IN GENERAL: Our Jacks or Better Rooster Tournament and Guide Challenge are certainly drawing the attention. Slots for both events are filling up fast. Don’t miss out on the first ever Rooster on the Fly event in Zihuatanejo. http://www.bajafly.com/jacksorbetter.htm The 78º blue water has moved in substantially in the last week, to about 10 miles. But, the fishing has not followed accordingly. There are several blue marlin being hooked every day, and fishing for them is about as good as it gets. The 2-3 pound black skipjack tuna, a favorite marlin meal, are here in abundance and the marlin are mostly being taken by slow trolling a live skipjack. The “Vamanos I,” with Captain Ruben, has taken 8 marlin in the last two weeks. He is getting at least one shot at one each day he fishes. The sailfish action is still at a 1 to 2 fish per boat average, and the tuna still have not shown within 45 miles.
