We are still only seeing minimal numbers of tourists arriving and the majority of these are past regular visitors. Weather settled down, no new storms threatening the area at this time, days are warm and humid, in the low 90’s, very little cloud cover and not much wind
to report either.
Ocean conditions were changing, off colored currents moved in, anglers were having to search a bit further offshore to find blue water. Bait supplies
consisted of caballito, ballyhoo, mullet and some bolito being found on the fishing grounds. Later in the week the bolito which had been schooling on
the San Luis Bank became hard to find. These batfish had been working for targeting the yellowfin tuna, which had ranged in sizes up to 100 lb., no
numbers to speak of, but a handful of quality fish were accounted for, but without the bolito for bait this limited options.
Closer to shore there were African pompano, various pargo species, cabrilla, amberjack and bonito, taken over the shallow rock piles, on jigs
and baits. Trolling along the beach stretches produced some epic wide open action for roosterfish, some of these fish reaching up to 60 lb. Shore
fishermen also got into this action, a few nice size snook were also reported. Some monster sized sierra to 15 lb. were landed, late season for
these mackerel species, this is the time when the largest sierra of the season are usually reported.
Not much going on for reports of any dorado or wahoo at this time. Though there was good action for striped marlin found in the vicinity of the Gordo
Banks and straight out from there. Trolling ballyhoo seemed to produce best, some charters reported as many as three of four marlin per outing,
sizes ranged up to 140 lb.
Light crowds, good fishing, Eric

We saw a limited number of tourists arriving, but at least we are seeing
people arrive and this is helping to restart businesses that have been shut
down for nearly three months. This will be a slow process, but local
population is putting it the extra effort to make the safest environment
possible so that people are able to relax and enjoy themselves. The weather
was more tropical this past week as a series of tropical disturbances
passed off to the southwest, no impact on land being felt, except some
cloud cover, humidity and some increased swells. Winds were relatively
light, picking up occasionally in the afternoon.
Ocean conditions were changing day to day, off colored and cooler currents
pushed in, dropping water temperature down in the lower 70 degree range
over the weekend. Large schools of bolito congregated on the fishing
grounds north of Punta Gorda. Some larger sized yellowfin tuna seen in the
area, though not many were hooked into, as there was limited angler
activity. There was one tuna of about 80 lb. reported mid-week.
Most consistent catches were for red snapper (huachinango), amberjack, a
few cabrilla and trophy sized roosterfish were patrolling the shoreline,
with fish over 50 lb. hooked into. A few late season larger sized sierra in
the mix, as well as jack crevalle.
Striped marlin action slowed some due to changing water conditions, though
early in the week there were still decent numbers of stripers encountered.
As conditions stabilize we do expect action to improve. Soon will be the
time when the black and blue marlin move onto local grounds.
Light crowds, good fishing, Eric
