So, what species have been biting, and what can anglers anticipate on a February fishing trip to Nuevo Vallarta? This February, we’re experiencing unusually warm water temperatures, hovering around 74 degrees. This has contributed to the continued presence of mahi-mahi and sailfish, providing exciting opportunities for our eight-hour offshore charters. While the slight
Bay fishing has also been remarkably productive. On many days, the California Bonita and Spanish mackerel have been biting non-stop, offering fast-paced action and plenty of excitement. These favorable conditions are projected to extend into March, when we might experience slightly more wind. However, the wind typically doesn’t significantly impact bay fishing, making it a consistently good option. A four to six-hour bay fishing trip is an excellent choice for families looking for a fun and memorable outing. Information about pricing and available boats for bay fishing can be found on our website.
Offshore fishing is expected to remain productive throughout March. As the winds pick up a bit, we will adjust our fishing tactics accordingly, but the overall offshore experience will remain exceptional. Having plenty of live bait on hand is crucial, and using high-quality lures like Black Bart and Joel Schultz tuna lures has proven very effective for targeting marlin, sailfish, and mahi-mahi.
