In Punta Mita , Mexico when April comes around most people are thinking about Easter and why not. Punta Mita has so much going on this time of the year. So many changes and celebrations around the bay area.
Take a look at our TRIPADVISOR REVIEWS FOR WHAT PEOPLE SAID LAST MONTH ABOUT US.
In April the waters begin to warm and the fish start moving into the Punta Mita bay as well as offshore. We will see several changes with our Puerto Vallarta fishing grounds. Not only will the water temperature be moving up, but will start seeing more schools of fish. This means one important factor for the Nuevo Vallarta angler. Great fishing.
This happens almost in spring. Just about the time Easter happens.
What can I expect to catch? With the warming of the water the sailfish, marlin, and Mahi – Mahi will be more active. There will be plenty of fish to go around. Some will be offshore and some pelagic species will be inshore. For prices for the inshore and offshore click here. We get all kinds of questions during the month of April. The most common question is where we will fish. I have a good idea with my 36 years of experience, but the darn fish keep moving around. We use many factors in picking the fishing grounds here and around Nuevo Vallarta fishing.
There are many factors that make the fish move from one place to another. The main reason fish move around is to find the bait and eat. If you can consistently find the bait this is where the fish will be feeding. This will keep you on top of the fish and all the rods screaming on the boat. The other reason these fish move around is the water temperature. Too hot or too cold the fish will be o the move like a pack of nomads. We check water temperatures before we even leave the dock.
The other factor that most people don’t think about is water clarity. I pay a yearly online fee for all our boats to have this kind of info on the boats. It’s called Terrifin app. and works beautifully. This is a fee we pay each month for this information that comes from the satellites.
This information helps us find where the fish were biting, the day prior that you fish with this, the water clarity, the water temperatures, and of course the bait moving. These are the most important factors in catching fish. We always put our clients on the fish here in beautiful Punta Mita Mexico.
For a great charter in April give us a call (800 4306048) or send us an email (puntamitafishingcharters@outlook.com) and let us know how many people are in your group when you will be coming down so we can set up a special Fishing charter for you and your family.
Looking forward to seeing everybody out there on the water.
Wanna wish everybody a happy Easter
