Report Date:
http://www.cortezcharters.comVery changeable conditions were the order of the day last week in
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo. Those changing conditions brought with them
inconsistent action as one day would find large concentrations of
Sailfish and then the next they would be gone. Best single day was
turned in by returning New Jersey Angler Mr Herb Houghton who landed
4 Sailfish and lost 2 others while fishing with Captain Adolofo on
the Dos Hermanos 1. Not to be outdone, Captain Chiro on the Bloody
Hook also posted a 4 Sailfish day while fishing with angler Mr.
Shtob. Captain Chiro also reported 3 other Sailfish for three
offshore days and a mixed bag of Yellowtail Jacks, Amberjack, Spanish
Mackerel and Chulas for 2 inshore days. Captain Omero also fishing 1
inshore day reported 4 big Spanish Mackerel, 1 Yellowtail jack and a
handful of Bonitos. The inshore fishing was severely affected by
High tides and large swells. Captain Temo on the Secuestro reported 3
Sailfish in 2 offshore days While Captain Rafa on the Vamonos 1 led
angler Mr. White to a beautiful 40 Lb Bull Dorado.. The blue water
has moved to beyond the 15 mile mark with most of the good Sailfish
activity occurring in the green water between 8 anhd 15 miles. There
is also another hot bite at the 1000 fathom curve ( 25 Miles
Offshore ). No Marlin or Tuna activity was reported last week.
