Report Date:
http://www.cortezcharters.comAnother fine week of wide variety catches continued from Puerto
Morelos this past week and the only glitch for the week was a 1-day
port closure due to adverse weather conditions. Overall fish counts
for a combined total of 20 fishing days reflected 1 sailfish, 12
grouper, 15 red snapper, 38 bonito, 8 Atlantic barracuda, 1 shark, 8
king mackerel, 7 triggerfish and 1 dorado. Every time the lines go
in the water in this area provides an opportunity for a different
catch and tends to add to the fishing highlights for the day.
PM Climate: Mostly cloudy days and one windy day causing the closure
of the port. Temps ranged from 64 nights to 85 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Overall, the wind was up a little for the week and
caused some choppy conditions for the anglers, but the water temps
were very good and held stable at 80 degrees and excellent clarity.
Best Bait: Continues to be the rigged and un-rigged ballyhoo, fresh
caught in the area.
