Feb 15, 2009; 04:24PM - Make 'Em Last : Save A Grub

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. |

�FLY HOOKER� FISH REPORT FOR 26 DECEMBER 2002
We were supposed to have the Dave Collie party
fishing the �Fly Hooker� today but the boat
did not start this morning. It seems that the
batteries were dead plus, as we found out later,
one
of the cables was bad in the center. Dave wanted
to do some Panga fishing so we got one set up
for him after being unable to find a boat to take
the whole group out. We re-scheduled the trip
for tomorrow. Two new 8D batteries and a new cable
and by mid afternoon we were ready to
go! Later on we received a call from Dave
canceling the rescheduled trip as most of the
people in
his group had changed their minds about going. Two
lost days now...ouch. With a bit more
notice we may have been able to get another group
out fishing tomorrow.
�FLY HOOKER� FISH REPORT FOR 28 DECEMBER 2002
The Ben Tucker group fished the �Fly Hooker�
today and the idea was to get a Marlin tagged
and released and catch one Dorado for dinner.
Yesterday the area south of the San Jaime Banks
had been putting out some fish so that is where
Juan and Manuel fished today. They saw six
Striped Marlin and tossed bait to one of them and
had one of them hit a lure but not hook up.
Juan said he saw some Dorado but they were not
interested either. No fish for the day but we
were not alone as it appeared that at least half
the boats the fished today had the same sort of
luck.
� FLY HOOKER� FISH REPORT FOR 29 DECEMBER 2002
We received a request at 1 p.m. for a four hour
trip and Juan and I went down and got the boat
set up. Rod was the client and he brought his
three sons, Cory, Jessie and Jeremy, plus his
brother Judd. The idea was to fish the Sea of
Cortez up to the Chileno beach area looking for
Sierra then spend some time snorkeling. A great
trip it was as the kids had a blast catching two
out of four Sierra we had hit, saw Manta rays
grouped up and swimming along with the tips of
their wings out for the water, saw Manta Rays
jumping clear of the water, saw Dorado chasing
bait and Pelicans chasing the whole group. We
anchored up in Santa Maria bay and the kids had
fun snorkeling and checking out the fish life. It
was a nice afternoon but the clouds moved in and
the wind was whipping when we returned so we did
not get to see much of a sunset.
Happy new year from George, Mary, Juan and Manuel,
the crew of the �Fly Hooker�!
