East Cape-blame it on the Strawberry moon


East Cape-blame it on the Strawberry moon
Personally, I don't subscribe to the full moon theory. This week started out with great fishing but as the moon became full the bite fell off. Having no other explanation for the lull in action I'm going to blame it on the Strawberry moon.

Striped marlin continue to be the main source of action but the last couple of days anglers have had to settle for one or two fish days compared to the four fish days earlier. Dorado have mostly disappeared and tuna action has been inconsistent. Cabo Yachts Bad Medicine did weigh a 176 lb. fish that was taken using a kite. Several other fish in the 40 to 80 pound range were also brought to the dock. Targeting tuna has been a gamble - right place at the right time thing. While seas have been calm in shore they have been a bit grumpy outside where tuna are being found.

The bait situation remains difficult. Yesterday we were able to fill our tubes with bullet tuna which is a real candy bait. Also several skippers have been able to find Camisetas on the buoys for bait.



Big appetite

Great report, great pictures, I just find it hard to believe that someone who makes their living from the sea and the fish in it would continue to allow your captains to drag a billfish up on the back deck for a photo. The chances of survival for that fish are greatly reduced when you do that.

I guess it is better than when every fish came back and got hung up at the dock for pictures but most outfitters have discontinued pulling the fish out of the water since it has become common knowledge that a very high percentage are injured when they do that.
