Report Date:
http://www.cortezcharters.comAnother fun-filled, action-packed week of fishing from the Marina El
Cid Sportfishing Fleet at Puerto Morelos, that produced an eleven
fish variety for the anglers. The overall catches consisted of 5
yellowfin tuna, 4 dorado, 12 king mackerel, 21 Atlantic barracuda, 19
bonito, 16 grouper, 31 triggerfish, 2 amberjack, 26 snappers, 4
Sierras and 5 soapfish. Puerto Morelos continues to be one of our
favorite family fishing areas that produces a mix of fish that keeps
the interest up for every strike.
PM Climate: Mostly cloudy during the early week and then a few P.M.
showers moved into the area as the week progressed. Temps ranged
from 59 nights to 82 daytime highs and remained shirt-sleeve weather.
Sea Conditions: Water temps held at 79-80 throughout the week and
the waters are bristol and very clear. Mostly light and variable
tropical surface breezes but not enough to create any wind chop.
Best Bait/Lure: Continues to be the favored ballyhoo baits, both
skirt-rigged and un-rigged and trolled at different depths, depending
on the fish being chased.
Bait Supply: Remains excellent and plentiful for fresh ballyhoo baits.
