Puerto Morelos Fish Report- Marina El Cid, Cancun- Cozumel Area

3-5-2009
Larry Edwards

According to Fleet Manager, Armando Gutierrez, the fishing is much better than the counts reflect. This past week, all trips were 4- hour charters and while they are fun for those folks that want to get out on the ocean and wet a line, and catch a fish or two, they just don't allow sufficient time to locate the better fishing areas that may change from day to day. Overall counts for the 8 charters reflected 6 king mackerel, 4 Atlantic barracuda, 2 dorado and 1 grouper.

Puerto Morelos Climate: Partly cloudy days with temps from 66 nights to 84 daytime highs. Very pleasant climate conditions.

Sea Conditions: Sea temps warmed up a little and back to 80 degrees throughout the area. Light tropical surface breezes of 10-15 knots with a light wind chop but no swell.

Best Bait: Remains the rigged ballyhoo, the mainstay of the food supply for this area.
