| __________________________________________________ January 28, 2003 - Vol. 4 No. 5 __________________________________________________ WOULDN'T YOU LOVE TO BE AT BACARRAC RIGHT NOW? The "LOBINAS GRANDES" (big bass) of Bacarrac, Mexico are alive and well and Lake Baccarac is every bit the bassing gold mine that it's always been, says Gary Yamamoto. "I made fifty trips to Baccarac between 1978 and 1998," relates Yamamoto. "After a five year break, I can honestly say that Bacarrac has never been better than it is right now." In the space of three short days, Gary and Beverly Yamamoto fished New Year's at Lake Bacarrac. Gary accounted for several double-digit fish with a best of 11-9, and Beverly boated her personal best, a 10-12, along with handfuls of eights and nines. "Beverly and I caught way over a hundred fish each day! It was a no-holds-barred bass war, and if you didn't have a hundred baits a day you were in trouble!" In the sub-tropical world of Baccarac, bass spawn as many as three, four, or even five times a year, usually with the full moon. Yamamoto's most recent trip, right at New Year's, was on the dark of the moon, post spawn. The dominant bass, the true giants, had already made one trip to the beds, and possibly two. Based on past experience, there should be at least two more full spawning cycles, one with the moon in February, and one in March. Wouldn't you love to be at Baccarac for the February or March full moon?
