http://www.cortezcharters.comThe bite has steadily improved over the past few weeks with the
offshore fishing producing good catches of dorado, a few more
yellowfin tuna, a few blue marlin and a seriously improved bite on
the sailfish. Inshore action, especially around the buoys,
continues to be productive for the dorado, but just a bit farther
offshore has been producing a few sailfish in the super panga
counts, too. Overall counts for the offshore sportfishingg
cruisers for 41 fished days reflected 2 blue marlin released,
(about 275. lbs.) 30 sailfish, 25 yellowfin tuna, 1 mako shark and
207 dorado. The inshore fishing for 7 super panga days reflected 4
sailfish, 2 shark and 25 dorado.
Mazatlan Climate: Mostly cloudy, temps ranging from 78 nights to
90 daytime highs, with PM and night rains.
Sea Conditions: Water temps ranging from 85 inshore to 87
offshore, with good clarity and surface conditions and gentle swells.
Best Fishing Area: Good dorado fishing at the shark buoys and for
the offshore cruisers. Also, sailfish showing in closer with the
warmer waters.
Best Bait/Lure: Rigged baits worked best for the sails and good
for the dorado, too.

A few blue marlin are appearing in the lure patterns, but very few seem eager to bite and only a lucky boat here & there are getting bit. Overall, the combined fish counts for the Gaviota Sportfishing Fleet and the Fish Cabo Fleet declined this......
