water that just won't go away


May 27-June 2
Fishing has proven to be very difficult with the super green water that just won't go away.  Green water and lack of bait makes it definitely more challenging.  Hard to believe that just one week earlier waters were full of dolphin as far as you could see and you guessed it, tuna underneath.  With the tuna bite lasting only 2 days, they came and were gone just like that.  Then that pesky green water came in and just kept hanging around.  Although fishing was difficult, the Ulises Ochoa group were able to pull out some dorado at the North end of Cerralvo island, some large rooster and some snapper.   One of the fisherman in the Ochoa group did catch a large Dog Tooth Snapper weighing about 45 lbs near Punta Arena.  It was the best catch of the week.  Also, one of the locals caught 2 wahoo at the South end of the island.  Most fisherman hung close to Punta Arena and caught alot of large rooster and snapper. Hopefully the water will change back to blue soon and the bait will return.

This week the waters are starting to look more normal and are turning blue again. We are hoping it will bring with it more bait and fish. The last couple weeks have proven difficult with the really green waters not only in close but also out past the 88 bank. Bait is still difficult to catch but fisherman have been able to catch some very big rooster near Punta Arena. Some dorado have been caught farther South in the 25lb range and hopefully they will keep heading North for some closer catches. This week Mr. Hoyt and his friend Mike fished and caught some big rooster as well as Toro.
