The catching from the Puerto Morelos area continues to be an interesting mixed-bag of surface and bottom fish that tends to keep the anglers busy throughout the fishing days. Oddly enough, with all of the inclement weather along the Eastern seaboard, it has not had any adverse effect on the greater Puerto Morelos area from Cancun to Cozumel. The overall combined fish count for 14 days fished reflected 11 Atlantic barracuda, 18 bonito, 26 Spanish mackerel, 1 yellowfin tuna, 1 shark, 1 jack cravelle, 1 grouper, 2 triggerfish, 3 snappers and 1 amberjack.

PM Climate: Mostly cloudy with some scattered showers and temps from 75 nights to 92 daytime highs.
