Here in the bay of Punta Mita when the water temperature gets to 78 degrees the fish move into the bay following all kinds of bait. Just to mention a few are mullet, goggle-eye, ballyhoo, shad, and some larger bait used for offshore fishing. To get the most out of your Nuevo Vallarta fishing trip be sure and have the proper fishing rigs. We like to set up for several kinds of fishing action before heading out to the close fishing spots. There will be numerous chances at casting as during this time of the season as we are more likely to see schooling fish than not. This type of fishing is enjoyable for all fishing anglers who can cast. There will be many chances of live baiting here in the bay and offshore. The fun thing I like about live baiting is never knowing what you are going to catch. Once we set out live bait you just don’t know what might strike the line. There will be sailfish, yellowtail, tuna, mahi-mahi, roosterfish, and many more pelagic fish during the month of May. We love to rig up some of the light tackle for bay fishing and keep a couple of larger rods and reels ready for when the big game fish show up. Trolling and jigging are fun ways to fish here in the bay. ThePunta Mita area is fantastic for bottom fishing as well. There is a huge river that feeds into our bay with fresh water. This has the effect to attract all kinds of bottom fish. We don’t do a lot of bottom fishing as most fishermen want to troll for a big game. We are more than happy to do both if anglers will let us know in advance.
