THE ARIES SPORTFISHING FLEET
Just when we thought the dorado counts were going to soar into the
late spring, they didn't. While there was a week of sustained dorado
catches, the bite came to a screeching halt and the fishing reverted
to the doldrums format of weeks gone by. The overall combined fish
report for 19 offshore fishing days reflected 3 striped marlin, 2
sailfish, 1 mako shark and 7 dorado.
Mazatlan Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days with intermittent
passing clouds and temps that ranged from 61 nights to 84 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Good water temps and clarity that ranged from 72
inshore to 75 offshore and wsw surface winds to 12 knots.
Best Fishing Area: None reported as the boats fished a wide area.
Best Lure/Bait: Slow trolled rigged mullet were the best bait
producers for the week.
