Water Cools, But Humidity Remains High
A
ll in all, the weather has been really good but the only
thing is we cannot shake this humidity. It has been
horrible and really comparable to September weather. We did
have a storm like 3 o’clock in the morning Saturday, well Friday
night or Saturday morning which ever you like. Lots of wind and
some rain but it did blow pretty good.
The water has been cooling down some and we expect it to
continue to cool over the next few days. It has had an effect on
the fishing it seems when the water cools some we are seeing
more action.
The blue marlin fishing has stayed really good all through the
tournament. 400 to 500 lbs. fish have been landed all week. The
blues are being caught from the Light House to Margarita on
live bait and lures. The striped marlin fishing has been still pretty
strong with some good number throughout the fishing grounds.
If you use ballyhoo, lures and live bait for the stripers you will
most likely land some fish. The hot spots for marlin are from
Grey Rock to the Pump House. The sailfish bite is still pretty
good also on the pacific side up and around Ranch Migrino with
most being landed on ballyhoo closer to the beach from ¼ mile
to 2 miles off shore is the hot spots.
The dorado fishing has been wide open from Los Arcos to
Antenna on the Pacific side with most being on the smaller side
but some 15 to 35lbs dorado in the mix. Most of the fish were
hitting ballyhoo, so keep that in mind if you’re going for dorado.
There is good dorado action still happening.
The inshore fishing has just been ok, nothing special with some
small dorado, sailfish and amberjack are what is happening.
There has been some good amberjack action reported using iron.
Small tuna on sardines has been good inshore if you can find the
sardines. From Grey Rock to the Pump House has been the area
for decent tuna and even sailfish action using ballyhoo. Some
small dorado every once in a while, have been landed. It might
be worth grabbing a Panga and going out for a 5 hour excursion
to see what happens inshore.
Marlin are on a great late fall bite off the East Cape. This awesome fish was landed on November 5.
