Dorado have been the most consistent players, especially for our Tailhunter La Paz fleet. There are spots of dorado just inside La Paz Bay and in various places around Espirito Santo Island, but the best concentration and larger fish are around the Rosario / Las Cruces area in the channel between La Paz peninsula and Cerralvo Island. Fish aren't bit, but they're fun decent fish of 10-20 pounds with an occasional 30 pounder. Some days are better than others. Some boats will get limits some days while others right next to them will hit only a handful of fish or less. But, the fish are there!
Likewise, there seems to be a nice bit of marlin and sailfish around right now. Most have been caught incidentally while fishing for other species, but we've been hooking them all last week. Not alot, but every day is different. We had one day where almost every one of our pangas hooked at least one billfish. The next day there were only 2 hooked. Next day nothing. Day after that there were 4. All fish either broke off or were released except one which was kept and donated.
As a little sidebar, we had 2 wahoo hooked and cut off as well this week.
Late update: Got some wahoo late Saturday off Espirito Santo Island!

All the tourists have pretty much been evacuated or, there's no way to fly in, or hotels have been damaged or without services so trips have been canceled. Local residents or...... Read More
