http://www.cortezcharters.comThe overall billfish bite has slowed for the Puerto Morelos area but
the wide-variety catches continue. This area seems to produce a
different specie of fish for every bite and truly keeps the angler's
interest level at a peak. The Marina El Cid Sportfishing Fleet
reported in for 22 days fished and reflected a 15 fish smorgasbord
that included 1 sailfish, 7 Atlantic barracuda, 6 king mackerel, 1
jack cravelle, 2 amberjack, 1 blue runner, 8 yellowfin tuna, 6
dorado, 1 wahoo, 3 shark, 101 bonito, 2 triggerfish, 1 red snapper, 6
grouper and 7 black skipjack tuna.
PM Climate: Partly cloudy days with an occasional night time rain
shower, temps from 77 nights to 91 daytime highs and humid.
Sea Conditions: Overall, very good for the week with sea temps
holding stable at 83-84 degrees and light tropical easterly surface
winds.
Best bait: Continues to be the rigged and un-rigged ballyhoo for all
of the various fish.
