Unfortunately, the water temperatures throughout the Mazatlan region are starting their annual decline and the offshore fishing has been affected. This is a normal phase for Mazatlan at this time of year and normally, the sailfish and dorado move to new locations and the stripers move in, along with more mako sharks and yellowfin tuna. It take a week or so for the fish to settle and adjust to the changes. The offshore catches for 28 fishing days reflected 2 stripers, 4 sailfish, 3 mako sharks, 1 yellowfin tuna and 6 dorado. The inshore super pangas, reporting for 7 fishing days, reflected another week of limit fishing for the sierra for those that wanted to stock-up on the best ingredient for ceviche, 34 pargo, 3 jack cravelle, 1 barracuda, 55 cochitos and 35 cabrillas.

Mazatlan Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days with temps from 55 nights to 83 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions: Calm waters, light surface breezes, temps from 69 inshore and slowly rising to 72-73 offshore.

Best Fishing Area: The boats are searching wide areas for the fish as there is no specific central location at this time.

Best Lure/Bait: Rigged trolling baits worked best for the billfish.
