Nuevo Vallarta fishing report for June 2024
- Welcome to the June fishing report for Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. This is the game-changer of all fishing reports, and you’ll soon see why. As the rainy season begins on June 15th and lasts until October 15th, some might think the rain slows our fishing. Not at all! The evening rains actually have a profound effect on the fishing, bringing pelagic fish and bait into our bay. If you find bait movement, you will find fish. Heavy rains can cause our rivers to flood, emptying debris into the bay. Sailfish, mahi-mahi, and even marlin love to hunt along these “trash lines,” where dark blue water meets off-colored water. Slow-trolling live bait is one of the best methods in these conditions. When you see ten boats working a fishing line as described above, you know the fishing is hot in this area.

With heavy rains, it’s common to see large trees, small islands, and all sorts of debris floating in the bay. These create excellent fishing spots for dorados, sailfish, tuna, and various small game fish right in the bay.
