Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo Fishing Report

1-15-2015
Larry Edwards

An incredibly upbeat report out of Zihuatanejo area provided by Captain Temo Verboonen. According to Temo the fish were providing a banner week's action that was just short of fish jumping in the boat and almost close enough to the Bay to cast from the beach. Well, not quite but it all started about the 4-mile mark and there was a substantial mix of billfish, both marlin and sailfish, and dorado mixed in. Nearly all of the boats were having 6-plus strikes and hookups everyday and the fishing days were longer due to the closeness to the Bay. Temo described it as a truly fun fishing week for the anglers and the crews. Even the inshore action shot upward with big schools of jack crevalle along the coastline and eager to bite the trolling lures and spinners & poppers. Whatever went out got bit in a frenzy of fast-action fishing. "We are starting to see more & more anglers at the docks everyday. All is good.


IZ Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days with a few passing clouds and temps that ranged from 67 nights to 91 daytime highs and 67% humidity level.

Sea Conditions: Sea temps stable at 84-85 degrees. Surface breezes are balmy and tropical, mostly flowing from the northwest and ranging from nearly calm to about 10 mph.

Best Fishing Area: Very close! Starting at about 4 miles outside the Bay.

Best Bait/Lure: Both were working very well and producing good action for the anglers.

Bait Supply: Excellent bait supply for both, fresh rigging baits and live bait. Rigging baits are a component of every charter and the live baits are $5.00 per dozen.
