We all know that May is for mothers day and excellent fishing and Nuevo Vallarta Mexico. If you’re visiting down here to Nuevo Vallarta in the month of May, you’re gonna be able to take out several different fishing trips. In may we have the changing of the waters where cooler water is meeting warmer water. This is great in several ways as the warmer waters bring in the larger fish and all kinds of baitfish. The mullet, shad, sardines, bonitos, and goggle-eye are just a few. read more

The April Nuevo Vallarta fishing report looks very similar to the March fishing report. There will be some major changes that will see in the month of April. There will be warmer water, more fish, thermoclines, and a lot more bait in the water. When you start seeing more bait in the water, such as sardines, mullet, macarella, goggle-eye, and bonita this only means one thing. The spring fishing is going to be epic. The big marlin, tuna, sailfish, and mahi-mahi will start moving into the Nayarit area. 
The warmth of the water brings in all these different kinds of bait that I listed above. And then if you’ve been reading my reports over the years you know when you find the bait you will find the fish. Being on the right fishing spot at the right time is the secret to successful fishing trips. 
The perfect equation to any fishing trip is fantastic weather which we have plenty of, beautiful blue water, which happens in April, excellent water temperatures, and an abundance of bait. The fish will always be where the bait is, so that’s one of the signs that we look for on a daily basis.

One of the big questions we always get enabled is where are we gonna fish and what are we gonna catch.
Well, the truth of the matter is the fish move around a lot and it’s hard to predict what we’re gonna catch and where we’re gonna catch the fish. We did this a long time here in Nuevo Vallarta and we have all the moon phases, the tide charts, surface temperatures, and water clarity to help us find fish. with all the information we have these fish still can’t read and sometimes can fool even the best fisherman in the world.
To see what we’ve been doing on a daily basis and some of our catches take a look at Facebook we try to keep the Facebook page up-to-date with all the different fish that we’re catching and so you’ll have a good idea before coming down what the action is like here in the beautiful Puerto Vallarta Mexico.
