PEZ REY FISHING REPORT

Dos pescadores, dos peces.

Rastamen vibration.

INSHORE

The rains are letting up in the mountains and the river mouths are running clear so the action is picking up with more Snook and Snapper moving around now.  And Roosterfish are being caught daily.

OFFSHORE

There are still a lot of Dorado being caught daily with double digits very common.

Sailfish are being seen daily with one or two being boated but Dorado are taking everything that is being trolled so Sails have to get in line.

FRESHWATER

The rivers are already starting to go down but the fishing is great with Machaca spawning and Roncador and Snook chasing fry.

Doggy teeth!

INSHORE

The fishing has been great for Snapper recently with some nice 20 to 30 pounders landed in the week.  Roosterfish are eating Goggle eyes and Lookdowns and the Jack Crevalle are keeping people busy these days.

OFFSHORE

Sailfish are being caught daily but not in large numbers yet.  Dorado are everywhere and are being caught in double digits.

FRESHWATER

The rivers are nice right now with the levels still high but the waters aren’t roiled like they were through October.  Machaca are eating as are Roncodores and small gualaje Snook.

INSHORE –

The fishing has been very good for the conditions recently.  The rains have just started to let up,(two days now with no rain) so the rivers have been clear at the mouths.  Yesterday clients caught Mackerel, Jacks and Snapper.

OFFSHORE –

Dorado are still the main target but debris lines are not as common now so trolling is the way to find them.  There are plenty.  Sailfish are being seen daily and some Marlin have been raised recently.  Wahoo are still being seen around structure.

FRESHWATER –

The rivers have been looking good and fishing well.  On Saturday Machaca in the 3 pound range were eating size 2 weighted streamers in the afternoon on the lower part of the Savegre.

INSHORE – Roosterfish, Snapper, Mackerel, Corvina, Trippletail, Jack Crevalle and others were caught this week inshore.  Rains are still falling in the afternoons and creating current lines close to shore as well as farther out.  Fishing has been good with Banglas, and Lookdowns but fish have been taken on artificials.

OFFSHORE – Lots of stuff floating along current lines is producing good numbers of Dorado and Sailfish.  The trash lines have been anywhere from 10 miles to 25 miles out and most of the time there are multiple lines found.  Marlin are being caught weekly but not in large numbers yet.

FRESHWATER – Rain, rain, rain has been keeping the rivers from being clear but the higher water is not a problem so much as water color and the amount of debris floating down stream.  When they are fishable, the fishing is great for Machaca and Snook.  Contact Pez Rey for a report on recent conditions.

Fishing by trash is fun!

INSHORE – The fishing has been very fun and varied recently.  There have been 30 plus pound Roosters taken this week and well as Corvina, Mackerel, Snapper, and Dorado.  One day folks on a half day trip were able to run 6 miles offshore and fished to a trash line that was holding juvenile and bull Dorado.

OFFSHORE – The fishing has been great for Dorado because there is a lot of flotsam and jetsam around offshore.  There have been trash lines anywhere from 9 miles to 20 plus and a lot of the time there are two lines, one closer inshore and one at the edge of the blue water.  Marlin and Wahoo are being caught around offshore structure and Sailfish are being taken around trash and structure.

FRESHWATER – The rivers are still going up and down with the rains but there are days where the conditions are great.  One day can be high and carrying debris and the next can be calm and fishable.  Check with us for a daily report on water conditions.

Rooster-face!

INSHORE – The fishing has been very good with a variety of species being seen this week.  Corvina, Snapper, Mackerel, Dorado, Trippletail, and of course Roosterfish were all caught this past week.

OFFSHORE – The fishing has been all about Dorado.  With the heavy rains that are falling locally, there has been plenty of debris floating along the current lines to keep Dorado interested.  There have been Marlin and Wahoo taken on the offshore sea mounts but not on a daily basis.  Sailfish are being caught daily in small numbers.

FRESHWATER – The rivers have been high and dirty but some days are fishable and are fishing good.  Machaca are the main species.  Contact Pez Rey to see how the rivers are at the moment.

Trippletail on the fly. Mmm-mmm-good!

Inshore- This week we have had a lot of rain which has dropped the water temperatures.  On Tuesday we had some readings of 75 to 76 degrees.  The Roosters are still active with another client getting their first Gallo.  With the rains, debris from the rivers has washed out and some days forms up nice “trash lines” where the fishing can be great.  The lines move and change on a daily basis, some days being thick and the next undefined.  These lines move from 5 miles off the coast to 15  - 20 miles, usually.  Last week we found some trash inshore and fished to Dorado and Trippletail with flies.  We took 5 decent berrogate (Tripple’s) and some 15 lbs. Dorado.  Sight casting to fish under the debris is productive as well as chumming.

Offshore- The bite has been different daily but Dorado are still the big target in the blue water.  One boat had 15 over 20 lbs in one morning with Wahoo also being taken.  Sailfish are being caught every day but right now everybody is fixated on Dorado.

Freshwater – The rivers took a pounding this week with heavy rains falling for hours each day.  Surprisingly the smaller creeks and canals can run clear depending on the proximity of recent rains, but the big drainages are still flowing large and unpredictably.

Inshore – The river mouths are dirty this week with a lot of rains in the mountains.  This produces a large “current line” that can hold Snook and Corvina that patrol in and out of the color changes.  This week Captain Pepsi caught Roosters in the 20 to 30 lbs. range, Mackerel, Trippletail and Trevally.

Offshore – There has been a lot of debris pushed out into the ocean by the rains and the Dorado are everywhere.  Sailfish were caught this week by every boat but Dorado is what is keeping everybody busy.  Wahoo have also been taken around the seamounts.

Freshwater – The rivers are really hit or miss right now with the color and flows changing daily.  Contact us to see what yesterday’s conditions were like.

Hello Folks!  Sorry for the absence of fishing reports but I wanted to leave the photos of my best friend Bella up at the top of the page as a tribute for a while.  Sorry for any inconvenience.

Fortunately the fishing has been as good as always.

Inshore – The Roosterfishing is great with Gallos being seen every trip.  Jacks, Mackerel, Trevally and Snapper are caught regularly and Snook and Corvina are near the shore and rivermouths.  There have been some big swells so we recommend that you check with us to see what the shore fishing will be like.  We have had Humpback whales in the area with calves for the past two months and we are spotting them almost daily.

Offshore – Sailfish are caught daily and sometimes not far out.  Dorado are everywhere, outside of the coastal current lines.

Freshwater – The rivers are for the most part high and dirty, but they clear up from time to time, so contact us to see if the conditions allow a trip.  The Machaca have been eating flies as well as spinners when they can see them.

Alexia's first fishy!

Happy to see the Whales.

Su primer Gallo!

Tambien, su primero!

Hooray! Up she rises off the starboard bow!

Arrr! Tharr she blows matey!

The Roosterfish almost outweighs her!

Do we have any krill flies for Humpbacks?

Inshore – Great fishing these days with just about everything being caught inshore including Roosterfish, Snook, Snapper, Mackerel, Tuna, Skipjack, Bonito, even Sailfish and Wahoo are being seen.  The Humpbacks we are seeing are about the only thing we aren’t prepared to cast to.

Offshore – More Sailfish are being caught recently but Dorado are still the most consistent action.  Tuna are being caught when they are closer to the surface and being followed by predators.

Freshwater – The rivers are fishing great but are up and down and all around right now and the color changes frequently.  Call us for daily updates.
