Cabo San Lucas Sport Fishing Report for the week of 11-17 April 2011


Here it is spring in the desert tropical paradise, we call Cabo San Lucas. And it is acting like spring. The weather is warming up and so is the fishing. After a slow month of marlin fishing, the bite is back on. The water is warming up nicely and the fishing is picking up, especially, on the Cortez side of the peninsula. The daytime temperatures are up in the high 80’s Fahrenheit and the water temps are hitting the mid 70’s. The winds are mostly from the South and that is bringing up more warm water.  So the fishing is only going to get better.

But the words to describe this last week’s fishing is Striped Marlin. Most boats are catching at least one Striped Marlin, with some as many as 4.
.

It’s been great Striped Marlin fishing for the big kids, with some great aerial displays and up close views.

And some smaller kids, too.
Here is the other end of the Striped Marlin.
On the 14th the crew performed well and the Striped Marlin did, too. They all helped to make the day a Picante fishing memory.

More Striped Marlin were caught this week than all the month of March. So things are really heating up. There were other fish around like a couple of Sailfish, some Snapper, Grouper, Sharks and Roosterfish. And we are all looking forward to the fishing getting better as the water continues to warm up.
