THE IXTAPA-ZIHUATANEJO FISHING REPORT FOR THE INDEPENDENT SPORTFISHING FLEET

We had a glowing report come in from Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo today that reflected an incredible surge in fishing action for sailfish, marlin, dorado and yellowfin tuna and a completely renewed bite for the inshore fishing, too, including skipjack, jack crevalles and even some roosterfish showing up in the mix.  According to our local area reporter, Captain Temo Verboonen, the fish are popping up in a very wide area that ranges from about 7 miles out front of the bay and on out to about 20 miles or so and there is very good catching action the entire distance.

IZ Climate:  It was a mostly sunny and warm week with the average daytime temps at 83 degrees and the nights hovering at about 71 degrees.  The humidity ratio is holding at about 75%.  Calm ocean and excellent fishing weather.

Sea Conditions:  In shore water temps at 81 degrees and rising to 82 degrees for the off shore waters.  Pristine blue waters start at about a mile out front of the bay.  Tropical surface breezes flowing mostly from the southwesterly directions at an average of 7.5 mph.

Best Fishing Areas:  An enormously wide area of big game fish, including marlin, sailfish, dorado and yellowfin tuna that are keeping the anglers very busy on this year's beginning of the catching action and it all starts at about 7 miles off shore and continues on for the next 13 miles or so.  There is probably more fish beyond the 20 mile mark but there is just no reason to extend the burning of fuel.

Best Bait/Lures:  Rigged baits are working very well and so are live baits and Cedar plus, tuna feathers and so much more.  The fish are anxious to bite most everything moving through the water right now and the anglers are having terrific fun fishing days.

Bait Supplies:  Good bait supplies that include freshly caught baits for trolling and live bait at $5.00 per dozen.
