According to Captain Temo Verboonen, the fishing was slow in the early part of the week, both inshore and offshore, but picked up with a vengeance as the week progressed, producing excellent catches of dorado, striped marlin and dorado for the offshore fishing to wind up the week's report period. Same for the inshore areas that turned around as the week progressed and produced very good catches of Spanish mackerel, (Sierra) and even a few dorado that wandered to the inshore areas. Again, though, it was a slower than normal fishing week with very few anglers taking advantage of the good fishing for the latter part of the week.

IZ Climate:
Mostly sunny, warm and clear days and superb evenings, with temps from 70 nights to 92 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions:
81 degrees inshore and rising to 85 offshore. The green water extended from shore out to about 15 miles and then it was very clean & blue outbound from there and by far, the best looking water so far this season.

Best Lure/Bait:
The billfish and dorado were eager on the rigged baits trolled from the outriggers. The inshore fishing was mostly trolling caught fish on the luna lures and rapalas.

Bait Supply:
Good bait supply for both, live bait and rigged baits.
