In search of Sierra


Well it has been awhile since I have fished the "ceviche fish."
I was wondering where would be the nearest place from the boarder that I could catch Sierra between now and the fist week of New years?

Well, they are at least south of Santa Rosalia, but the bonito are thick.

Second best for Ceviche, Trigger Fish.

Plentiful all year north and south of Puertocitas, near the border as well.

They'll straighten all of your hooks for you too.:lol:

It's definatly chilly this time of year, we're heading down on Christmas day for 12 days. Nights brisk, days are mild as long as the wind is not blowing.

The inshore fishing is always good in the winter. Lots of little guys, lots of fun. More rock structure from Puertocitas down.
All the points below Bahia Santa Maria have structure to them.

For weather info go to www.sanfelipe.com.mx

For Sierra you want to go early, from 6-9am (but they will bite later and in the afternoon too 4-6pm) and you can surf fish from shore in the mornings or troll using huchis small blue with a feather or rapala medium size blue like sardine or rainbow. Use no leader or anything. Tie directly to the rapala with the line and troll at about 5-8kts vary speed and direction over points and rock outcropping or anywhere along movement of tide and current outside. If you work it for up to a few hours you will get Sierra.
