The Mazatalan Port was closed for 4 days and the wind and full moonhad an effect

The Port was closed for four straight days with rough seas and heavy winds but settled right back to good fishing and calm seas. According to Ms. Kitcia Ceja, the Aries Fleet fishing reporter, the windy days and the full moon had some downside effect on the fishing but everything is beginning to stabilize back to the good weather and fishing that October is used to. The overall offshore catches for 13
days fished reflected 4 sailfish, (2 released) 20 yellowfin tuna, (20-50 lbs.) and 28 dorado, (12-35 lbs.). The inshore super pangas
reflected 3 days fished that produced 1
sailfish, 1 dorado, 14 sea bass, 6 pargo and 1 red snapper. It appears that the wind and the
full moon have temporarily changed the fishing at the buoys for dorado, even though the water temps and clarity remained stable.
Mazatlan Climate:
Partly cloudy days with long periods of intermittent sunshine and temps that varied from 70 nights to 89 daytime highs.
Best Fishing Area:
Most of the offshore fishing was out to the southwest of the Marina El Cid in the 24-30 mile zone.
Best Bait/Lure:
The sailfish taken on the rigged baits and dorado on the artificials and live bait, along with a few taken on the rigged baits. Yellowfin taken on the feathers.
Bait Supply:
There was no mention of the bait supply this past week with exception to some of the fish being taken on live bait, so I would assume it was in good shape.
