According to the Fleet Manager, Armando Gutierrez, the bite this week reflected some off season sailfish action for the boats that elected to fish the 6-8-hour fishing days. The overall combined fish counts averaged out at 5.5 fish per boat, per day, that included a 7 fish variety for the week and reflected 3 sailfish, 38 bonito, 13 king mackerel, 11 red snapper, 3 grouper, 6 triggerfish and 15 Giant Atlantic barracuda for the 16 days of fishing effort. All in all, a good fishing week for the anglers.

Puerto Morelos Climate: Partly cloudy days but warm temps, ranging from 72 nights to 90 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions: Light tropical surface breezes to about 10 knots with sea temps at 85-86 degrees throughout the area

Best Bait/Lure: The un-rigged ballyhoo worked best on the sailfish and was also productive on most of the other trolled fish species this week.

Bait Supply: We have never experienced any bait supply issues in this area as the ballyhoo are seemingly always available.
