Sayulita fishing report July 2023. The fishing report begins off with some exciting news just before all the celebrations July the 4th. There’ll be many big parties here in Sayulita, Mexico along with huge fish to catch inshore and offshore.
We’ll start with the hot Nuevo inshore action. Bay fishing has produced many yellowtail, skipjack tuna, roosterfish, snapper, and mahi-mahi all over the bay. Where have we been catching all these fish? Some of the hot spots have been to Puerto Vallarta, Palo Verde, Bucerias, Los Arcos, and the middle of the bay. Most of these inshore fishing trips have been of the 6 hrs choice. Some of the shorter bay fishing trips have produced good numbers of mahi-mahi and skipjack tuna. There have many days when we caught the fish schooling in the bay and it turned into a nonstop action.
What has been the best method for fishing inshore? Here are a couple of out top performers. The Rapala coupled with some small jigs has been working incredibly well. With this set up you can Sometimes land three or four simultaneously. It doesn’t take long to have a boatload of fish when you are catching them three at a time. Sight casting from the bow has worked all week long and should hold strong all summer. Bring your favorite casting rig or use one of ours for some fun catching fish here in Mexico. Cut bait works extremely well around some of the buoys that have been holding mahi-mahi. Once you get one of these action-packed fish on the line they will keep biting until you run out of fresh-cut bait. This is a fantastic way to catch and land some fast-feeding fish. Last but not least is our favorite fallback method. Live bait. In the summer months, we love to use goggle-eye. These baits work well inshore and offshore. The marlin, tuna, mahi-mahi, sailfish, and yellowtail can’t
resist these baits. When the sardines show up nothing works better than a couple of scoops of sardines thrown in the water to bring up all kinds of pelagic fish for live baiting. When all else fails, we use our troll with natural baits and lures. This seems to work well inshore and especially offshore. As most of our repeat clients know we love the Black Bart lures. Let’s take a look at the offshore fishing in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico.
Rates for fishing in Sayulita, Mexico
Deep sea fishing in Sayulita is always good in July. The waters have warmed up to some nice numbers. Offshore water temperatures are ranging from 84 degrees to 87 degrees. These temperatures are conducive for marlin, dorado-mahi,tuna and the fastest fish on the Pacific Ocean, the sailfish. Most of these pelagic fish are caught around thermoclines and crystal clear waters we see offshore every day.
The bait movement is critical for fishing tuna and sailfish. I always say if you find the bait you will find the fish.
The best bet for offshore fishing is 8 hrs to 12 hrs. The more time on the water the better odds you have of hooking that wall hanger or fish of your dreams.
The hotspots will be out by Punta Mita,Marieta Islands, El Morro,Corbetena and El Banco. Some of the top places to fish in the world for big fish or a fun day.
Come down and join us for a spectacular day of fishing here in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico.
Remember money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy a fishing trip from us and that’s about the same thing.
Happy fourth of July,
Capt. Pete and crew.
