Ixtapa- Zihuatanejo Fish Report- The Independent Sportfishing Fleet
9-18-2009
Larry Edwards
Captain Temo Verbboonen, reporting for the I/Z Fleet, reflected good
fishing this week but a serious lack of anglers. The dorado and
sailfish are just 2 miles out of the Zihuatanejo Bay entrance and the
area offered clean, blue water. The schools of bonito showed up
again and the big game fish came with them. Sailfish averaged 80-90
lbs. and the dorado were in the 30 lb. class. The river mouths are
all open and running into the ocean making for chocolate water color
surrounding the entrances and the roosterfish have moved from these
areas into the cleaner, deeper waters. Most of the boats are
currently out of the water for their annual maintenance programs
during this low angler seasonal time of the year.
I/Z Climate: Mostly cloudy days with temps from 72 nights to 93
daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Been some rough and bumpy but fishable days with sea
temps at 85-86 degrees
Best Lure/Bait: Rigged baits have been working very well for the
billfish and dorado.
Bait Supply: Plenty of bait on a daily basis.
