The fishing had been tough enough and then, add the full moon to the
mix, making it even more difficult this past week. While the water
temps are inching up slowly, the anglers and skippers are anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the dorado masses at the buoys, which should
start in the next few weeks. The overall offshore counts for 24 days
fished reflected 3 sailfish, 8 stripers, 1 mako shark and 9 dorado,
(to 40 lbs.) Even the inshore super pangas had difficult fishing
this past week and reported 13 vaquetas, 5 pargo, 1 corvina and 14
lenguas for 9 fishing days.

75-76 offshore, calm for the most part with very light tropical breezes.

Best Fishing Area: Continuous to be isolated single fish catches
with no special area better than another.

this week.
