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.

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.

It's a tripple (with a Trippletail)!

Inshore – Variety this week has been the norm.  On one half day trip Pepsi’s client’s landed 3 Roosterfish of 25lbs. and up, 2 Snook in the 10 to 15 lbs. range, a 15 lbs. Cubera Snapper, a couple of Sierra Mackerel and some Trippletail.  Other days have seen Roosters, Snapper, Snook, Mackerel, Jacks, Skipjack, Bonito, Needlefish, and others.

Offshore – Dorado are the hot item and there are plenty around.  Wahoo and Sailfish are being caught also but Dorado are the main bite.

Freshwater – Machaca are still being caught as well as Snook and Roncador but the conditions are changing rapidly these days so it’s best if you contact us when you are in the area to see what it’s looking like.

Gonzalo's first Rooster!

Su primer Gallo!

Inshore – The water has been very green recently but the fishing has not slowed up.  Roosters, Snook and Jacks have been providing the most action with live bait and Skipjacks have been eating flies when they are feeding.  Eduardo, Enrique and Gonzalo Calvo fished last week and caught Roosters, Snook and Jacks with Gonzalo landing his first Rooster.

Offshore – There are Dorado everywhere, but recently we have seen thousands of small (10 to 20 lbs.) being caught.  The sea mounts are still fishing great and Sailfish are being caught farther out.

Freshwater – The rains are starting to play with the water conditions, which are changing almost daily.  The volume isn’t a problem for the fishing as much as the water color.  We recommend contacting us for current updates on the river conditions.  Last week clients caught 1 to 3 lbs. Machaca and Snook on the fly.

Father, son and their first Roosterfish

"Make it look like I caught it!"

Inshore – On Friday, Captain Pepsi had 3 Roosters to the boat by 8 AM and then went looking for Snook in the river mouth where they caught fish up to 20 lbs., and then they finished their half day trip by chasing Jack Crevalle that were feeding on the surface.

Offshore – Lot’s of Dorado!  They are being caught everywhere, especially around structure and debris.  Fly casting is productive when we can find floating shelter.  Wahoo and Sailfish are being taken but not in large numbers like Dorado.

Freshwater – The rivers look great color-wise, but are flowing quickly making wade fishing very difficult.  Float trips are productive for Machaca, Snook and Roncador with flies and spinning lures.

The end of an epic fishing day!  Do you Sea turtles?

The end of an epic fishing day. Roosters in the morning and Machaca and Snook in the river in the afternoon. Show us your eggs! (Do you Sea turtles?)

Inshore – The action has been great on Roosters with live bait and Jacks with anything that moves.  The Snook are happy to eat anything that swims if you can get it in the surf or in the river mouths.

Offshore – Fishing on the sea mounts has been very productive.  Peter Mosby and Eric Hansen fished the Viente Seis for one day and were able to chum up Dorado, Amberjack, Rainbow Runner and a variety of smaller reef fish.  Mr. Mosby landed 3 species on the fly and lost a really nice bull Dorado to bad tackle.  Mr. Hansen landed his first saltwater species (Triggerfish) on the fly and landed his first Dorado.

Freshwater – The rivers are getting big and the currents are strong but the fishing is still good.  Mr. Mosby and Hansen floated the rio Savegre after a morning of catching Roosters inshore, and were able to catch Machaca, Roncador and Snook on the fly.  They even had time after their epic fishing day to sample local cuisine, … Sea Turtle Eggs.

Snook at this!

Inshore – The fishing has been great with Roosters being caught daily and Snook, Corvina and Snapper also being found around the river mouths and structure.  The rivers are starting to fill up so the mouths are big, but are still home to 10 to 30 lbs. Snook.  There are many Pacific Jack Crevalle in the area and active schools are being seen daily.

Offshore – Dorado are being caught everywhere, and Wahoo are being found around sea mounts and debris.  Sailfish are being seen in smaller numbers but are still being caught.

Freshwater – The rivers are getting big, and are changing color with every rain storm in the mountains.  The flows are up but the fishing is good with Machaca, Snook and Roncador being caught on every trip.

Nice Rooster for Wyoming Cowboy Melissa Harris!

Inshore – Roosterfish, Snook, Corvina, Trippletail, and Pacific Jack Crevalle all were caught by Pez Rey clients this week, among them was  Melissa Harris who caught her first Roosterfish on Sunday with Captain Pepsi.

Offshore – The Sailfish and Dorado have been active with most boats getting to fight Sails and most bringing Dorado home for dinner.  Marlin are still being seen over 25 miles out.  A good bite has been on at “bajo 26″ with many Wahoo in the area.  Captain Pepsi, Dennis Arnold and I spent the day on the veinte seis last week and had fish take Repalas, chum and dead bait.

Freshwater – The rivers area flowing at a great level and color now and the Machaca and Roncador are actively responding to streamer flies, as well as spinning tackle.

 

Gallote!

Gallote!

Inshore  - Sardinas are finally showing up in small numbers, late but better than never,  possibly due to the mixed up weather in the area.  There have been overcast days and some rain that is unusual for this time of year, but the fishing has been great with other baits, Mullet and Palomettas.   This week fly anglers have caught Bonito, Pacific Jack Crevalle, Roosterfish, Sierra Mackerel and Dorado with streamers and floating lines while aboard Pez Rey 1 with Leonardo “Pepsi” Maraina.

 

Offshore – The Harry Gray fly fishing tournament is in full swing with the leader at this point being Frenzy with a total of 13 Sailfish, 2 Blue Marlin and 7 Dorado.  All of the boats in the local fleet are fishing this week and the results have been good all around.

Freshwater – The rivers are dropping rapidly but the fishing is still good.  Yesterdays trip with two fly anglers was productive with several Machaca and small Snook to the boat.
