| Fishing is an ancient practice that dates back to at least the beginning of the Upper Paleolithic period about 40,000 years ago. Isotopic analysis of the remains of Tianyuan man, a 40,000-year-old modern human from eastern Asia, has shown that he regularly consumed freshwater fish. |

| In three decades, the world's oceans will contain more discarded plastic than fish when measured by weight, researchers say. |

| As of 2020, there were 34,000 known fish species around world. That’s more than the number of species in all other vertebrates: birds, reptiles, mammals, and amphibians combined. |

|
| Whats in a name you ask? |
| If we’re going to be strict about it, jellyfish and starfish are not really fish because they don’t have a backbone. As a correction, many public aquariums are now using the terms “sea jellies” and “sea stars”. |

| Even Catfish are finicky |
| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

CABO SAN LUCAS FISH REPORT NOVEMBER 4-11, 2002
WEATHER: Looks like we are in the fall season here
as the weather is almost exactly the same
as it was last week. Our nighttime lows are in the
high 60�s and the daytime highs got up to the
low 90�s once. Very comfortable and easy to live
with! Of course we had no rain and only partly
cloudy skies early in the week. (Baia)
WATER: Water temperature was important this week
and it seemed that almost everywhere you
went the temperature stayed at just around 80-82
degrees. Earlier in the week there was a temp
break to the southwest that ran southeast/northwest
but as the week came to a close this break
kept moving farther away. San Jaime bank was the
only place that showed a good change all
week long and the water there was 79-80 degrees.
The surface conditions were good all week
and only on Friday did we start to get a bit of
wind and that disappeared overnight. (Desafinado)
BAIT: Caballito and Sardinas, the same as last
week. Caballito at $2 per bait and $20 for a small
handful of Sardinas. There was no problem getting
bait if you were early. (Samba Dees Days)
FISHING:
BILLFISH: There were Marlin out there, both Blues
and Stripers, but the focus this week for
almost all the boats were Tuna. Marlin were not
targeted and to be honest, not really wanted.
That may seem strange for Cabo, but this week was
the big Tuna Tournament. There were
Marlin found almost everywhere and some of the
larger Blues were found around the 95 and 1150
spots and a few were found at Golden Gate Banks.
Most of the Striped Marlin were found on the
Pacific side and they were running in small packs.
There was about a Marlin for every other boat
this week with the average slightly higher on the
non-tournament days. (O Pato)
YELLOWFIN TUNA: The fish of the week and since
there was so much effort put into finding
them we have some good details. First off, it was
a long run to find the fish and almost all the
larger fish were found in the Dolphin. Runs to 40
miles were the norm when heading out and
there were a few boats that went as far as 60
miles. Dolphin action and live baits were the key.
There were 154 boats in the two day tournament and
20 fish over 100 pounds were weighed,
three of them were over 200 pounds. The largest
fish was #256 and was caught at the San Jaime
Bank on a live flying fish. Down the scale we saw
fish at #224, #219, #182, #157 and 15 other
fish in the 100-150 pound range. We quit counting
the 35-60 pounders! As I said, live baits were
the key as only one of the money fish was taken on
a lure. You had to find the right kind of
Dolphin and if you were one of the first ones, or
if you stayed with them after other boats had left,
you had a shot at a nice fish. Lures accounted for
many fish and the favorites seemed to be
Marauders and cedar plugs, followed by straight
runners in purple/black. Samba Triste)
DORADO: There were plenty of Dorado all week long
and they were schooled up. If you
caught one you usually caught more. Of course the
key was to get one hooked up and right
behind the boat, then the school would stay around
long enough to get a few more hooked on live
bait or chunks. Looking for frigate birds was a
good key, as was seeing small showers of flying
fish. The action was good at the San Jaime and on
the Pacific close to the beach. Most of the
fish were running 12-25 pounds. (Samba De Uma Nota
So)
WAHOO: With the number of boats we had out there
working the banks this week there were a
larger than normal number of Wahoo caught. The
largest brought in for the tournament was 74
pounds and the second largest was 60 pounds. There
were numbers of fish in the 40-50 pound
class as well and most of these fish were taken on
lures. (E Luxo So)
INSHORE: There was good inshore action this week
for Dorado and Skipjack, and the Sierra are
starting to show up as well. Smaller Roosterfish
are found every day and there have been fair
catches of assorted bottom fish also. (Baia)
NOTES: Now that tournament season is over for us
things should return to normal. It sure is
exciting but can wear you down quick! I have a new
section on my web site called �Ask The
Captain� that I have just gotten up, so if you
have any questions fell free to ask. Now I have
some time to devote to responding! The Tuna
Tournament we just had was one of the best run
operations I have ever been involved in and my hat
is off to every one involved, thank you for a
class operation and may there be many more to come.
This weeks report was written at 5am to
the sounds of Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd in their
1963 release titled �Jazz Samba�, recorded live
in Pierce Hall, All Souls Unitarian Church in
Washington D.C., February 13, 1962, Polygram
Classics and Jazz, Verve Records. Oh yeah, sit
back and enjoy! Until next week, tight lines!
