Mazatlan Fishing Report
8-12-2010
Larry Edwards
Overall, Mazatlan had a very slow week for passengers and charters
but on the brighter side, the Aries III, skippered by Captain
Martin Raygoza, led the husband & wife team of Mr. & Mrs. Wayne
Graham, (Kathryn, Alberta, Canada) to a 220 lb. yellowfin tuna
trophy, the largest fish for the week. The fish ate a rigged
trolling bait, (mullet) and took Mr. Graham a total of 75 minutes to
land on 80 lb. test equipment. The offshore fishing for 9 days
reflected 2 sailfish and the single 220 lb. yellowfin tuna. The
inshore super panga action fared much better and reflected an average
of 6 dorado per boat day as the overall catches for 5 days fished
reflected 31 dorado, 5 pargo and 6 cochitos for their efforts. The
inshore fishing was unquestionably offering sustained activity
throughout the days and kept the anglers at a high interest level
with the many opportunities for dorado catches.
Mazatlan Climate: Mostly cloudy days with some scattered T-storms and temps that ranged from 79 nights to 91 daytime highs and raised humidity levels.
Sea Conditions: Excellent water temps throughout the area and stable at 87 degrees. A greenish tint to the water out to about 20 miles, then bluing and clean with light surface breezes at 5-10 knots.
Best Fishing Area: The tuna was taken at 22 miles out to the southwest o the Marina El Cid. However, there was no confirmed fish concentrations in any of the areas.
Best Lure/Bait: All of the offshore fish were taken on rigged trolling baits.
Bait Supply: Both live and rigged baits were readily available throughout the week.
