The April Nuevo Vallarta fishing report looks very similar to the March fishing report. There will be some major changes that will see in the month of April. There will be warmer water, more fish, thermoclines, and a lot more bait in the water. When you start seeing more bait in the water, such as sardines, mullet, macarella, goggle-eye, and bonita this only means one thing. The spring fishing is going to be epic. The big marlin, tuna, sailfish, and mahi-mahi will start moving into the Nayarit area.
The warmth of the water brings in all these different kinds of bait that I listed above. And then if you’ve been reading my reports over the years you know when you find the bait you will find the fish. Being on the right fishing spot at the right time is the secret to successful fishing trips.
The perfect equation to any fishing trip is fantastic weather which we have plenty of, beautiful blue water, which happens in April, excellent water temperatures, and an abundance of bait. The fish will always be where the bait is, so that’s one of the signs that we look for on a daily basis.
If you’re looking for the perfect recipe for a fishing trip give us a call toll-free before coming down. After so many years of taking thousands of people out each year, we have many options. Take a look here to see some of the options.
One of the big questions we always get enabled is where are we gonna fish and what are we gonna catch.
Well, the truth of the matter is the fish move around a lot and it’s hard to predict what we’re gonna catch and where we’re gonna catch the fish. We did this a long time here in Nuevo Vallarta and we have all the moon phases, the tide charts, surface temperatures, and water clarity to help us find fish. with all the information we have these fish still can’t read and sometimes can fool even the best fisherman in the world.
To see what we’ve been doing on a daily basis and some of our catches take a look at Facebook we try to keep the Facebook page up-to-date with all the different fish that we’re catching and so you’ll have a good idea before coming down what the action is like here in the beautiful Puerto Vallarta Mexico.
Not sure which one of our boats to book just give us a call toll-free 800 430 6048 and we’ll be more than happy to explain all the different options. We have an English-speaking person that answers our calls and so no question is too silly to ask We actually encourage our clients to call us before coming down and to answer any questions they might have about fishing or other related Areas here in the beautiful Nuevo Vallarta.

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report April
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.
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.
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

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report February 2022

We can obviously see why anglers want to be in Nuevo Vallarta for the month of February.
Nuevo Vallarta fishing report January
Happy new year from Nuevo Vallarta, where the fish are always hungry. This last December saw some fantastic action. We had multiple hookups with some sailfish, marlin, mahi-mahi and, much other pelagic fish. This was done mostly to the warmer waters hanging around longer than normal. The water temperatures are still in the high 70’s. Good news for all anglers venturing out for a fun day here in Mexico. Nuevo Vallarta has been on fire to put it lightly. This coming January we are expecting much of the same weather 70 degrees to so and some fabulous fishing inshore and offshore. Seem like the lady anglers we have been taking out are kicking butt and taking names. Take a look at some of these January catches.
What can folks expect to catch this January? With the water temperature abnormally high that we are having and the overabundance of bait inside the bay and offshore we are predicting the same as December. Normally when the water changes we have species of fish that leave and look for warmer water or different baits but this year they have stayed. Seems like when one species of fish leave another comes along and keeps the fishing interesting here in Nuevo Vallarta Mexico.
These warm water temps have been producing sailfish out by the islands and offshore in good numbers. Several of our best Capts. Have been catching double and even triple hookups offshore. The marlin bite has been steady. The two best fishing spots are el Banco and Corebetena. The same as the years past. There are the few marlins caught in the bay and along the north shore from time to time. The Mahi-mahi action has been off the charts. We had one-day last week where the clients had 20 dorados in one day and some marlin action. Many of the trips this last month of the year were offshore as the bite was so good. I’m sure we will be having much of the same this coming month. Check out some of the best rates in Nuevo Vallarta fishing.
The inshore action lit up the bay with the arrival of the humpback whales and all kinds of good-eating fish. What’s not to like about nonstop rod-bending action all day along with catching some fantastic eating fish to take back to the condo. The Spanish mackerel, California Bonita, snapper, and some Mahi-mahi have kept our fishing anglers busy this January. With the arrival of the new year 2022, we have some new trips to talk about.
We have been getting many requests for fishing and whale watching we decided to offer a fishing/whale watching combo trip. This is a 6 hr trip with grantee success on whales and fish. The humpback whales are here every year from Alaska here from December to March and will have this special trip to offer everyone coming down to beautiful Nuevo Vallarta where the friendliest people in the world live. Please contact us for more info or to make a reservation
Happy New Year and Merry Fishmas from Puerto Vallarta

Nuevo Vallarta fishing report for December
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. Try your hand at fishing for marlin, sailfish, wahoo, tuna, and mahi-mahi in Nuevo Vallarta. With the warm waters coming and going it keeps us guessing as to what the bite will be tomorrow. The one constant thing we can count on is good fishing in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico.
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.
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.
