This Guatemala fishing report is for the two weeks ending
July 30th 2007 and is prepared by The Great Sailfishing
Company operating out of the new Pez Vela
Marina.
When the weather cooperates, we are continuing to see
some excellent concentrations of billfish in the waters off
the Pez Vela marina. Most days have been warm and calm,
but we are in the official rainy season, and so it can also
sometimes be a little unpredictable.
We were pleased to welcome Sherri Larkin and her group
recently – and they encountered both sets of conditions.
The first day out fishing on the Joint Venture the seas were
a solid 3-4 feet and the going was rough at times. Despite this,
they persevered and were rewarded with 3 good size sailfish to
the boat.
Their second day out however was at the other extreme: calm
seas and balmy temperatures….and the bite was HOT. They
hooked into two Blue Marlin (one of which was specimen size
for Guatemala at 600lbs+) as well as bringing some dorado home
for the table. The Sailfish made an excellent showing for this
time of the year, with 30+ raises and 15 to the boat for the day.
So much for the low season !
Overall a great trip ……………"We had a great time, thank you
so much……….it was absolutely amazing and exceeded our
expectations………you guys did a fantastic job and your
staff…………….were fantastic."
The fish are still here, and are still biting aggressively –
it's not to late to come down and enjoy the "Low Season"
in Guatemala, home of the World's Best Sailfishing.
