African Pompano – A real bonus the past few weeks.


Rancho Leonero Resort, East Cape BCS, Mexico
A report right from the source:
The week of March 29-April 4, 2014

Water - 73-77 warmer than normal. Beautiful mornings with some afternoon winds for the last couple of days; very mixed this week.

Air - Pleasant with cool mornings and evenings, highs in the low 80s. Although cooler than last week, it's still very nice!

The Environment:

Water temperatures from73 to 77 degrees are somewhat warmer than usual. Air temperature highs were in the low-80s. Mild afternoon winds.

The Bottom Line:

About an 8 on a '1-10' scale!

Marlin – Stripers are aggressive for anglers targeting them. Multiple releases have been common; one Rancho Leonero guest released 6 striped marlin in two days.


Dorado – Bite very consistent, though not wide open. They’re right in front of the hotel … feisty scrappers, in the 10-pound range.


African Pompano – A real bonus the past few weeks. These are in the 15-pound range and pull like freight trains. Test your tackle, knots and willpower!


Pargo and More: Good to very good bottom fishing, with some quality pargo being taken right off our docks.

And back! East Africa...Zimbabwe. Take digital cameras....and lots of insect repellant...I mean lots.

Comment to the OP...looks like great fishing at one of Baja Surs finest fishing resorts, Rancho Leonero. Kudos and thanks!




I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Very nice pictures! Looks like early warm water is producing some good fishing. Pompano are tasty, right?! Pargo looks delicioso. Gracias, Amigo. Tio
