Nuevo Vallarta fishing report October 2022

When  Fall approaches here in Nuevo Vallarta we are hurrying for the upcoming tournaments, the changing of the weather, and the huge fish that will be coming to our shores this October.  I know this is when most places in Canada and the United States are winterizing their boats. Well, we are just getting started here in Mexico.  The Fall season brings many changes and all kinds of pelagic fish. From good eating to some of the hardest fighting fish in the world live here. Let’s take a look at some of these changes and the fish we will be catching this October as Fall rolls around.

nuevo vallarta fishing

A couple of the big changes we have is the weather.  The temperature and the water start to cool a bit here in Nuevo Vallarta. Here in Nuevo Vallarta. The water never gets cold here in Nuevo Vallarta.  This cooling effect really sets off fall fishing into high gear. We will be seeing more marlin, huge dorado, sailfish and an abundance of tuna.  The offshore fishing will be on fire. Plan on enjoying at least 8 hrs. for an offshore trip for these pelagic fish. Not sure about the dates you want to fish, well just give us a call on our toll-free line and we will help you plan your deep see fishing trip for A to Z.  While you are on the phone we can check tides, moon phase and see which day would be best for your fishing trip with us.

One factor that everyone loves to hear is the rainy season will be over in October.  It seems like every October around the 15 th. of October someone turns the faucet off up in the sky and it just does not rain any more. I kind of like it myself. Think about it. Six months of perfect weather, incredible fishing and sunny skies. That combination it hard to beat anywhere in North America. When we start seeing perfect weather, clear skies, crystal clear blue water, all kinds of bait in the water you will know Fall fishing has arrived.nuevo vallarta fishing in the bay

Other than the rainy season is over what other changes will there be?  First and foremost, we start seeing much bigger fish this time of the year. Not only do the fish increase in size, but we see more of them.  The marlin,sailfish and dorados will be here in good numbers. Nothing better than sitting in the fighting chair with a cold corona beer waiting for the two most famous words on any fishing boat.  ( FISH ON ) if you are out marlin fishing with us while we are using ten lb. baits and the reel goes off, you can bet ya got yourself one heck of a fish on the line.  We love trolling those big baits around El Morro, Cortbetena and El Banco.  Just a couple of our favorite fishing places we love during October and the Fall months. There will also be quite a few of sailfish around this season. Nothing wrong with hooking the fastest fish in the world.  There are days during the Fall we see the sailfish schooling in bunches or 10 to 20 fish. We love using pitch baits with light tackle trying to land these ten foot speed demons going across the water at 75 miles per hour. If you are looking for pricing for sailfish or marlin trips check out the 2022 price list or just call our toll-free telephone number 800 430 60 48.  This number goes to Capt. Pete’s direct line.  I’ll be more than happy to answer any questions folks might have and fishing here or any upcoming trips they might have planned here in Puerto Vallarta Mexico.  Some of the frequently asked questions are, will we catch fish,what do we do with the fish after we catch them, can we ship them back to the U.S. or Canada, and what happens when the weather is bad?  These are all legitimate questions that should be asked before booking any fishing trip.

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report for the month of September 2022

This Labor day our fishing report starts off with more great news of what we had last month.  The larger marlin, sailfish and mah-mahi have started to move into our fishing grounds here in Nuevo Vallarta. . The weather has been perfect with the minus passing of a few storms offshore. Not many people know September as one of the better months to fish in Nuevo Vallarta. First, there are less people here with school back in full swing in the United States and Mexico. Second, we have more bait that comes into our bay and offshore fishing area. If you read my fishing reports you will always here me talk about following the bait trail. If you are on the bait you will be on the fish. One of the last factors is it’s still summertime and the days are long.  Sun comes up here in September at 7.30 am and sets about 8.30 p.m. Giving up plenty of daylight hrs. to hunt down any type of fish you may be looking for. September is a great month for dorados, sailfish,marlin,tuna and all the game fish you want to catch in the bay of Nuevo Vallarta. Let’s talk about where we fish in the month of September.sailfish in nuevo vallarta

The bay fishing happens in Nuevo Vallarta to the south side of the bay. Here on the south side of the bay the Los Arcos,Qimixto,Los Animas and Yelapa are always good gashing in the month of September. If you are set up for all the fish we catch in the bay you might see some billfish behind your spread. Happens all the time so keep a sharp lookout on the short corner. The marlin and sailfish love to surprise us by taking a black bart lures of even a sewn-up mullet bait.

