The ON again / OFF again pattern continued after the turn of the moon in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo. The full moon and some colder waters temperatures spelled a slowdown in the SAILFISH activity but an increase in the MARLIN activity over the past two weeks.
Returning anglers Ron and Lois Reinhardt fishing with captain Chiro and Efraine on the Vamonos 3 had an excellent day with Lois landing three SAILFSIH and Ron landing one SAILFISH. After landing on shore Mr Rienhardt pulled out his spinning outfit along with some wild eye soft body shad and while fishing in front of the Las Brisas hotel landed a wide assortment of Snapper and Grouper and fought one fish for over 30 minutes only to have to bite through the hook before he had time to beach it. Mr. Reinhardt estimated the snapper to be close to 30 lbs.. Captains Adolofo and Cheva on the Dos Hermanos 1 & 2 teamed up for 15 SAILFISH and 11 Dorados ( one dorado scaling in at 77 lbs ) in 14 offshore days of fishing and 36 BONITOS, 1 GROUPER, 4 ROOSTERFISH, 12 RAINBOW RUNNERS and 12 YELLOWTAIL JACKS in 7 Inshore charter days. Mr. Harvey fishing aboard the Illusion released 2 SAILFISH and also landed an estimated 175 lb Blue Marlin. First time visitors to Ixtapa Zihuatanejo, Mr Mcintyre landed one SAILFISH on his first day out loosing another two. One his second day out the group lost a nice blue marlin and got skunked on their third day offshore. Captain Arturo on the Janeth fishing with French angler Mr. Cinquin 2 SAILFISH, 1 DORADO, 15 YELLOWTAIL JACKS, 17 BONITOS, and 4 GROUPER in 7 days of fishing. Mr. Kirk Wagner fishing aboard the Intruzza landed an estimated 600 lb Blue Marlin on the 17th and Angler Frank Erickson also fishing aboard the Intruzza landed and estimated 500 lb Blue on the very next day. The winter turnover in water temperatures looks like it may be in place and this will spell some trophy fishing ahead for the area.
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo weather: Seasonably beautiful with gentle winds and temps in the upper 80's
Sea Conditions: Calm
Bait Supply: Good
Sincerely,
Stan Lushinsky
