great report I fish there every other year, I was on those breakers this year fishing for roosters ... very un-nerving to say the least. Nice striped Marlin

Wow, looking at those pics, they sure made a nice marina! When I went there last April, we got there RIGHT before the new marina was built. Still had all the cranes working and moving sand while I was there.... Nice job with the YT on jigs! Which jigs were productive?

Williamson 100 gram white blue and red caught the most fish. A white 135 shimano also caught some fish and for the first time ive seen the fish inhaled the jig. The whole thing was in his mouth and 1 assist hook was in each side of his mouth. Didnt catch any thing on diamonds or sumos but the fish sure did like the jigs worked fast...

Hey Lex, was your captain fishing with you at all? I invited, both, Captain Hector and Captain Chame to fish while I was and the technique they were using most was cast far, wait, retrieve fast as hell. I had the most hookups with Sierra Macks using this method while I was down there last year.

They fished a little but my fiance was catching so many fish they were busy with her because i told her to let them dehook any caught fish and then let them reset the line for her. I didnt want my stella thrown in the water or any fishing accidents requiring medical treatment in a different country.

Were you using the YoYo style method of jigging or Japanese speed jigging?

LEXPRO · 04-25-2008, 02:31 PM

Tried yoyoing with sumo jigs but didnt get a bite. When i used japanese style jigs i caught fish (1 skipjack tuna,1 snapper, several roosters, lots of yellowtail).
