Why May is the Peak Fishing Month in Punta Mita
May marks the arrival of the peak fishing season in Punta Mita. As the waters warm up, a diverse array of species migrates through the region, creating a lively and promising environment for anglers. The combination of ocean currents, rising temperatures, and baitfish activity makes May an ideal month to target big game fish.
Target Species in May
- Blue and Black Marlin: These majestic billfish are at their most active, making May a prime month for marlin fishing. They tend to congregate around underwater structures and bait balls, which our expert crews locate using advanced fish-finding technology. The thrill of hooking a marlin is unmatched, and May offers some of the best chances to land a trophy.
- Yellowfin Tuna: Schools of yellowfin tuna are abundant, often found near the legendary El Banco and Corbeteña fishing grounds. These powerful fighters provide exhilarating battles and are great for both sport and table.
- Dorado (Mahi-Mahi): Known for their vibrant colors and acrobatic leaps, dorado are plentiful around floating debris, weed lines, and current breaks. They are not only fun to catch but also make for excellent eating.
- Wahoo & Roosterfish: For those seeking speed and aggression, wahoo are a top target during May, often found lurking near deep drop-offs and underwater structures. Inshore, anglers can test their skills against powerful roosterfish along rocky shorelines, especially during early mornings and late afternoons.
