WEATHER: It
has been really good up until yesterday when we had rain most of the day. I was
consistently raining, just about all day. Not a hard down pour just light rain
all day. Not really, too much wind, just rainy. Besides that, the whole week
was really nice, but very hot. Highs in the 90,s and lows in the low 70,s.
WATER: Still
pretty warm in lots of areas with an average temperature of 86 to 88 degrees.
Please check
out the Tempbreak map to get a good idea on water temperatures.
BILLFISH:
Still pretty strong Billfishing for Blue and Striped Marlin, along with
Sailfish. San Jamie Banks is where the Marlin and Sailfish are being landed
using live bait, lures and ballyhoo. The Sailfish are still here due to the
warm water temperatures in the area. Normally Sails come in for 2 or 3 weeks
maximum and then are gone and we don’t see many the whole year. In Puerta
Vallarta the Sails are there year round but here we only get a glimpse of them
throughout the year.
DORADO: The
Dorado fishing has picked up some and we are landing a few nice ones in the
15lb to 25lb mark. It seems after the good rain we had we have seen some good
Dorado bit over the last couple days. This is really good news cause we think
they mite be here to stay awhile. We haven’t seen really too much good Dorado
action all year as it has been pretty much hit and miss.
SWORDFISH:
Hasn’t heard of any caught this week.
WAHOO: Our
own Bob Marlin some really nice Wahoo this past week, we had 3 that were in the
30lb to 50lb range. We were jigging iron and using rapalas at Grey Rock when we
landed these fish. There has also been quite a few smaller ones being landed in
the same areas. We got lucky and landed like 3 over 30lbs.
TUNA: Nice size Tuna were landed this past week
with one at 140lbs and another at 200lbs.The Tuna action we are seeing now is
mostly football size Tuna being caught at Grey Rock , tight to the beach using
Cedar Plugs and King Busters. The bigger Tuna have moved up and around Jamie
Banks. If the commercial Tuna boats stay away we might continue to land some
nice ones.
INSHORE:
There has been some good Amberjack action reported using iron. Small Tuna on
sardines has been good inshore if you can find the sardines. From Grey Rock to
the Pump House has been the area for decent Tuna and even Sailfish action using
ballyhoo. Some small Dorado every once in a while have been landed.
It might be
worth grabbing a Panga and going out for a 5 hour excursion to see what happens
inshore.
