Tip&Trick Description 1:
The Castaway
One day this guy, who has been stranded on a desert island all alone for ten years, sees an unusual
speck on the horizon. 'It's certainly not a ship, 'he thinks to himself. As the speck gets closer and closer,
he begins to rule out the possibilities of a small boat, then even a raft.
Suddenly, emerging from the surf comes this drop-dead gorgeous blonde woman wearing a wet suit and
scuba gear. She approaches the stunned guy and says to him, 'Tell me, how long has it been since
you've had a cigarette?' 'Ten years' replies the stunned man. With that, she reaches over and unzips a
waterproof pocket on her left sleeve and pulls out a pack of fresh cigarettes. He takes one, lights it and
takes a long drag and says, 'Man oh man! Is that ever good!'
And how long has it been since you've had a sip of bourbon?' she asks him.
Trembling, the castaway replies: 'Ten years!' She reaches over, unzips her waterproof pocket on her
right sleeve pulls out a flask and hands it to him. He opens the flask, takes a long swig and says, 'Wow,
that's absolutely fantastic!'
At this point, she starts slowly unzipping the long zipper that runs own the front of her wet suit, looks at
him seductively and asks, 'And how long has it been since you've played around?' With tears in his eyes
the guy falls to his knees and says. 'Oh sweet Jesus! Don't tell me you've got golf clubs in there too! |

Sep 12, 2004; 08:41AM - Dorado, Tuna and Grumpy Seas
|

Category: Saltwater Fly Fishing Reports
|
|
Author Name: Gary Graham

REPORT FROM GARY GRAHAM'S BAJA ON THE FLY:
PROVIDING QUALITY SALTWATER FLY-FISHING 365 DAYS A YEAR SOUTH OF THE BORDER.
FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: bajafly@bajafly.com
USA toll-free (800) 919-2252; Mexico 011-52-624-14-10373
Sat., Sept. 11, 2004. Report covers the period Sat.-Fri. (9/4-9/10)
EAST CAPE, MAGDALENA BAY, ZIHUATANEJO, MEXICO; AND SAN JOSE, GUATEMALA CONDITIONS
Before you read this fishing report, pause a moment to remember the victims and families of the cowardly 9/11/01 terrorist attack.
EAST CAPE
IN GENERAL: The Sept. hurricane parade continued far to the south with “Isis” marching out to the west causing some grumpy seas on the outside. Plenty of big tuna were found under the porpoise and if you found the right bunch, it was wide open. However, some of the schools seemed to have a serious case of lockjaw. On the billfish front, sailfish dominated the action again this week with a handful of shots a day being the norm. Dorado in close to shore provided the post-dawn action for early risers. Also, there are a few fat skipjack in the same neighborhood extending from Rancho Leonero to Punta Arena (Lighthouse).
AIR & SEA -
Water temperature 80-89
Air temperature 74-98
Humidity about 47%
Wind: 13 mph from the SE
Conditions: rain in the foothills every afternoon
Visibility 8 miles
Sunrise 7:03 a.m. MDT
Sunset 7:26 p.m. MDT
Sep. 14, New; Sept. 21, First Quarter; Sep 28, Full; Oct. 6, Last Quarter.
OFFSHORE: Sails and tuna were the “Blue Plate Special” this week.
INSHORE: Dorado close and plenty for the first few hours of the day.
BEACH: Still tough with plenty of off-color water caused by afternoon wind waves. Best bet early morning. For the persistent, there are some decent sight-casting opportunities mid-day from Rooster Alley to the Arroyo.
BILLFISH – Mostly sails with an occasional blue or stripe showing up in the pattern.
YELLOWFIN TUNA – Look for the porpoise and hope you find the hungry ones.
DORADO – You shouldn’t have to go far; inside of three miles is far enough.
ROOSTERFISH\\JACK CREVALLE – Lighthouse for bubba or Rooster Alley for a mixed bag including jacks, roosters and ladyfish.
BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK – Still can be found in the same zone as the dorado.
PARGO AND CABRILLA – Rocky outcropping are the best right now.
SIERRA – Bait receivers at Punta Colorada or La Ribera seemed to have a few lurking about, don’t forget the wire or bring lots of flies.
