Fishing Tournament Concludes in Mexico’s East Cape

The Los Angeles Times reported a successful conclusion to the Fiesta de 976tuna tournament in Baja California’s East Cape region. Sea of Cortez marlin and dorado are stuffed with squid, so it has been tricky to get them to bite.

However, Mary and Kenny Cochran of Torrance caught and released their first marlin, and Mary won the dorado contest with a 47-pound mahi-mahi.

Also releasing their first marlin were Lamar Lee and Emmett Olvera of Costa Mesa.

Winning the Bass Pro Shops/976tuna surf fishing portion of the contest — by landing a multitude of species from the beach — was Steve Kechichian, a 13-year-old taking a break from his far more significant battle against leukemia.

One of the greatest moments was when Paul Harris of Agoura Hills and his brother, Jeff, were greeted by a 23-foot whale shark that swam alongside their boat long enough to tempt them to jump overboard and catch a Baja sleigh ride.

Concluding the Tournament was the partying, required of any Baja fiesta, at the Palmas de Cortez hotel bar.

Cabo nightmare continues

East Cape fishing is unseasonably poor, and a chief factor might be unrelenting fishing by large-scale commercial purse-seiners.

“Bad news was the seiners showed up again and wrapped all the fish,” Fly Hooker Sportfishing Capt. George Landrum glumly reports. “The government allows it and now we don’t have anything to fish for.”

It makes no sense to allow such a large commercial fishing operation so close to — even within sight of — tourists who contribute millions annually to the economy.

But when have Cabo San Lucas Mexican fisheries laws, and the means by which they’re enforced, made sense?

A paradise awaits in Mexico

What top getaways are popular in US? Over the last few years, generic once popular tourist spots have reduced in popularity and niche themed vacations like fly fishing vacations or US sportfishing expeditions have grown in vogue.

Whether it is fishing in Alaska, Costa Rica or simply Sportfishing in Cabo San Lucas, the thrill of catching a big fish thrills the vacation traveler so much so that destinations like Panama and Baja California fishing has become sought after.

Unlike before, nowadays sportfishing enthusiasts never had it so good. Every kind of luxuries is available for the tourists in relatively untouched areas like the Sea of Cortez.
The fishing equipment and tackles etc. are usually easily available and the booming hotel industry ensures excellent accommodation. Add to this the thrill of deep sea fishing, the boat rides to the deep sea and we have a compelling travel destination.

Who are the people who would want to go to Mexico for Sportfishing?

Sportfishing is very popular in South America. Brazil sea bass is one of the popular fish in Brazil, and consequently there is a premium that fisherman can get. In Mexico also, fishing has been a part of many family traditions.

Things to look for to ensure a great vacation

Equipment : This is key to success as far as sportfishing is concerned. We hope to follow the school recommended methodology of renting out fishing equipment once we reach our destinations.

Environment : Slightly off the beaten track.
If you need to go seriously fish, then you need to choose relatively smaller destinations.

Infrastructure : When you spend upwards of 12 hours on the boat, the least you want is a comfortable hotel room with all the perquisites.

Sportfishing Playa de Mexico, Cabo San Lucas and Baja California all fit into this category as top tourist destinations. This is a great time to visit Mexico for all our sportfishing needs. Call http://www.reeldanger.com/ for further information.
