Rain finally, now lets get back to fishing
#1
Rancho Leonero Resort, East Cape BCS, Mexico
A report right from the source:

The week of June 28-July 5, 2014

The Environment:

A week of overcast, clouds and rain didn’t do much for the fishing, but it sure helped everything else down Baja way. By Saturday (7/5) the sun broke through and things were quickly swinging back to the normal July weather.

Water – Temps down a few degrees to high 70s and low 80s with a few hot spots a degree or two warmer.

Air – Highs in the 80s. Very little harsh direct sun.
.
The Bottom Line:

Bait remains excellent with our new Rancho crew really doing a good job. We’re getting good quality caballitos and ballyhoo. We are also beginning to get some sardina.

Even with the inclement weather, call it a 6 on the Rancho Leonero 1 to 10 scale.

Billfish – Although there were fewer fish, we still had blues, stripes and sails all week. The best areas were again close – from Cabo Pulmo to La Ribera, just 5- to 10-miles out. Sailfish were hitting the caballitos, the stripers mostly on the ballyhoo while the blues were taken on lures.

Yellowfin Tuna – The tuna were really hit and miss. There were schooled fish close inshore south of Los Frailes, but that’s quite a long boat ride. The fish were slow on the bite and mostly footballs to 20-pounds. The good news is that the sardina are available down there.

Dorado – The dorado were mostly schoolies. These smaller fish are harder to hook up with caballitos and ballyhoo, but the sardina were the way to go.

Roosterfish – While rooster fishing was a little quieter on the boats, it was good from the beach with a number of anglers taking good fish on poppers and waxwings.

Wahoo – With better weather, these buzz saws began to pop on Sat. There were a number of ’hoo taken … all on Rapalas. Best area was around Punta Colorado.

Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch …

Bottom fishing remained good-to-excellent with huachinango (the bright red snapper), barred pargo and amberjacks leading the way.
