[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: Ken and Amy Potter continued their Baja Adventure with a wide open tuna bite that sent them to the swim up bar at the pool for something cold. Double digit tuna can make a person very thirsty. This was the icing on the cake of what could only be described as a perfect week for them on their first trip to Baja. Note: In last Wed.'s condition report we ended with our guide Lance Peterson getting ready to take out clients Ken and Amy Potter with Amy threatening to give up saltwater fly-fishing forever if Lance didn't get her into a fish. Talk about guide pressure! Here's his report from later that afternoon:[/size][/font]

Out at the beach between Punta Colorada and Punta Arena I got my personal best rooster a thirty pound rocket that made a first run of 300 yards and had me chasing him down the beach. Almost an hour to land and photograph (fortunately, a guy came a long to take the photo’s) on the way back to the house I also caught a twelve-pound jack.[/size][/font]

[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: The main story and the action is tuna. The yellowfin tuna are here in incredible quantities and the boats are getting some fantastic counts. Most of the action is only 3 to 8 miles out of Zihuatanejo Bay. [/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]A perfect example of the excellent fishing we have was experienced by Don Mawhorter of Seattle, WA and Steve Jarred of Berthoud, Co. The first day, fishing with Santiago on the panga Gitana, they caught 30 yellowfin tuna and 1 sailfish. On the second day they fished with Adolpho on the panga Dos Hermanos. This inshore trip yielded 20 jack cravalle in the 15 to 20 pound class and one roosterfish of 50 pounds. [/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Along with the tuna, the blue marlin have been very active. Several have been taken and all within 5 miles of the beach. The main reason the marlin are here is the abundance of black skipjack tuna. [/size][/font]
