Punta Mita fishing report May 2019. The fishing is hot as a firecracker. Warm waters are moving in and all kinds of baits are following them. This large amount of bait brings in all kinds of fish the good-eating red snapper the large California Bonita and the Spanish mackerel still hanging around right here in Punta Mita . When you see these pelagic fish moving you will see the large game Fish moving in right behind them. This is what’s happening in the month of May. The water is warmed up 77 degrees hanging around 78 degrees and we start seeing sailish, Marlin and mahi -mahi. These fish come in to feed on these large bait balls.
What’s the best way to catch a fish right here in Punta Mita. All the really good captains and good boats use a setup with high-speed lures short with teasers, and some long baits. We also stay on the lookout with pitch baits. These pitch rates are usually goggle eyes and once pitched into a school of sailfish or marlin the action begins. We’ve been also using the same pitch baits for some large schools of striped Marlin. There are few other pictures here in Punta Mita fishing with the results. This morning we had a double Marlin hook up and the other day we had another triple hook up on striped Marlin. Fabulous fishing in Nuevo Vallarta fishing.

The El Morro it still seems some good action with the sailfish and a few Marlin. The Rock is still hot and tuna’s are still hanging around. There are black and blue marlin big ones to be taken on a lot of chorras 5 to 10 lb baits. When we live, bait with 300 lbs. Fluorocarbon leaders and fishing with a 10 lb baits you never know what’s going to get that, but you do know it’ll be something really big.