A little know fact is that the sailfish love this south side of the bay when the moon if full.  There will half the fishermen that don’t like a full moon and the other half of the anglers love the full moon. I guess I have to be neutral on this point as I have had some incredible days on the full moon and some that have not been great days. Leave us a comment on the full moon debate down below.

The north side of the bay seems better for yellowtail,(sometimes schooling ) Spanish mackerel, skip jack tuna, mahi-mahi and some roosterfish.  We depart from Nuevo some days and get lucky fishing the area of La Cruz all the way up to Punta Mita. The are several favorite fishing spots along this shore of the bay. Palo Verde in one of the best and you never know what will be biting around this knoll. I’ve seen snapper all the way to sailfish in September taking our baits along the beautiful beach area. Be sure and take extra bait in the part of the bay. You might find the fish schooling in this month of fishing here. To see what you can expect to catch offshore please take a look at the offshore fishing report in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico. What are the cost for fishing in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico

nuevo vallarta fishing for roosterfish

This September we will be busy fishing offshore around Labor day. We will be fishing several offshore destinations like the El Morro. The Morro is known for it’s close proximity to Nuevo Vallarta located just outside the bay. The sailfish, marlin and mahi-mahi loves the area. This is just offshore and cab be done in an 8 hr. trip. This fishing area holds bait from the abundance of bait and reefs. The roosterfish and amberjack love to feed in this honey hole of a fishing spot. I’ve also landed huge marlin in September here . Fishing with small tuna or large bonitas of 5 to ten lbs. can produce some very productive fishing.

For the more adventurous angler we have the Corbetena and El Banco. These offshore trips are 10 to 14 hrs. The first Cortbetena hold marlin and tuna all year round. There is always bait there hence the fish congregate around the area depending on the water tempertures and water clarity.  If you have the right tempertures and deep dark blue water. Watch out.  The big fish will be there.

El Banco is about 50 miles offshore and holds everything you can fish for in the Pacific ocean.  This is the mecca of fishing ground out of Nuevo Vallarta. I’ve fished here for over 35 years and know of only one fishing spot that is better. Can anyone guess where it is at ?snapper fishing in nuevo vallarta

As you can see for the month of September we have you cover for either offshore fishing or bay fishing. We have a toll free number to check the weather and fishing reports before coming down.  Just let us know how many are in your group/family and I will personally guarantee you a fabulous day on the water here.

Hope to see everyone out there on the water. Take a look at what other said about our Nuevo Vallarta fishing charters.

This fishing honey hole we call Bay of flags.  Nuevo Vallarta is fast becoming the go-to place for summertime fishing.

Nuevo Vallarta fishing Report July




Fishing in July has some fantastic advantages here in Nuevo Vallarta.  Most anglers, Captains, families, and fishermen know July is one of the best months to fish here in Mexico.  The big game fish come out to play and it all starts around July 4th. There will be a lot of fireworks in the sky and along our coastal waters.  Along with some of the best deep-sea fishing in Nuevo Vallarta. We are also having a marlin and yellowfin tuna tournament this July so you know the fishing will be good.   We have huge Marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi, and the most sought-after yellowfin tuna just to mention a few. If you’re looking for a big game action July is the month you want to be here. There is also some fantastic inshore fishing here in our bay.

