And away we go?..The 2012 fishing season is underway and if this is a sign of things to come, we are going to have a fabulous year. Right now the fleet is concentrating on the out of this world yellowtail bite. Most boats are returning to the dock with limits on yellowtail from 25-35lb. and up to 50lbs. Most of the yellowtail are being landed on sardine, mackerel, and caballitos. One of the hot spots right now seems to be just south of La Ribera. Many of the locals have said that this is the best yellowtail bite they have seen in almost 20 years. Yellowtail are usually in the East Cape area for a very short time in the winter and spring, so if you are looking to get in on this phenomenal bite you need to hurry on down.There is also a large concentration of striped marlin in the area, but with the great yellowtail bite, not too many people are going after them. Many captains have reported seeing schools of marlin on the surface, as many as five grouped together. We are also seeing some small dorado around, but nothing of much size as of yet. The inshore bite is also off to a great start with many anglers hooking up to some smaller to medium size roosters as well as some nice sierra. That is it for this week amigos. We hope to have lots more great reports this season. Hope to see all of you down in Los Barriles this year. All the best! Eddie Dalmau/Baja?s Van Wormer Resorts
