Hurricane Bud Puerto Vallarta

Good morning!
Its been a while since our last post, we have been through some changes here and there, so I apologize to our readers.
Let´s go straight to the point: Hurricane Bud.
It is amazing how the media blow the things up.  here is an example:

 (CNN America´s website header):

"Hurricane Bud to slam Mexico's southwestern coast"


Come on...  why not like this:  "Hurricane bud is weakening as it gets closer to Mexico´s southwestern coast"

Here is my latest picture (today 8:00am)
Hurricane Bud

That´s how Marina Vallarta looks this morning.
Puerto Vallarta authorities closed schools for the day and we are especting rain during the afternoon and night.
Now.. in other subject...
Fishing is getting better and better!

Hola to all my fishing buddys


Well I am back,I just had to take a long vaction but there is nothing better than home.The fishing continues to be one of the best in the last couple of years now that our tourist season is in full swing our boats are going out almost every day of the week and tuna is everywere this year,this past week I whent out with capitan victor on an 8 hour charter,about 22 miles out from the marina outside the northside of the bay to an area called (el faro) we were useing big eye live bait and laned some bonitas to put in out tuna tubes for extra bait,although the tunas are small they shure put up a geat fight,on the average it took me about 20 minutes to land each tuna useing 20 lb test line,the tunas were about 15 to 50lbs on average.thanks to victor and his deckhand for a memorable fishing trip.until next time.

Puerto Vallarta fishing report

Hola to all my fishing buddies!
this fishing season is off to a great start and the first week of October has been one of the best weeks in months! We are landing mahi-mahi from 15lb to 40lb, sailfish and marlin.


This week Michael Mark and friend went out for 3 days, first day 4hr (that will keep you in the bay) and Michael landed 5 mahi-mahi, then next day 8hr and amber jack and mahi- mahi, and 3rd day 8hr they landed a 90lb sailfish, mahi-mahi and some red snapper between 10lb to 15lb (bottom fishing)
so they had a great fishing weekend!
As you see, mahi-mahi can be landed inside the bay and outside the bay for the moment.
Untill next time!