In Nuevo Vallarta, rainy season has already started with light rains in the evenings almost every day. Occasionally we’ll have light rains in the morning, but usually, they clear up around 7 or 8 in the morning.  I receive thousands of calls about the weather each month.  For some reason, the weather channel and other website locations on the web have decided to put rain in our forecast every day.  It’s just the opposite.  We have sunny skies every day with light rains in the evening and offer sunny skies all day long.   These rains that we have in the evenings have a couple of effects that really heat up the fishing here in Nuevo Vallarta for the month of July. First and foremost, it brings in all kinds of bait closer which in turn brings in some of the bigger fish following the mullet, sardines, and skipjack tunas. This is great because we’ll be doing a lot of four and six-hour trips over the holidays like July 4th. It’s always a big celebration here in beautiful Nuevo  Vallarta on July 4th even though it’s traditionally not celebrated in Mexico. What we would like you to celebrate is the fantastic fishing that we have during our summer months and in July. It just happens to be one of the best months to fish here in Mexico. When you’re coming down for summertime fishing conditions you’ll just have to decide if you want to have some of the incredible bay fishing or try your hand at going offshore for some of the really big fish that we catch here for the month of July.

sailfish action in Nuevo Vallarta

 

There are several different ways that we fish for the big marlin, tuna, and mahi-mahi. We use pitch baits, kites, lures, and skip baits to bring these fish up in our spreads behind our many options of sportfishing boats. We’ll be using some of our favorite places that we see year in and year out that produce these huge pelagic fish. El Morro is the closest of the places we like to fish it can be done in about 8 hours. One of the world’s most famous places is the Cortbetena and it produces some of the biggest fish of the year here. El Banco is another favorite where we catch some of the winning fish for the tournaments.  Happens year after year. The huge pelagic fish live and feed there. The deep-sea fishing trip is 50 miles out and we need a 12 to 14-hour trip to get there and fish. This underwater fishing spot hole is famous as it is located in thousands of feet of water, then comes up to a low point of 100 ft. Fishing here is almost for sure you were going to come home with a trophy fish. The fishing spot just happens to be one of our favorite places the fish with 5 to 10 lbs.  Baits for these huge Marlin.   Not uncommon to catch the huge Yellowfin schooling as well. So this July if you’re looking for a fun time and a great place to fish for the day we got you covered inshore or offshore fishing.Nuevo Vallarta deep sea fishing

fishing in nuevo vallarta June

 

The Nuevo Vallarta fishing report starts off with the warming of the water around 78 deg. and light rains we have in the evenings during the month of June until the month of October. This helps the inshore and offshore tremendously.  I mentioned last month about the abundance of bait arriving here in bay.  Mullet, sardines, and goggle-eye are just a few of these baits. These conditions will continue throughout the summer months until the Fall.  The only difference will be the arrival of bigger fish and more of them. Some of these incredible fish include marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi, and the most sought-after yellowfin tuna.  The huge yellowfin tunas follow the bait the thermoclines right into the bay.  As of matter of fact, some of them were showing up during the last part of the month.  With the arrival of warm water and so much bait, you can easily see why anglers love the summertime fishing here in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico. There will be numerous families visiting us here in Mexico over the summer months for fishing and what a perfect time to do so.  Let us help you customize a family fishing trip. The bay fishing will be hot as June in Texas. Now that’s hot! Hope you will be able to come down and enjoy the hot action. Be sure and check out our prices here online.

Nuevo Vallarta deep sea fishing

Offshore fishing will start to see more blue marlin and black marlin as the cool water-striped marlin move out to more favorable fishing grounds.  Seems like every time one pelagic species of fish leave our area another shows up just in time to keep the fishing interesting here in our part of the neck of the woods.  Along with the huge marlin, the tuna will pop up around the bay and offshore. With the trade winds and local currents, we have you just never know where they will start to feed.  This is one of the main reasons we use the satellite service( terrafin ) for checking water temp and water clarity before leaving the dock.  This not only cuts down on the time we have to hunt for the fish it gives our boats the upper hand on the other fishing boats.

 

If you are looking for some fun times, fantastic beaches, friendly people, family fun, incredible restaurants, and some of the best fishing on the planet come to Nuevo Vallarta fishing this summer. June is when the fishing really starts to get good here in Nuevo Vallarta.
