Captain Temo Verboonen says, "everyday is a bonanza for sailfish and the average releases are 5-6 per day and even more strikes. The action is just a few miles in front of Zihuatanejo Bay. The dorado continue to mix in with the catches and for the most part, they are quality sized dorados in the 15 kilo ranges, (30-plus pound range). When we catch both, sailfish and dorados, its been a complete, good fishing day and the anglers have a quality fresh dinner for their reward of a fine fishing day. We had a blue marlin report from one of the skippers and that made sense given the big schools of bonitos in the area, running with the porpoise schools. The inshore fishing is hot, too, with the reports of Spanish mackerel, (Sierra) and jack crevalle in abundance and producing easy limits. Also, a few big roosters are around the beaches/surf areas but not a sufficient number to focus on just the roosterfish. Overall, our fishing continues to provide fast action everyday and remains very close to the front of the Bay."

IZ Climate: Mostly sunny and warm days and pleasant evenings and nights. Temps varied from 71 nights to 94 daytime highs, nearly perfect weather for everyone. Surface breezes flowed from the westerly directions up to 8 mph.

Sea Conditions: Remained in the excellent mode with temps that remained stable at 86-87 degrees from the shoreline to the 1000 fathom curve and beyond. A small, light swell flowed from the westerly directions.

Best Fishing Area: Continues at the edge of the color break out front of Zihuatanejo Bay, from about 6-7 miles offshore.

Best Bait/Lure: Rigged baits, artificials and live bait are all working very well for the offshore fishing. Pencil poppers, spinning and trolling lures working very well for the inshore fishing.

Bait Supply: Remained very plentiful for both, fresh baits for rigging and live bait at $5.00 per dozen.
