Rancho Leonero Resort, East Cape BCS, Mexico
A report right from the source:
The week of May 11-18
Water - Water temps have stabilized with inshore at 72 degrees; outside 80 degrees, flat and calm.
Air - Cool mornings, nice weather … highs in the low 90s. Last couple of days were beautiful and clear.
The Environment:
As we say in Mexico, “Perfecto!”
The Bottom Line:
A solid Leonero 8 on a 1 to 10 scale.
Marlin – They are jumping into the boats! Very, very good billfishing. All boats targeting marlin are releasing at least one, most multiples. The fish are an easy 15 to 20 minutes from the "Ranch," directly in front of La Ribera.
Dorado – Good fishing early in the week with all anglers limiting although the bite has slowed some in the past few days.
Roosterfish and more – Roosters have been on and off this week. The best gallo bite has been south, around Los Frailes. Fish in the 50-pound range are being released daily.
Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch …
The first yellowfin tuna showed this week. On Friday, the JenWren ran into a school of tuna off Los Frailes. The boat limited with the largest fish a bruiser weighing 63-pounds.
