PEZ REY FISHING REPORT

Dos pescadores, dos peces.

con la otro mitad del doble.

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.

INSHORE

The Snapper have been very active and we are still seeing them come after trolled livebait and lures, as well as poppers and plugs that are cast to structure.  Roosterfish, as always are our first target and we are seeing them every day.

OFFSHORE

More Sailfish are being seen now but Dorado are still the main event with everybody getting to fight one everyday.

FRESHWATER

The rivers are perfect now for light tackle trips.  Machaca, Roncodor and Snook are all eating well, but we are catching mainly Machaca.  With the rivers starting to settle and the volume decrease, the Machaca are starting to spawn so hungry fish are jumping on almost anything that hits the water.

Big smiles from Tim Swicegood and his buddy.

INSHORE

Some large Snapper are being caught with live bait as well as with poppers around structure.  The Roosterfish have been active around structure and around the beaches.  Some very large Jacks have been caught this week as well.

OFFSHORE

Dorado are everywhere and boats are landing double digits some days.  Sailfish are being raised everyday and an occaisional Blue Marlin have been seen recently.

FRESHWATER

The rivers are perfect right now for float fishing with lots of Machaca ready to take flies or lures.  The Roncador have spawned and streams of fry are running up the banks bringing Snook, Machaca and even Ronco’s to the banks to eat.

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.

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.

Steven was fisherman of the day but...

...the only tonto without a slicker.

Inshore – Roosterfish have been eating a little bit of everything, Lookdowns, Goggle-eyes and Bluerunner.  This week, nice Snapper have been taken around structure and Snook have been caught close to the beaches and river mouths.

Offshore – Sailfish are being seen daily but aren’t necessarily eating what they come up to.  Dorado are happy to eat just about anything, and Tuna are with the birds and Dolphin.  Bottom fishing on seamounts has been productive, rain or shine.

Freshwater – The rivers are nice but constantly changing color and levels so the fishing is unpredictable.  When it’s good though…
