Puerto Vallarta is made up of several incredible fishing spots and several different bodies of water. There are seven rivers that flow into our beautiful bay. River, bay fishing, and one of the best oceans to fish in means only one thing. Fantastic fishing all year round. If you are planning a summer vacation to Puerto Vallarta make sure you take a day to enjoy some of the best fishing in Mexico.
Bay fishing Puerto Vallarta summertime
The bay fishing in Puerto Vallarta offers several different fishing opportunities. There are live baiting, jigging, trolling, bottom fishing, and great places to fish from the beach. This last month the south side of the bay has been in competition with the north side of the bay. Both of these fishing spots have been producing good fish. The fishing numbers have been about the same. The best is still yet to be determined.
The best bay fishing has been for yellowtail,bonitos, snapper, roosterfish. The bay has just been full of them. The surprising thing about fishing here in the bay is the sailfish and some marlin have moved into the bay. Seems like every day one of the boats is reporting a sailfish or marlin. The hot bay action is usually done in 4 to 6 hrs. There are ample opportunities for a beach stop or snorkeling on these bay trips.
