East Cape-How long will it last?
What an incredible season we are experiencing. Southern Baja pretty much missed having a winter this year. Spring just flew by and we have gone straight to hot summer mode. Our tropical fruit trees are already bearing summer fruit. Yikes! The water in our swimming pool is already 91 degrees and the Sea of Cortez is 83 to 84 degrees. This is not typical for June. There is no more speculation about El Niño in my mind. We are living it.

Sportfishing has been spectacular the last few weeks. This last week has been a skippers dream. It has been one of the special times that anglers can order off the menu. Marlin, Dorado, wahoo, roosters, tuna, just say the word and we can most likely go find em. Ryan Loria with his son wanted to target marlin and released a blue and 3 stripers in one day. He decided to try for wahoo and we had 11 strikes and put 5 hoos on the deck another day.

I don't know how long this incredible bite will last but it is here now and we are enjoying it. Tuna have been the most elusive of the game fish. The fish are here but some days hard to locate. Other days the bite is WFO.

Over the last several years the charter sportfishing biz has changed. With excellent weather forecasts and communication to monitor how good the bite is many wait until the last minute to plan a trip. If you are not on the web making reservations after reading this report you are missing the boat.
