During the early part of the week, the sailfish were being enormously cooperative and it well for the anglers. We had a report from our Wyoming client, Mr. & Mrs. Mark Kordus, telling us that they had 10 sailfish releases for their 3 fishing days and added a nice 30 lb. dorado to their catch, too. However, as the week progressed, the fishing shut off and the sails, (while numerous sleepers were being reported throughout the area) were refusing to cooperate and were ignoring the rigged trolling baits. There was an occasional sailfish landed but a far cry from the weeks before when they were attacking everything being presented to them. The water conditions seem to be changing a little everyday and the blue water is moving a little farther offshore with each passing day. The inshore fishing continues to be strong and the jack crevalle bite for the bigger fish, (15-20 pounders) remains excellent, along with terrific catches on the Sierra, (Spanish mackerel) and bonito.

IZ Climate: Mostly sunny & clear days with an occasional passing cloud and temps that ranged from 67 nights to 88 daytime highs, (picture perfect weather conditions).

Sea Conditions: The inshore water temps holding good at 80 degrees and rising to 81-82 in the offshore waters. Nearly flat-calm seas everywhere this past week and some minor clarity change that seems to have the fish moving a little farther offshore.

Best Fishing Area: The offshore fishing during the first part of the week was 10-12 miles and has moved offshore to 15-18 miles as the week progressed.

Best Lure/Bait:
Everything was working well in the early week and nothing worked well in the latter part of the week. While lots of fish being seen, they were just not at all interested in the baits.

Bait Supply: Excellent bait supply with plenty of live bait and fresh dead baits for all of the boats.
