Zihuatanejo Fishing Improves After Hurricane Hillary Passes
9-29-2011
Larry Edwards
Captain Temo Verboonen reported in for an excellent change in the overall fishing throughout the Zihuatanejo area, immediately following the passing of Hurricane Hilary. He said, "the ocean flattened out perfectly and the fish cooperated with the anglers and better yet, it all started near the Zihuatanejo Bay entrance. While not too many boats fishing, those that did had many sailfish strikes for their efforts and good numbers on the quality sized dorado, (lots of fish in the 25-30 lb. ranges). There was excellent surface signs with bird schools, dolphin, bonito and skipjack all over and even an occasional blue marlin chasing around in the schools of fish. The
inshore fishing continues to be good for the roosterfish, a few jack cravelle and African Pampano and the amberjack bite continues at the
rocks. It has been a terrific change in overall fishing and all we need now is more anglers at the dock".
