Feb 15, 2009; 04:24PM - Make 'Em Last : Save A Grub
|
|
Category: Fishing tips and tricks
|
|
Author Name: Nathan
|
|
Tip&Trick Description 1:
Make your grubs, curly tails, dingers, etc last by sliding the grub past the eye of the hook and then stick a toothpick/shaved wood into the eye and cut the ends. This prevents throwing the grub off even after a few hits. Also play with the cutting to change a lure's action. |

Feb 28, 2003; 12:17PM - Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Sportfishing Report 2-21-03 to 2-27-03
|
|
Category: Mexico Ixtapa Zihuatanejo

Author Name: Susan Richards/Stan Lushinsky

The turn of the full moon brought with it a cold green current form the North and the combination of the two events spelled disaster for the fishing in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo last week. The once abundant SAILFISH were last seen moving South to warmer temps and any boat raising one last week was considered lucky. Mr. Don's Orem's group fishing 4 days on 5 Super Pangas landed 3 SAILFISH, (one which went close to 150 lbs), 18 YELLOWFIN TUNA to 40lbs. as well as a host of Big YELLOWTAIL JACKS and BONITOS. French angler, Mr. Germain fishing aboard the Super Panga, 'Monica' landed 1 SAILFISH, 2 YELLOWFIN TUNAS and 1 ROOSTERFISH. Returning New Jersey angler, Mr. Ron Reinhardt fishing aboard the 'Yellowfin II' landed 3 YELLOWFIN TUNA. Mr. Sammy Branoff, 76 years young, fishing aboard the 'La Bamba' was able to wrestle two nice 40lb DORADOS to the boat on his first day out. Capt. Adolopho Espinosa reports that the YELLOWFIN TUNA as the best game in town at this time but they have been difficult to locate moving between the 20-40 mile mark. Even when the schools were found they were often reluctant to bite. Finding some floating debris this afternoon Capt. Adolopho landed 1 SAILFISH, 6 AMBERJACK and 7 SHARKS. Several BLUE MARLIN were also reported as well as other boats hooking up but loosing MARLIN this week. As the week ended the blue water was moving closer to shore and hopes of better days lay ahead.
The next few weeks should see an increase in the TUNA and MARLIN activity as there continues to be schools of BONITO all around the Ixtapa area. As water conditions improve the inshore bit should also begin to develop. For those anglers interested in red hot Roosterfishing May through August can be spectacular. Read about Mr. Ken Schultz's comments in his latest article for Field & Stream on Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Roosterfishing. Here is the link to Ken's article.

Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Weather: Sunny, highs in the 80's
