An incredibly busy and fun fishing week from Puerto Morelos that provided an enormous mixed-bag variety catch of 14 species of fish and our best report for the year so far. Dorado were the fish of the week and came in some quality sizes to 65 lbs. The Mr. Pillon and son, fishing aboard the "Aries VIII" had a pair of dorado that were at the 105 lb. mark, a 65 pounder and a 40 pounder, along with several in the 20 lb. ranges. The overall catches for 41 days fished reflected 10 sailfish, 58 dorado, 18 blackfin tuna, 35 atlantic barracuda, 1 king mackerel, 12 wahoo, 47 bonito 24 Spanish mackerel, (Sierra) 2 banana fish, 6 triggerfish, 3 grouper, 1 snapper, 2 sharks and 6 amberjacks. The month of March is usually just the beginning of the billfish season that tends to peak in May/June, but this area has been producing a few sailfish almost on a weekly basis for the past couple of months and has all of the appearances of being a banner billfish season.
