Gerardo Hernandez of Tortuga Sportfishing said yellowtail counts were down slightly from the very good action of the previous week, but Tortuga pangas fishing the Las Arenas side still did well on yellowtail, sierra, cabrilla, mixed pargos, and jack crevalle near the launch beach at Ensenada de los Muertos and out at Isla Cerralvo. "We're starting to feel the effects of the warm season," Hernandez said. "La Paz temperatures are in the 80s with clear skies. We continue to find lots of bait in the different fishing areas, and this is letting us look for the fish everywhere. There are a lot of fish at the island and good fishing for jack crevalle for anglers who are looking for a good fight with that species."


LA PAZ TORO--Greg Garcia of Santa Ana, Calif., hooked this good-sized jack crevalle, or toro in Spanish, while panga fishing out of Ensenada de los Muertos south of La Paz with Tortuga Sportfishing's Capt. Hugo Lucero. Said Tortuga's Gerardo Hernandez, "Even with the big yellowtail bite now at La Paz, you still do have the opportunity to catch other species if you want to."
