It's that time of the year when most of the tropical sportfishing areas tend to suffer the loss of a day or two fishing time due to adverse weather conditions and Puerto Morelos endured a port closure day this past week, too. However, this morning reflected good, sunny skies and a pleasant overall day.

Grouper were the fish of the week for most of the anglers and the overall mixed-bag catches for 14 days fished reflected 32 grouper, 10 amberjack, 18 triggerfish, 4 banana fish, 8 snapper, 1 dorado, 2 blackfin tuna, 5 Atlantic barracuda, 14 bonito and 6 Spanish mackerel for the anglers.

PM Climate:
Early in the week was mostly cloudy with windy and rainy conditions that has cleared to sunny, warm and calm today with temps from 71 nights to 93 daytime highs and a humidity level of 94% and light, variable surface breezes.

Sea Conditions:
Calm today with temps holding stable at 86 degrees throughout the region.

Best Bait/Lure:
Continues to be the rigged and un-rigged ballyhoo as the bait of choice for Puerto Morelos anglers.
