Favorite time of year

It has been hard to pinpoint my favorite time of year in Bahia Asuncion because every month offers such a variety of fishing options but mid September to November 1st certainly has moved to the top of my list. The combination of warm but not uncomfortable days and nights, very little wind that only freshens in the mid afternoon, and the abundance of big yellowtail, and tuna and wahoo in the area has made for some very interesting fishing in the last couple weeks. If you are on the fence about if and when to come down, come down now or make your plans for next year.

Yesterday was one of those outstanding yellowtail days. I managed to land 19 yellows between 7 am and 11 am. I could have easily broken the Svendawg's record of 21 but first of all I want Sven to be here when I break his record, and secondly, my arms were like noodles. Sven will readily admit that his 21 yellowtail day was a day of rats but yesterday was quite different. There were a few in the 8 to 17 pound range but I had 8 that were clearly over 25. Unlike last week when Druko and I found them in fairly shallow water and went something like 5 for 16 on hookups, yesterday's were in deeper water and I lost zero to rocks and only a couple came unbuttoned.

Not all good news unfortunately. A fellow full time gringo in Asuncion who was a free diving spearo, drowned while free diving last Thursday. I'll miss his insight into Southern Baja fishery. RIP Duke Brownfield.
