Blue water moved close in this past week and according to Captain Temo Verboonen, the sailfish bite was considerably better this week. Still, it was pretty good marlin fishing, too, but it seemed like there were more on & off days with the marlin. There was very little bird life and porpoise working the areas this past week and that usually reflects a change in the bait availability throughout the area, or at least a movement from the areas we were fishing. The inshore action slowed quite a bit this past week as the jack cravelle have moved off the area and the roosterfish moved out from Pantla Beach and have not been re-located yet. Still, good bonito and chula catching on the rapalas, allowing for inshore anglers.

IZ Climate: Mostly sunny & warm days with temps from 68 nights to 90 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Some westerly winds from 10-14 knots during mid- week, but mostly good sea conditions with favorable temps that reflected 82 inshore and 84 offshore.

Best Bait/Lure: Rigged baits for the billfish were still best.
Bait Supply: Remains very plentiful inside the Bay.
