The bite has steadily improved over the past few weeks with the
offshore fishing producing good catches of dorado, a few more
yellowfin tuna, a few blue marlin and a seriously improved bite on
the sailfish. Inshore action, especially around the buoys,
continues to be productive for the dorado, but just a bit farther
offshore has been producing a few sailfish in the super panga
counts, too. Overall counts for the offshore sportfishingg
cruisers for 41 fished days reflected 2 blue marlin released,
(about 275. lbs.) 30 sailfish, 25 yellowfin tuna, 1 mako shark and
207 dorado. The inshore fishing for 7 super panga days reflected 4
sailfish, 2 shark and 25 dorado.
