Foreman Gary Barnes-Webb reported from Rancho Leonero for the week ending November 2: "It has been a windy week down here. Thursday, Friday and Saturday were blown out. Today is beautiful again, a typical scenario for this time of year. That said, the fishing has been good.

"Still good bait available, the squid returned and the bait guys have had good Caballitos and Ballyhoo on offer.

"Most of the Billfish action was around Sailfish this week. The strong Blue Marlin bite of last week seemed to fall away a bit. This could also be as a result of the light fishing departures! Stripers are around but were picky biters, with Ballyhoo and Caballitos doing the most work.

"Dorado continue to bite all over the bay. Some bigger bulls earlier in the week to 40 pounds. Schools of smaller fish taking chunks of squid.

"Good-sized Jacks and a lot of Roosters to 25 pounds in all the usual spots. Good times for the fly fishermen. Caballitos doing the trick.

"The breezy conditions definitely turned the water over, producing slightly cooler surface. This brought on some Sierra around the lighthouse and Punta Colorada."
