The catches from Puerto Morelos slid back a little this past week for no apparent reason. Possible fewer fishing days but usually, it's the numbers of shorter fishing days. Guess that's just fishing? We normally see 14-16 species of mixed bag catches but this week, only a 10 fish mixed bag was reported. Nevertheless, it was still fun fishing and the weather was inviting, too, with very light surface breezes over the water and just enough to stay cool. Overall catches for the 27 fished days reflected 2 sailfish, 2 blackfin tuna, 9 wahoo, 7 Sierra, 19 bonito, 26 Atlantic barracuda, 8 grouper, 15, triggerifsh, 8 soapfish, 15 triggerfish and 6 snapper.

The big Atlantic barracuda took over this past week and were the mainstay of the caribbean critter action from the Marina El Cid Fleet in Puerto Morelos. These toothy creatures are running in the 20-40 lb. ranges with an occasional bigger fish showing up in the mix. The billfish catches slowed up a little this past week but for no apparent reason as the water temps and clarity are near perfect. ...... Read More
