Asuncion Fishing & Pithaya Report
The yellowtail bite is wide open a few miles out and there are some dorado being caught as well but no tuna yet. The water temps are around 80 and the
visibility was great the last few days between hurricane swells.
But it's the shore fishing that has the campground abuzz....Dave & Bill from San Quintin couldnt go out on the panga cause their coolers were full
of fish from shore. They couldnt believe they caught 8 species in a couple hours...here are what they were catching, corvina, corbina, yellowfin and
spotfin croaker, sand shark, leopard shark, halibut, a couple different perch, and today Surfdoc caught the first yellowtail from the beach...he was
stoked the jacuzzi finally lit up.
Bajafam will be preparing the sashimi, ceviche and BBQ yellowtail from their haul trolling a few miles out today...limited out on nice 15-25 lb fish
in no time and back for breakfast!
We had our first pithayas of the season that Juan brought home from his way home from Vizcaino...get out there cause they are so big and sweet from
all the rain!!! Soooo awesome!
Here is Erin with a platefull that lasted like 10 seconds
We were all having such a lovely time with the fam.....until...the children got muched by the biggest needlefish in the world......baja is so
dangerous no?

Ok I will bite – Shari what does your reference to “the Jacuzzi” mean in reference to Surfdoc catching his first yellowtail from the beach? Is the
Jacuzzi the name of the beach, the name of the lure he used, a secret fishing technique, a reference to an inside joke, what?
However you did it - congratulations Surfdoc that is really cool that you caught a yellowtail from the beach. I hope the beach fishing is still good
when I arrive in Asuncion in about five weeks.
