In the last couple of days, pretty consistent numbers of 3 to 7 lb. bass, with the best baits still being one oz. spinner baits with a white skirt, pearl swim baits, large Bill Dance fat free shad, watermelon red senkos, wacky style. We are seeing most of the big fish spawning right now with the water temperature over 70 degrees over most all of the lake.
Lake Baccarac Bass Fishing Report

Date: January 5th, 2012
Name: Lake Baccarac, Mexico
Hottest Baits: senkos, 1 oz spinnerbaits, topwater yellow magic
Hottest Colors: watermelon red senko and swimbaits, ratl traps, power worms
Date Fished: January, 2012
Comments: Topwater bass fishing produced fish over 10 pounds this Morning…more details soon.
The bass fishing from the previous two weeks was slow. The last four days offered only average results, boating 30 – 70 largemouth a day up to 7 lbs. Our Japanese clients, fishing predominantly top water, enjoyed their trip because 90% of their catches were on top water. The senko bite, spinner bait on top water offered the best results.
The mornings have been cool but the afternoons have certainly heated up. The water temperature on Lake Baccarac will start warming from this point on.
The water level, similar to all lakes on the Western side of Mexico, is lower than we would like to see it. Baccarac is currently around 30% capacity, with only about nine or ten percent useful water remaining for irrigation and electricity. We have seen these levels three times in the last ten years.

Costa Rica November, 2011 Fishing Report
+
I really like November. It is sometimes crazy to switch gears after being closed for the month of October and working shorter days, but I love the excitement of cranking up a new season. The October rains left us with lots of green water offshore the first part of the month so most anglers stayed inshore rather than put in the time to get the billfish to bite. They were rewarded with lots of roosterfish action and big cubera snapper. Mark Harwood who had a good ole rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas with his fishing buddy Brian took the big snapper of the week with a 44 lb monster.
David Plummer’s group from England and Scotland finally broke the ice on billfish and at one point had a triple header hooked up. Day by day the water is getting cleaner and Plummer’s group also took the first marlin of the season.
Liam Collins arrived yesterday morning and promptly told me he was out to catch a marlin. Well he certainly packed his “luck of the Irish” in his bag for the long flight to Costa Rica. First day out he bagged a 200 lb blue marlin, a sail, and three tuna in the 25 to 30 lb range. He only missed a grand slam by not getting a dorado. Last season the dorado made a sparse showing but they have been showing up in better numbers already this season. Reports from my fishing friends all along the southern coast are also telling me they are back.
That’s super good news because that means the marlin will be around in good numbers also. The blue water is about 8 miles offshore and every day is a little better. I love November!

Lake El Salto Bass Fishing

Name: Anglers Inn on Lake El Salto
Comments:
All Anglers Inn International properties in Mexico experienced record low temperatures. Mazatlan, El Salto and Mateos recorded lows in the low 30s for the months of January and February, but that didn’t stop the action.
The usual numbers weren’t there in those months, but anglers were reporting solid numbers with big bass being caught. Warmer temperatures bring better fishing. This month, the bite has been picking up in a big way. The springtime bite has busted on the scene at all Mexico locations, giving anglers a reason once again to flock to Anglers Inn.
The hot baits from both El Salto and Mateos are 8-inch Zoom Lizards, 5-6 inch Senkos, 4” and 5” swimbaits, crankbaits and Rat L Traps. The ever-popular Black/Blue 10-inch worms are always working this time of year. In short, this means that whatever technique anglers want to use works to catch big bass on El Salto and Mateos.
Jimmy Murata, TV host from Japan has fish El Salto many times and hit it big this month taking a 12 + on a deep diving crank bait. Congratulations, Jimmy! All of us at Anglers Inn are praying for our Japanese friends and wish them well. Hard core anglers aren’t the only people visiting Anglers Inn International in Mexico: Mark and Kim Owens have been visiting El Salto for seven years now, and every single year the couple enjoys the bass catching as well as the world class service. Mark’s testimony tells the entire story:
“Our first morning out on the water, I mentioned to our guide, that we wanted to fish for that monster bass. The Boss said that we may not catch very many fish, but you might get that big fish that my wife was looking for. I told him Kim was just looking for that 10-pound fish of a lifetime. We were on the water at gray light and he was off to his Honey Hole, and it was game on. We had a 9-4, 7-10, 7-4, 6-8, two 6-0, and a few 5’s and 4’s. The fishing was up and down, but we expected this. I think the cold front had the bass in a suspended pattern. We stuck with our game plan and it paid off big time. I stuck a 9-10, but it hit like a freight train. The guide insisted that Kim and I keep at it because there was big fish there. Sure enough, Kim set the hook on her dream fish and the fight was on. She handled that monster like a pro, and glided it to the net. The fish weighed in, a straight up 10-0. She went crazy. She had that school kid smile that was priceless. Kim and I had a wonderful stay visiting with all of the Anglers Inn staff, and the fishing was awesome as always.” “Kim’s 10 pounder came on a Carolina rigged 8’Zoom Lizard (watermelon/red flake), but the ten-inch Black/Blue Tail Power Worms were good, too. Our most productive bait was a Storm 5”, Wildeye Swimbait (shad pattern) and the Money Minnow.”
Anglers Inn at Lake El Salto is a great couples retreat. This is what Elaine and Vernon Merrifield from Colorado have to say about their recent trip: “Elaine and I just returned from some good fishing and relaxation at your lodge, Anglers Inn. We only fished in the mornings thus freeing up our afternoons for massages, reading and resting. Hate to admit it but she really put it on me. She landed two giant bass each over 8 pounds. I weighed them myself. She also beat me in numbers during both morning sessions. We were using watermelon lizards with a chartreuse tail. The guide rigged these Texas style and Carolina style. It seemed to us that the Carolina style was the most productive. I also used the old stand-by Bill Dance crank bait successfully. As always the watermelon, 6 inch Senkos worked early in the morning. The guide rigged them “wacky style” The last morning she beat me 29-12. I’m not use to that kind of treatment. Our guide seem to really enjoy the butt kicking I was getting. As always the staff was fabulous and I’m sure we each gained a few pounds during our stay. Thanks again for a wonderful holiday. We will return soon. Vernon Merrifield.
Anglers Inn has been touting the new bass boats that are being introduced to El Salto and right now they are making their way through customs and should arrive within a couple of weeks. They are 18’6” aluminum hull bass boats with more deck space (2 large casting decks), length, width, storage space, elevated fishing seats, front & rear trolling motors this fishing machine is in a class by itself. These boats will be tops on any lake in Mexico and worth the trip to Mexico just to fish out of them. Anglers Inn International is introducing a few summer specials for any level angler. The Super Season Specials can save potential anglers $500 on a regular 4 nights/3.5 days of fishing when celebrating the holidays with Anglers Inn.
