The dorado action at the buoys is still providing some good action, but it is not in the high numbers of a couple of weeks ago. Still, the average is 9 dorado per super panga fishing day and that does make for some fun fishing. The overall catches for 6 super panga days reflected 53 dorado and 1 sailfish. The offshore fishing is offering a good chance for sailfish and reflected about a 60% chance to land a sail, with a few dorado and yellowfin tuna in the mix. Overall offshore counts for 12 days fished reflected 7 sailfish, 7 dorado and 11 yellowfin tuna, (to 85 lbs.). According to Geronimo Cevallos, they had a couple of the bigger black marlin hooked up this past week, but none were landed.

Mazatlan Climate: Partly cloudy days with temps from 76 nights to 93 daytime highs and humid.

Sea Conditions: Excellent! Mostly calm with light surface breezes and temps stable at 86-87 degrees

Best Fishing Area: The shark buoys for the dorado and out to the southwest, 23-30 miles for the sailfish and tuna.

Best Bait/Lures: Live bait best for the dorado. Sailfish on the rigged trolling baits, (mullet).
