Even Catfish are finicky |
Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

Last week's action continued with a good showing of SAILFISH along with the arrival of a good mix of White Marlin. Most boats are averaging 5- 6 Sailfish strikes per day with double digit numbers becoming more common. Captain Carlos Austin had several 7 Billfish days last week with the catch being mostly Sailfish. Captain Raul on the Cambritt also scored well on SAILFISH but added in Several White Marlin and Dorado as well. The Dorado are present but there has not been big numbers as there have been in the past at this time of year. Blackfin Tuna are mixed in with large schools of Bonitos and the inshore action is still good with Barracuda and some wahoo..
Cancun Climate: Breezy with high in the 80's
Sea Conditions: Calm to Moderate
Best fishing area: South of Isla Mujeres 10 - 15 miles
Sincerely,
Stan & Susan
