A little weather snuck into the Puerto Morelos area this past week and caused the Port to be closed over 3 days, spanning Saturday through Monday, which allowed for a downturn in the overall variety and numbers of fish. However, by Tuesday morning, the boats were back at the fishing and again reporting successful catches for their angling groups. The "Aries VIII" reported 2 sailfish released and two Atlantic barracuda by noon on Tuesday, reflecting that the integrity of the water remained stable and clean throughout the area. The overall counts for 14 days fished reflected a 9 fish mixed bag catch of 3 sailfish, 2 blackfin tuna, 15 Atlantic barracuda, 6 bonita, 4 Spanish mackerel, 6 grouper, 2 snapper, 7 triggerfish and 1 amberjack.

PM Climate:
Partly cloudy days with temps from 75 nights to 92 daytime highs and humid.

Sea Conditions:
Back to normal with light surface breezes from the easterly directions and sea temps holding at 84 degrees from inshore to offshore.

Best Bait:
Continues to be the ballyhoo, both rigged and un-rigged and skirted.

Bait Supply:
Continues to be readily available on a daily basis for all of the boats.
