While a little bit slower fishing this past week, according to Captain Temo Verboonen, the sailfish and dorado are still plenty active and still biting, especially in the area at the 14 miles mark. Temo says the water clears at 18 miles, but the best bite was at 14 miles in the clean greenish tinted water. They also have good reports for yellowfin tuna at the 30 miles mark with a fair showing of blue marlin in the 200--plus lb. ranges. He reports excellent inshore action for big jack cravelle, (20 lb. averages) that chase the poppers and are eager to bite, along with good Sierra and bonito action, too. He says the roosterfish are absent from the area right now, probably due to the cooler, green inshore water.
