Another wide-variety report from Puerto Morelos that reflected an 11 fish species in the catches that included another off season sailfish in the mix. The fishing from Puerto Morelos continues to offer anglers an excellent mixed fish catch within minutes of the marina El Cid, due to the rapid drop-off just outside the mouth of the Marina. Game fish come in along that deep wall in search for the small bait fish and offer fun fishing within a half-mile of the Marina entrance.
