FWI GONZAGA
Weatherman LIED, it was 100+ every day, winds all below 10 mph. That is DEGREES and FISH. Lots of nice bass, YT, Sierra, Cabrilla, snapper, needle fish, corvina, everyone was hungry!!!! Only 8 pangas on beach and they were not fishing.
NEW NEW NEWS! PERMANENT GILLNET BAN signed for Upper Gulf. NO gillnets are allowed in the area. San Filipe down to just south of Puertocitos. ALL gillnet fishing in that area is ILLEGAL. Saw 2 totuava on the beach again this trip, just gutted and left to rot. Both 60+ inch fish. Tight Lines. |
The thought of those beautiful fish left on the beach makes me sick.
I'm getting ready for some of that 100+ down there. It can't get here fast enough. |

Thanks for the report Bob. I was down there about a month ago and found 3 totoaba gutted and rotting. Absolutely magnificent fish. Coyotes and vultures were happy. A net ban might be too little and way too late for the vaquitas. Only hope maybe to catch them all and put them in a sea pen or marine park. After such heavy fishing pressure in such a contrated area it's amazing any still survive. Mike

That's awesome on the gillnets! Baja has needed to do that for awhile now. Hey me and a couple vets from our HOW chapter are headed to Gonzaga in Sept. Hoping to pick your brain a little about it. Never fished gonzaga, just east cape, and rosarito. We'd be doing Bay of LA but time constraints. I'd do San Felipe/Puertocitos because of time if I thought I'd actually catch something there

That's awesome, thanks! We're all retired so we're planning it for a weather window early Sept. We'll watch the wind and temp and pick a week that it looks like it'll be good. Is there a time in Sept you're planning on being there?

How far south
Great news on the gill net ban. Do you know if the ban extends all the way down to Gonzage bay.

That's kinda funny Rossman because I've heard that the traditional Chinese importance cure, tiger penis, is frequently counter fitted with seal or sea lion penis. Let the buyer beware. Drinking tea made from seal penis only makes you hungry for sea food, not erect. Mike
