Mazatlan was mostly indirectly affected by Jimena, as she delivered a
few days of rough waters and rain, but not much wind, and the Port
was closed for 3 days. Earlier in the week, the boats reflected
catches for 7 days fished that included 4 sailfish and 8 dorado for
the offshore fishery and 10 dorado for three inshore super panga
fishing days. The Fleet & the city of Mazatlan are fine and there
was no physical damage due to the Jimena system.
Mazatlan Climate: Cloudy & rainy for a couple of days with temps
from 74 nighttime lows to 91 daytime highs.
Sea Conditions: Nice this morning following a few days of big swells
and rough seas, with temps at 87 to 88 degrees throughout the area.
Best Fishing Area: Early in the week, the boats fished at 22-29
miles out to the southwest of the Marina El Cid and the super pangas
fished mostly at the shark buoys.
Best Lure/Bait: Rigged baits were best for the sailfish and live
bait best for the dorado.
