One thing about fishing, I don’t care where you are, that never changes is the fact that everything changes. The only real question is how long will it take for things to change. Change can be good or it can be bad. For us the “change” has been positive. Yellowfin Tuna have moved back into the area, Sailfish are in and out, but mostly in. Blue and Black Marlin are increasing in Numbers and size. Bait is plentiful, Chorras mostly. Those lucky enough to be in Puerto Vallarta are seeing why Puerto Vallarta’s Fishing Grounds are the talk of the world. If you are into Deep Sea Fishing or Big Game Fishing, or Sportfishing, I don´t care what you choose to call it….. The time has come to get your game in gear and enjoy deserted fishing grounds with world class fish. If you want to pretend you’re Hemingway, it wouldn’t be hard to do!
The fishing is great, plain and simple, but the conditions are changing by the day. Large Yellowfin Tuna have moved out for the moment, but they’re out there, you just have to find them. Sailfish and Marlin are picking up, but nothing automatic. Summer in Puerto Vallarta, World Class Fishing in a World Class Location.
So larger fish come into the bay and that is what we are seeing now. Larger fish moving in closer in. Yelapa is seeing 20lb Skippies and bonito. Cabo Corrientes is seeing 70lb Yellowfin Tuna (YF Tuna). Corbeteña and El Banco the YF Tuna even larger. Marlin are picking up in numbers, Dorado are small, Bottom fishing is good at the Marietta Islands and Sailfish are taking over as they usually do come this time of the year. If you are not here fishing, you are missing out on world class conditions, World Class Fish, And a World Class Once in a Lifetime Experience.
Many people for some reason do not know that Marina Vallarta in Puerto Vallarta Exist. It is rated in the top ten private marinas in the world and nobody knows about it. There are 150 shops, 15 restaurants, El Faro Bar where the likes of Mel Gibson visit when in town, besides the view is incredible. When it comes to Hollywood types, PV is where they started and their homes are spectacular old money homes! All in Puerto Vallarta´s ¨other¨ Malicon or Board Walk. The Dollar is strong, hotels and airfare´s are way down. Occupancy is down as well everywhere. We´re still, Two years running now, AARP Put Puerto Vallarta down on paper as the best place on Earth to Retire! The G-20 World Economic Summit happened in Cabo. We had he World Economic Conference of Latin America here in PV. President Obama was here for that as well. We had Tiangue A primarily Latin America Tourist Convention that focuses on world markets, including travel from Latin America to North America
Well friends, with the rain and the agua dulce or sweet water at the surface the Yellowfin Tuna have moved in as they are chasing bait. They´re arny where from twenty pounds to seventy pounds and full of sh-t and Vinegar! At Cabo Corrientes they are around 50 to 70 lbs….
This week we´ve seen Blue and Black Marlin move into our Deep water locations of El Banco and Corbeteña. With favorable water temperatures, available bait, and crystal clear Sapphire blue water, fishing conditions are about as good as they can get. It´s still a little early in the season to find Monster Yellowfin Tuna hanging around the rock, but their smaller cousins are running anywhere from 60 to 150 lbs and that´s not bad!
