Yellowfin Tuna at Corbeteña, it´s February and I´m writing about Yellowfin Tuna running 130 lbs at Corbetena in February? Warm currents continue from Japan to the west coast cutting off the cold water we are used to getting come this time of the year. Now we´re seeing species we should not really be seeing at our world famous fishing grounds. Yellowfin Tuna are not the only species out there that will surprise you amigos. The season is now upside down and from here out, who knows what´s going to happen. Cookie cutter fishing reports, not here amigo.
Spring like temperatures continue here in Puerto Vallarta which of course is very welcome to the locals and tourist as well. Fishing is incredible as Dorado, Sailfish and Striped Marlin have made their minds up to hang out for a while longer. Plenty of bait in the water and perfect fishing conditions means you can still have that finned fantasy in an eight hour trip. The good news is the fishing is great and while the warm water will eventually turn chilly, for now, it´s time to go fishing!
Lately I have had a many people asking me about global warming, the strange fishing conditions and what I make of them. Well I used to think I actually knew something about our local species, currents, and what we should expect under fairly normal conditions. When it comes to fishing, it will always defy logic. For now we´re seeing summer time species like Dorado, Sailfish and Yellowfin tuna around our world famous fishing grounds. Now why they´re here in the winter, your guess is as good as mine. While we´re having spring like weather during the days, it will also help keep water temperatures up. With warm, swirling currents these strange conditions have persisted and who are we to complain. For now the visitor looking for some great fishing action can actually target fish that should be long gone. Welcome to fishing amigo, it will drive you crazy!
