushing 40 pounds...arguably the largest red snapper I have ever seen and 5 weeks too early to brag on..the fish measured 38 inches total length and was probably 10-12 inches between the eyes..he had a mouthful of jewelry..the picture doesn't do it justice..and sadly thats seems to be the only good thing about landing it..you know the end result and it too frustrates me that we aren't allowed one incidental catch when we are targeting something else...after about 3 hours on Saturday catching 5 gag grouper from 10 - 46 pounds we headed foI the Lump..when we crossed into the bluewater..we had wished we had packed a few kayaks as the standing waves in the current topped 6 feet along the edge..made our way to the Lump with a wahoo spread with no luck..arrived 2 hours later with time to make one drift..picked up a blackfin with one minute of soak time..then two kings before the one we were looking for swirled on a bait..one hour later we had a 131# yellow in the boat..settled in for the bumpy ride in very happy that things turned out better than expected..Thursday we never made it to the tuna grounds but had plenty of fun with scamps, gag grouper and limits amberjack. Two of the scamps were over twenty pounds..Friday we had grouper and tuna all caught in the same place with the largest gag 30 pounds and the largest tuna 131# (the first of three tuna weigheing 131# to the ounce on 3 consecutive days). Capt. Sonny and Darryl went yesterday with two anglers finishing early with 3 gag grouper and two yellowfin weighing 75 and 131#...all fish have been taken using live goggle eyes which showed up strangely about a week ago..we have been catching the tuna drifting live baits or from a kite on anchor...
Back at it again tomorrow for more of the same... WEBSITE Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006

WEEKLY FISH COUNT
YELLOWFIN TUNA: THIRTEEN FISH KEPT (#15-#45)
DORADO: TWO FISH KEPT (#25)
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 8 MARCH, 2004
Greg and Vicky Cuddahy were our anglers today and really were looking forward to
getting into some fish. Of course it would have been nice to get a Marlin hooked up,
but so far this year it has been really slow for the Billfish. No Marlin for them, but they
were able to get some fish in the boat. Juan and Manuel took off to the west and
ended up about 28 miles out, just past the San Jaime Bank. There they found blue
water and lots of Porpoise. Guess what? Yep, there were Tuna in with those Porpoise!
All in all they managed to get 5 Tuna between #25 and #40 into the box, and lost a
couple more. Some good fillets to have smoked and frozen, plus some for a fresh fish
dinner! We sure are glad you had a good time, and hope to see you again.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 9 MARCH, 2004
Dan and LuAnne Foster fished on the “Fly Hooker” today, and the weather here sure
was a lot better than the cold in Anchorage! The fishing was not as good as yesterday,
and the wind started to pickup early, but they were able to get into the Tuna for a
quadruple strike, getting all four fish into the boat. LuAnne started to feel queasy so
they guys headed back towards the lighthouse where the water was a bit calmer. No
more fish were found, but there was fresh fish for dinner and some to get smoked.
Sorry that you got a bit sea sick LuAnne, but glad you had a good time!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 10 MARCH, 2004
The Onderick party chartered the “Fly Hooker” for a half day trip today. It was a late
start s they left at 8 AM and the fish that the boat had been finding were more than 25
miles out, a little too far to go on a half day trip. The reason for the short trip was that
three of the anglers had not been fishing before, and were not sure that they could
handle more than that time at sea. Juan and Manuel did find porpoise close to home,
around 12 miles out, and they worked them hard, trying almost everything they could
think of. All they ended up getting was one hook-up on a Bonito, and it fell off when
close to the boat. Nobody got sick though! Perhaps next time a full day will work for
them, or the fish will be closer.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 11 MARCH, 2004
Jim Pickens, his son Jason and friend Dr. Jack Thielen are fishing today and
tomorrow with Juan and Manuel. Jim is an outfitter in the Wyoming/Montana area and
asked if they needed would it be all right to stay out a little longer. No problem, just let
Juan and Manuel know. Well, the wind had started to blow pretty good yesterday and it
did not stop last night. The water was rough and the fish were far away. Juan and
Manuel finally got into the fish when they were 33 miles to the south. Porpoise were
there, and they go four Tuna, all of them around 25-40 pounds, and caught one #25
Dorado on a lure and another one the same size on live bait. It was a long, rough trip
back but they came in with fish and flags flying. Our fingers are crossed that they have
better luck, and better weather, tomorrow.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 12 MARCH, 2004
Jim and Jason Pickens were back this morning, but Dr. Jack was not feeling well. In
his place was Jarred Williams. Jim let us know this morning that he wanted to be back
in at 1 PM as he had scheduled golf for the afternoon. No problem! Juan and Manuel
went south again, but due to time constraints were only able to get 29 miles out before
having to turn around and return. No fish were found and there were no strikes during
the trip. Juan said that on the radio the fish were being caught 42 miles out, 10 miles
further than yesterday, but the water was even more rough today than yesterday. I
hope your golf game was better than the fishing! Thanks Jim, perhaps next time the
fish will be closer and the water better!

