The end of 2011 went out with a great fishing and the New Year started with great fishing. Most of the boats were enjoying multiple billfish days with both, sailfish and marlin and a good mix of 30-40 lb. dorado. Even the yellowfin tuna showed up in the 10 mil mark area for a couple of days and provided near limit fishing for the anglers. Temo reported flat, calm waters, good temps and clean, blue water throughout the area. He added, "The inshore fishing is very good for all of the fish. We have the roosterfish at Saladita, with quality sized fish in the 40-plus lb. ranges, jack crevalle, Sierras, bonito and rainbow runners with the inshore fish eager to bite the poppers.

IZ Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days with temps from 67 nights to 87 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions: Excellent! Temps are 83 inshore and rising to 84-85 offshore in the fishing area.

Best Fishing Area: Starting at just 10 mils outside the Bay.

Best Bait/Lures: Offshore fish biting the rigged baits well and the inshore fish eager on the poppers, especially the red/white colors and live bait is working well, too.

Bait Supply: Excellent for live bait and rigged baits.
