Ixtapa - Zihuatanejo Fishing Report

According to Captain Temo Verboonen, the water temps and clarity have
improved through the week and the cleaner water started at the 8-mile
mark and held at 81 degrees, allowing for a good, sustained bite on
the Pacific striped marlin. The sailfish catches remained slow this
week for no apparent reason and the yellowfin tuna bite turned to red-
hot at the 30 mile mark for the folks that wanted to venture the
distance. A near 200 lb. striper was taken aboard the sportfisher,
"Jonee", fishing with a French group, about 10 miles outside the
entrance to the Bay. The inshore fishing is primarily jack cravelle
and the catches are excellent using the Rapala Magnums. Still good
for Sierra catches and a fair amount of bonito but no roosterfish
reported this past week.
IZ Climate: Weather is picture perfect and offering sunny, warm days and warm evenings and nights with temps ranging from 69 nights to 88 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Almost lake-flat-calm! Temps inshore were 76-77 and rising to 81-82 about 9-10 miles offshore. Green water inshore and cleaning at 8-9 miles, offering very good clarity.
Best Lure/Bait: Rigged baits for the bilfish, feathers and cedar plugs for the yellowfin and Rapals for the jack cravelle.