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT MARCH 7-13, 2004
WEATHER: Partly cloudy skies at the beginning of the week slowly gave way to clear skies,
but lots of wind as the week wound towards the end. On Wednesday the wind started to pick up
and blew all day and night, gusting as high as 20 knots, and coming from the northwest. This
continued for the rest of the week with the wind dying down here in town during the day, but still
blowing at sea. Our night time lows ranged from 52 degrees to 62 degrees and our daytime highs
were mostly in the mid 80’s.
.
WATER: The water temperatures this week ranged from 73 to 62 degrees, depending on the
day and the area. We have had a wrap of cold water at the Cape, and it started coming in from
the east on Monday. As the week progressed it bounced along the coast from San Jose and as of
today, it has wrapped around and runs up to as far as the Golden Gate Bank. It has been
followed by warmer water in the 71 degree area and that warm water now is as close as half way
between San Jose and us. This cold water (in the low 60’s) only extend off shore about 10 miles.
The defined warm/cold water break we had seen so strongly last week weakened and drifted
farther to the south.
BAIT: Almost all the bait this week was small Caballito and they were the normal $2 per bait.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: The Billfish bite this week was practically non existent, not at all the kind of action
we had been expecting for the month. A few Striped Marlin were caught, as well as a few
Swordfish, and of course there were more of both baited than caught, but the fish were scarce.
Perhaps one boat in 20 came in flying a Billfish flag this week.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: Fish of the month! maybe fish of the season as they are still there, only
farther away. Many of the fish being caught are nice school fish, in the 25-40 pound class, but
there have been a few a lot larger as well. The schools have been mixed, with large fish mixed in
with the smaller ones. I have been in the Porpoise and marked fish around 40 pounds around
40-50 feet deep, and down below them have seen marks for fish that have to have been at lease
100 pounds, but they were holding at 80-100 feet. Trying everything in the book, it is still hard to
get the big ones to bite, but the key has been patience. Eventually the fish will come up. Most of
the fish this week were found between 25 and 40 miles to the south where the remnants of the
temperature break are, but there have been fish closer, around the San Jaime, but the water has
been very rough there. Best lures were small feathers, even for the bigger fish. A couple of
Captains let me know that they had caught a couple of the bigger fish by dropping yo-yo’s to 120
feet when they were in the fish but they were not coming to the surface. Best colors for the
yo-yo’s was white or blue/white.
DORADO: A few boats were able to find small floating patches of Kelp and were able to get a
good catch of Dorado off of them, but most of the fish are open water and striking on lures. Not
a lot of them, but the sizes have been pretty good with averages at #25. Warmer water so that
has meant a long way to travel, but then that has sort of been the story on all the fish this week!
WAHOO: Like last week, there were Wahoo caught but not in large numbers. A large number
of boats reported strikes from the razor gang but most of them shook loose or cut through mono
leader. These were incidental fish and were not associated with anything in particular.
INSHORE: The Yellowtail are still out there, but just as last week, you have to scratch to get
fish. Live bait has been the ticket and this week the fish appeared to have moved from the arch
to off of the lighthouse on the Pacific side. Sierra are still available and the bite was a little bit
better than last weeks. There are reports of good Red Snapper fishing off of the beach up around
Migrainos on the Pacific
NOTES: If the warm water continues to move our way and the wind dies down, the fishing
should turn on and be closer to home as well. I sure hope it happens! There are still Gray Whales
around and we are seeing some every day close to shore. Our live music scene in Cabo took a
turn for the worse this week as Tanga-Tanga was refused a permit for the normal Tuesday
afternoon set. They were told that there would be no more permits issued due to noise problems.
Whoa Nelly! What about the NoWhere Bar blasting out the canned music all afternoon and night
across the marina, the noise from Squid Row all night long, the live Mariachis heard every night at
7 PM and the cars with boom box’s everywhere with the music cranked up so loud you can’t talk
when driving next to the? Guess the music police are selective in their enforcement. If there are
no more permits being issued for live outdoor music in Cabo San Lucas, where are they going to
hold the jazz and Gospel concerts that have been advertised? One more nail in the coffin. So, I
guess that the music I get here will be recorded like the disc I listened to for todays report. My
ears were tickled by the sounds of “Los Bukis” on their 1992 release “Quireme” on Fonovisa
records.

SAN JOSE, GUATEMALA
IN GENERAL: During the last week we hosted a party of four from Texas. The fishing was slower than normal due to a weather pattern pushing through. They were still able to release 24 sails in 3 days, and the guys all had a great time even with the bad weather. This group typically goes to Costa Rica each year, but remarked that overall, Guatemala was better and they are looking forward to a return trip. They loved the crew, boat, accommodations and food, with one guy remarking that he thought he gained 8 pounds while there. Inshore, there was no one out, so we don’t have a report.
