Z Fish Report (3/21/19)

 The new pier construction has yet to start, and the parking
lot is still fenced off, with only a token backhoe and dump truck to let us know things are going to happen. The pigeons don't seem to care either way, aslong as they are still getting their bread crumbs from the bollios every morning.  



Offshore (average) surface water temperature - Includes from the 5 - 6 mile mark at the 100 fathom line, then to the 1,000 fathom line being about 32 miles: 83° A cooling trend is starting, which will bring in the yellowfin and blue marlin, but anglers will have to travel a ways for them, because the blue water is pushing out. This is historically normal, and happens around this time of the year.


Inshore (average) surface temperature. From the beach to about 5 miles: 81°. Without a dominate 80° water temperature for the inshore, the rosters leave the area.
Blue water: (Chlorophyll amounts and surface temps from Terrafin SST) Discolored, with no blue water until at least 30 miles.
Rodolfo, working out of Puerto Vicente Guerrero with Mark Denison, found
big  yellowfin about 30 miles out from the port.
Offshore: Still slower than should be expected. Like the last few weeks past, one or two sailfish a day is considered lucky. A few blue marlin are being taken as well as some yellowfin tuna, but figure on a 30 mile boat ride just to start fishing, and on out to 50 miles.
Above  and below: Adolfo, on the panga Dos Hermanos, found some great
 tasting fish this week with the sierra above, a rainbow runner below, and
Adolfo Jr. holding a large pompano.



A decent sized jack crevalle coming to the
panga Dos Hermanos
Inshore: Like last week, the inshore is still holding up very well. Even though the roosters have disappeared, due to the cooler water temperatures, the jack crevalle and sierras are still providing a lot of action.
