We've been having excellent fishing offshore so far this season. Our peak sailfish season here is December through April, and so far, we've had excellent numbers of sailfish - rivaling the past 2 record setting years.
It kicked off early this December with a quick run of sailfish. We had a couple days giving us 30-50 bites the first week of December, with 29 releases. After that, the numbers tapered off a little, but it was still consistently good overall. The numbers picked-up again in January as more sailfish migrated in range.
We had several days though January with 30 to 50 bites for sails giving us 20+ releases many days throughout the month, with some dorado (mahi-mahi) still common and an occasional shot at a blue marlin.
The 1st leg of the Los Suenos Triple Crown broke records again after setting records last year as well. Thirty-nine boats released 2379 billfish in 3 days, crushing the previous record of 1412, set in Jan 2014!
