LOS BARRILES SPORTFISHING

Los Barriles fishing report is brought to you by Canyon Coolers

CONDITIONS

It’s really starting to warm up here in the East Cape. The air temp is right around 90° and the water is holding around 85°. The water color is still clear & blue.

BAIT

Ballyhoo and sardinas were available in front of Palmas de Cortez Hotel.

ROOSTERS

The rooster bite is going full speed right now. If a quality rooster is on your bucket list, now is the time to book a trip.

DORADO

The dorado bite is improving but still not in like in years past. However, the quality is the best I have seen in many years. That is probably due to the lack of pressure last year.

MARLIN

The marlin bite is still the best bite in town right now. 2 to 4 fish per day is normal. The billfish are stacking up 2-6 miles in the banks. Most fish coming on ballyhoo.

TUNA

The tuna bite continues to be fantastic. We are having good success 35-45 miles out, fishing under porpoise. Fish range from 12-30lbs. Almost every angler targeting tuna is returning with limits.

WAHOO

Not too many wahoo caught last week but, a friend did shoot 2 yesterday. He said “they are here”. He went on to tell me that he saw a lot of fish. So we know there are here, just nobody fishing for them due to the wide open tuna and marlin bite.

Overall the fishing has been off the charts. That’s a wrap on your Los Barriles Fishing Report. I feel like the reports all almost all the same. But it is, what it is. The weather is great and the fishing is even better.

RESERVATIONS

We are taking reservations almost every day now and July is 50% full. If you are planning to visit and fish the East Cape this year…whether with us or another charter, you should make your reservations as soon as possible. We are anticipating a very busy schedule this summer. Click here to view our availability

CONDITIONS

Great weather again last week with the exception of one day of wind. The air temp is right around 90° and the water is holding around 85°. The water color is still clear & blue.

BAIT

Ballyhoo and sardinas were available in front of Palmas de Cortez Hotel.

ROOSTERS

To be perfectly honest, we only fished for roosters one day and didn’t have a lot of success. But, thats fishing as they say. More than likely it was due to the big winds we experienced the day before. Most anglers are choosing to fish the wide open tuna and marlin bite.

DORADO

The dorado have also not shown in huge numbers yet. Still only a few fish being caught every day. However, there were a couple of big bulls taken last week. Hoochies and ballyhoo are the ticket!

MARLIN

The marlin bite is still the best bite in town right now. 2 to 4 fish per day is normal. The billfish are stacking up 2-6 miles in the banks. Most fish coming on ballyhoo.

TUNA

The tuna bite remaned hot again last week. We are having good success 30-40 miles out, fishing under porpoise. Fish range from 12-30lbs. Almost every angler targeting tuna is returning with limits.

WAHOO

Not too many wahoo caught last week. My guess is that it’s due to the tuna bite going wide open and not many people targeting them. However, they are here.

CONDITIONS

Great weather again last week. The air temp ranges from the low 80’s to high 80s and the water is 75-76° and the water color is clear and blue.

BAIT

Ballyhoo, Sardina and Cabilito were available in front of Palmas de Cortez Hotel. 

ROOSTERS

We had good rooster fishing last week. Some nicer models showing up in the mix. The water is now at 76° and warming every day. As a result we should see the rooster bite continue to improve.

DORADO

The dorado have also not shown in huge numbers yet. Still only a few fish being caught every day. However, there were a couple of big bulls taken last week. 

MARLIN

The marlin bite is the best bite in town right now. 1 to 3 fish per day is normal. 

TUNA

The reason for the delay in last weeks fish report is all the tunas fault. I heard there were some tuna caught on Sunday. So I wanted to see if Monday would be the same or possibly better. Well, it was very good tuna fishing for the 4 or 5 boats that ventured 30miles off the beach. All boats limited out on tuna from 10 to 30lbs. 

The African pompano bite stayed strong last week. Fish up to 20lbs.

WAHOO

A couple more wahoo were caught this week. Hopefully more will arrive with the sea warming.

CONDITIONS

The weather has been absolutely perfect again this week in the East Cape. The air temp is right around 80° and the water is 73°-75°. The water color is clear and blue. However, there were a couple days of wind which held the water temp from rising.

BAIT

We finally have quality sardinas available a 100yds south of the the hotel. I mean nice 3 to 4″ sardinas. I haven’t seen them this big in the 3 years I’ve lived here. Ballyhoo are also available in front of Palmas de Cortez Hotel. 

ROOSTERS

More and more are continuing to arrive. The water is now at 75° and warming every day. As a result more and more roosters are being caught.

DORADO

The dorado bite is still not wide open yet. A few fish each day.

MARLIN

Several nice strippers were landed this week. The marlin bite was good last week. 1 to 3 fish per boat.

MARLIN

Several nice strippers were landed this week. So the marlin bite is definitely on.

TUNA

It appears that I spoke too soon. The tuna showed up for a cameo down to the south. However, they vanished within two days. Let’s hope they stick around this week. In the tuna’s absence, the African pompano bite went wide open last week. Fish up to 20lbs. We also had some yellowtail in the mix this week.

WAHOO

A few wahoo were caught this week. That’s a great sign being so early in the year.
