A truly much improved fishing week from Mazatlan but primarily for
the inshore anglers enjoying the super panga action. While the
offshore fishing results remained in the doldrums, the inshore action
captured "center stage" and reflected a wide variety and mixed-bag
catch of 10 species of fish that included 10 pargo, 1 cabrilla, 42
Baqueta, 16 corvina, 1 cochito, 2 loras, 3 lenguas, limits of
roncachos, 1 conejo and 10 mojarres for a total of 9 days fished.
The offshore waters reflected a single striper for 10 days fished
which reflects the cooler, green water that has moved into the area.
It could easily mean the early beginning of the swordfish and mako
shark season for this area.
Mazatlan Climate: Sunny & warm days with temps to 81 daytime highs and cold nights, down to 44 degrees.
Sea Conditions: Inshore waters at 67-68 degrees and rising to 69-70 degrees offshore at 15 miles and beyond and mostly heavy green tinted all over.
Best Bait/Lure: The billfish was taken on a rigged trolling bait on a blind strike. Shrimp and squid were the preferred inshore baits.
Best Fishing Area: Unquestionably, the inshore fishing provided substantial action for the anglers with constant strikes.
Bait Supply: Remained good for both, live bait and rigged baits.

The fishing for this past week from Cabo San Lucas offered a 50-50 chance for a billfish and it was pretty much "the luck of the draw". While most of the boats saw billfish, getting them to bite was not so easy and then, too, some of the boats spent the entire time fishing the inshore areas that provided some very good action for the Sierra bite in the 2-6 lb. ranges.
