BOLA Report
We arrived in BOLA in the afternoon of the 4th with westies blowing. Decided to stay in on Monday due to windy seas so we worked on the house making
improvements ( I have a shower and hot water now). We went out on Tue, Wed, Thurs, Fri, & Sat. We have gotten Several Bonita and 3 Yellowtail at
the 7 mile reef and a multitude of bottom fish all over the bay. There are huge amounts of baitfish here. We have seen Whale sharks in South Bay,
Finback Whales near Smith westside and eastside. Also saw Dolphins and 1 finback heading out by Los Muchas. I caught a small Dorado between Smith and
Piojo while bottom fishing. It was chasing the fish I was reeling in and hit my second shrimp fly on the line right at the top of the water column.
We have canned 48 1/2 pints and 12 pints of Bonita so far. All in all I would say it has been a great trip so far. Sorry pictures are unavailabe at
this time. Connie

yes, I have seen them fishing, and it is pleasant except we have had very windy conditions for 2 days with no fishing. Hope we have better luck
tomorrow. Connie

Staying in again today, very windy again. Thinking of driving to LaGringa and the fish camp, we have never ventured out there.....projects done on
the house so time to explore.

Let me know if you need any ideas for exploring! The 'lost mission' was a fun site if you want to drive to Las Animas (35 miles).
The railroad terminal south of Las Flores is another interesting site if you haven't been there!
