Hola Amigos,
This week the fishing slowed down a bit down here in the East Cape. We are still seeing very good numbers on the yellowfin tuna, with a few boats catching up to 19 tunas per boat. The dorado fishing remains quite slow for this time of year, with only a few dorado coming in each day. The Marlin fishing was descent this week with quite a few stripe marlin being landed and quite a few that broke off. There was also a nice 400lb. blue marlin landed out of Playa Del Sol. Inshore, the roosters are still around and there have been some nice size roosters being caught from Buena Vista to Punta Colorada. The wahoo bite continues to be very good for this time of year, with another 8 wahoo landed this week. The winds played a big part in the substandard fishing this week that made for rough seas and tough fishing conditions. This is not typical for this time of year and caught most of us off guard. We do expect the winds to lay down next week and the fishing should pick up quite a bit.
Until next week!
