Rolling cold fronts have been the trend over the past week on Ambergris Caye. Wind conditions are from the E/NE 15-25 consistently. High wind conditions require guides to resort to fishing protected areas to the west and north in the Bacalar Chico National Park and Marine Reserve. Likewise, Permit and Tarpon have been challenging to locate and catch rates remain below average for this time of the year. Small Tarpon and Snook can be found in and around mangrove growth but require greater accuracy to hook up.
Good numbers of Bonefish (136) were landed, averaging 2 to 3 lbs, with several ranging from 3 to 6 lbs.
Four landed.
None this week.
Snapper and Jack Crevalle landed West along the Mainland Coastline.
