Fish Report for 2-23-2012
The Striper action was good this week at Mazatalan, but not as good as last week
2-23-2012
Larry Edwards
The striper action continues in the offshore waters at Mazatlan but not quite as good as the week before. According to our Mazatlan reporter, Ms. Kitcia Ceja, most every boat had 1 or 2 opportunities for a marlin this past week with some of the boats checking in with a Mako shark. "We only had 3 dorado for this reporting period but they were all in the 25-35 lb. ranges. Our inshore fishing remained good, too, with lots of action for the anglers. The overall offshore fish counts for a total of 14 days fished reflected 11 stripers, (5 released) 4 Mako sharks and 3 dorado. Our inshore super pangas, reporting in for a total of 7 days fished, reflected 3 stripers, (2 released) 5 Corvina, 34 Jack Crevalle, 85 white snapper, 26 perch and 6 triggerfish. When you average out the inshore fish counts it reflects about 22 fish per boat per day and that usually amounts to a fun fishing day for the anglers".
Mazatlan Climate: Partly cloudy days with temps from a cool 49 nights to 79 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Mostly calm seas this past week with light & variable surface breezes at 5-10 mph. Inshore sea temps at 67-68 degrees and rising to 70-71 in the offshore waters at about 19 miles.
Best Fishing Area: Starting at bout 20 miles southwest of the Marina El Cid and working outbound from there
Best Bait/Lure: The rigged trolling baits were the bait of choice this past week for all of the offshore fish, including the Mako shark and dorado.
Bait Supply: Remained very good for both, live bait and fresh caught trolling baits.
