Guatemala - Presidential Challenge, fishing report w/ending

[marlinkjs]

This Guatemala fishing report is for the week ending
November 18th 2007 and is prepared by
The Great Sailfishing Company
operating out of the new Pez Vela
Marina.

I’m the first to recognize that “Local Knowledge” is one of
the most important factors in a successful fishing trip. The
complex interaction of tides/moons/currents/temperatures/
depth etc etc. become almost overwhelming, but years of
experience in a particular locale decipher them into almost
a “3rd sense” for where the fish are.
This seems to have been taken to a whole new level in
Guatemala however, where the local fishermen now seem
to be able to PREDICT the fishing months ahead.

The “Presidential Challenge” took place this past weekend,
and after weeks of relatively inconsistent fishing at seemingly
random spots, all of a sudden the fish have become more
concentrated starting at only 15-18 miles from the dock.
Most boats were raising 15-25 sails per day and at the end of
the tournament 30+ sails caught over the 3 days was sufficient
to be in the hunt. There also several “Grand Slams” on Blue
Marlin and Sailfish brought to the boat over the course of
the tournament. Seas were very calm with hardly and surface
movement at all until about midday.

The “Joint Venture” also fished Sunday and found not only good
numbers of sails at the same mark (15 caught), but also large
schools of voracious Albacore that were readily attacking
small skirts trolled quickly on light tackle – providing great
sport as well as good steaks for the table.

bite, good numbers of Sailfish raise and caught – and even
food for the table……….things are definitely looking up in the
rich fishing grounds off the Pacific Coast of Guatemala.

The boats are ready, the crews are primed – come down and enjoy
the buildup to what we hope is going to be a great season
