Productive Bottom Fishing – Triggerfish, Pompano & Grouper (November 10)
DESCRIPTION
On November 10, ADRENALINA 1 departed Cabo San Lucas Marina with a plan to focus on bottom fishing.
We headed toward the waters off Arroyo del Tiburón, initially trolling with planers and trap-hook rigs in search of wahoo.
Although we did not encounter any wahoo, we successfully caught a small tuna during the trolling session. Due to its small size, the crew decided to release the fish.
Following the release, we switched strategies and began bottom fishing in the same area.
The change in technique produced consistent action, resulting in approximately 15 triggerfish, 3 pompano, 3 cardinalfish, 5 rainbow fish, and 1 grouper locally known as cazuelera.
The crew also landed another tuna, adding to the variety of species caught throughout the trip.
What began as an unsuccessful search for wahoo turned into a productive bottom fishing outing, with approximately 28 fish caught in total, including the small tuna released earlier in the day.
