An unusually slow fishing week for the Marina El Cid Fleet at Puerto Morelos, resulting from the full moon conditions and two days of port closures due to windy and adverse weather conditions. The surface sea temps fell a degree or two this past week throughout the area and the boats fished only a combined total of 10 days that produced a 10-fish variety. The positive side was the continued mixed-bag catches for the area that reflected 2 wahoo, 1 dorado, 16 Atlantic barracuda, 19 bonito, 2 Spanish Mackerel, 5 trigger fish, 5 soap fish, 3 snapper, 2 amberjack and 9 grouper, with the fishing starting at about a mile or so from the Marina El Cid.

PM Climate:
Mostly cloudy days with temps ranging from 63 nights to 84 daytime highs and high humidity.

Sea Conditions:
Calming seas with light tropical surface breezes and temps stable at 82 degrees throughout the area.

Best Bait/Lure:
The daily, fresh caught ballyhoo, remain the bait of choice for this Caribbean port on the Riviera Maya.
