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.

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report May

We all know that May is for mothers day and excellent fishing and Nuevo Vallarta Mexico. If you’re visiting down here to Nuevo Vallarta in the month of May, you’re gonna be able to take out several different fishing trips. In may we have the changing of the waters where cooler water is meeting warmer water. This is great in several ways as the warmer waters bring in the larger fish and all kinds of baitfish. The mullet, shad, sardines, bonitos, and goggle-eye are just a few.may fishing in Nuevo Vallarta

Fishing in May can be rewarding, so make sure you check the weather, water temperature, where the blue water is, and of course last but not least where the fish had been feeding the last couple of days. We always do well in may for several reasons, first and foremost, we have a lot of repeat clients so we’re on the water every day. The next big thing that helps us is terrafin which enables us to see water temps and water clarity. These combined elements help us stay on the fish and help our clients catch more fish. I always say if you find out where the fish are feeding, then you’ll have a fantastic day.

See what the boats and best Captains have been catching in Nuevo Vallarta fishing.

We will be offering short trips in the Bay on our 28-foot super panga four to six hours is perfect we’ve been landing a lot of Spanish mackerel yellowtail snapper and California Bonita additions will hold up for the month of May until the water temperature starts to rise above 78 degrees. Check out the fantastic prices we have online.

We’ll be offering similar trips on our 32 building for groups that are a little bit larger by doing the same kind of fishing ,but can also venture off sure with a 32-footer it’s very comfortable for four people. Our most requested boat the 40-footer is for offshore trips looking for sailfish, marlin, tuna, and the fantastic eating mahi-mahi. These trips are usually 8 to 10 hours or can be extended depending on where the fish are running. Be sure and give us a call at our toll-free number if you have any questions about the fishing conditions, which boat you guys should take, and where the fish are biting.

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report March

When you are in Nuevo Vallarta during the month of March there are 4 things you’ll surely find. The 1st is gonna be some of the friendliest people in the world, also you will notice have incredible weather during March with cool afternoon breezes on our amazing beaches, many fun activities for spring break, and some of the best fishing in the world.  nuevo vallarta fishing for dorados
During the month of March, we’ll see lot of changes in our fishing grounds and techniques. We’ll start to see the water get hot which is a good thing for the larger marlin, blues, and blacks. We’ll see numerous schools of different bait entering the Bay and just offshore. This is a fantastic fishing factor here in Nuevo  Vallarta. With so much bait around the bay and so many fishing options, you will not know which fishing trip to choose. We have it all from bay fishing, overnight fishing, bottom fishing. Deep-sea fishing, offshore fishing, and reef fishing.
I always like to get people to let me know what they want to fish for when coming to Nuevo Vallarta this time of the year. A lot of people don’t realize March is the best month for rooster fishing here in Vallarta. You will love taking one of our 8-hour fishing trips during this time of the year. With so many coastlines here have incredible Bay fishing along with all the other options I have listed above. And we also have incredible offshore fishing. Take a look at our incredible deep sea fishing rates.sailfish in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico
One of my favorite trips is the 8-hour trip, where will fish inside the Bay and then blast offshore looking for some sailfish and marlin. If the marlin action is not so crazy Marlin then we will come back and hit some of those reefs for snapper, amberjack, and the most sought-after roosterfish.  Check out this marlin action in Nuevo Vallarta
One of the surprising things that you’ll find is that these bait balls can pop up anywhere at any time during the month of March. This happens quite often in the bay of Puerto Vallarta and offshore. As you’ve seen before in my fishing reports we have a lot of factors. We look for many fishing factors, but the number one factor you will find is the bait movement. If you find the bait you will differently find the fish. The fish love the right temperature water, clarity, but last but not least is the bait. Everything gotta eaten and so do the fish. So if you’re on the bait You’re on the fish. So the trick is to be on the bait when you got the right tide either coming in or going out. You will surely be catching fish in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico.
When the new folks are coming around Nuevo Vallarta that may need help and choosing the right size boat or the right day just give us a call. We’ve been here for over 35 years helping folks from Bay fishing to 3 – 4-day offshore fishing trips.
If we can’t catch it you don’t wanna hook it
Hope to see everyone out there on the water having good success here and beautiful Nuevo Vallarta, where the friendliest people in the world live.
Until next time we’ll keep a hot fishing rod and a cold beer on the boat waiting for you

The in-the-know anglers enjoy in Nuevo Vallarta for the month of December. Some of the most obvious reasons are incredible weather, sunny skies, fantastic lodging, nightlife, and incredible offshore fishing. Deep-sea fishing in the winter here is a lot like Christmas, ya never know what you are going to catch. The following species of pelagic fish will be had inshore and offshore.

The sailfish, tuna, and marlin love the semi-warm water that we have all winter long. When most of the United States and Canada are putting their boat is storage we are in full fishing mode here in beautiful Nuevo Vallarta. With the warm waters and abundance of bait you just never know what you can catch here. We have all kinds of fish, but the constant changing of water temps and currents keeps us on toes or should I say our boats.  nuevo vallarta december fishi
If you are looking for marlin fishing in the winter we have right here for some offshore fishing. The plan will be for 8 hours to 10 hrs or even 12 hours depending on where the blue water is and the bait movement. If you follow our fishing reports I always say follow the bait and you will find the fish. The huge marlin loves the warmer water but will not starve themselves to death. We all have to eat and so do the marlin. Hence we have to follow the baits and the other fishing conditions that are tale-tale signs the fish will be biting in our area. If the conditions change so do we. Follow the fish to success.
The sailfish swims in temperatures that can range from 75 to 80 degrees water but with some exceptions. We see these fish in the summer when the water temp is above 80 degree. That is what makes the winter fishing in Nuevo Vallarta so nice is the perfect water temperatures. With all kinds of bait like mullet, sardine and goggle-eye,bonitas, chorras there’s nothing holding us back here in Puerto Vallarta fishing. If you want excitement try fishing with 5 to 10 lbs baits for our blue and black marlin.  nuevo vallarta mahi mahi fishing

The mahi-mahi aka dorados loves the water temp from 68 degrees to 82 deg. We have those water temps most of year-round. The best water temperatures are in the winter months here in Puerto Vallarta bay fishing. To catch these fish be sure and know where the water temp breaks are in the bay. We use Terrifin and this will put us in the fish zone most days. The mahi-mahi fantastic fighters are just like us and love the warm water and will be here most of the year especially in the winter. Come down and give mahi-mahi fishing a chance inshore or offshore. The best bet is a charter of 8 hours for some thrilling action and an incredible table fare.

The bay fishing holds very steadily for the winter months. We have the Spanish mackerel,skip-jack tuna, yellowtail, and snapper that keeps our clients happy even on short trips of for to six hours.
