The "T" word-East Cape

[jenwren]

The "T" word
Here in Baja, Semana Santa (Holy Week) is hugely celebrated. Banks, schools and many businesses are closed. Believe it or not our municipality offices closed for the entire week. The holiday is so big I heard Sam's Club in La Paz ran out of beer. Hundreds of Cabo and La Paz residents invade and camp on East Cape beaches for the holiday.

Typically the weather is cold and very windy. Every year we are happy to have the holiday behind us because that is when the weather is certain to change. In 23 Easters I have never seen the weather this nice for this time.

Marlin have been the main event again this week with most boats scoring more than one per day. A few dorado and wahoo are being taken but it is anybody's guess where they will pop up and very hard to target.

Spotted and spinner dolphin showed for a couple of days last week and one day a few tuna were taken. Everyone is holding their breath in anticipation of the tuna going off. Showing my age the present situation reminds me of the old E. F. Hutton commercial. Just mention the "T" word around here and everybody listens. Conditions are right with warm blue water and we all have our fingers crossed that it will be soon.

The holiday used to leave our beaches a huge mess. Now the municipality has gotten involved and it is a more organized mess.
