Captain Temo Verboonen reporting for the fleet said the fishing was much improved and the action at just 8 miles from Zihuatanejo Bay was excellent and produced numerous very fast strikes that necessitated being on rod standby to set the hooks. He said there was still a very good supply of dorado throughout the area and nearly all boats were have a 2-4 fish success rate everyday. The marlin numbers fell off some this past week but that may have been due to the boats fishing closer and not getting offshore to the 20-30 mile mark. In shore fishing was very slow for the week and only provided a few boats with mediocre action on the jack cravelle.

IZ Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days with an occasional cloud passing over and temps that ranged from 69 nights to 90 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions: Inshore waters a little cooler than normal but the offshore waters rising to 84-85 degrees and good clarity.

Best Fishing Area: Starting at the 8-mile mark and offshore from there.

Best Bait/Lure: Rigged trolling baits working best for the sailfish and dorado.

Bait Supply: Continues to be readily available throughout the area.
