The Dorado bite continues to be hot at Mazatalan
7-12-2012
Larry Edwards
The superb dorado fishing continues throughout the area and easy limit fishing is the normal everyday fishing result that leaves a lot of time for the anglers to practice their catch & release methods. The offshore cruisers and the inshore super pangas continue to deliver daily limit style fishing for dorado with a range in sizes from smaller fish to 30-pounders. This is genuinely family fun fishing at its finest that will provide youngsters with life-long fishing memories of watching and catching the arial acrobats that explode from the water in full color spectrums of the rainbow. This is the light tackle & fly fisherman's dream that brings so many anglers to Mazatlan during the early summer months. There were a total of 9 offshore cruiser fishing days and 6 inshore super panga fishing days this past week that resulted in limit dorado catches for every fishing day. No billfish were reported this past week and I can only suppose the focus of fishing stuck with the dorado action.
Mazatlan Climate: Partly cloudy days with temps that ranged from 74 nights to 89 daytime highs and a little on the humid side.
Sea Conditions: Overall, it was a mostly calm week with superb water temps at 84-85 degrees and good clarity. With all of the dorado in the area, one would/should wonder where are the black & blue marlin? Stand by, they will be arriving shortly.
Best Fishing Areas: Continues to be at the shark buoys for the dorado.
Best Bait/Lure: The dorado are enormously eager for almost everything that moves through the water, including bare hooks and occasionally, biting at the swivels. Live bait, lures of all makes and models, bait strips, etc., is all working very well.
Bait Supply: Excellent for fresh rigging baits or live baits.
