Fish Where the Fish Are !

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

And of course…that means fishing in Guatemala !

The blue water has been giving us a runaround for the past week, with strong currents ahead of the new moon shifting the breaks by as much as 30 miles overnight. The Guatemala Fishing fleet has been chasing it however, and we have been finding good numbers of sailfish as well as marlin ranging from 13 – 45 miles out. The numbers have not been huge by Guatemala standards, but at least they are consistent, with pretty much all of our charters raising double digits most days.

Guatemala – Land of Eternal Spring

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

As well as great sailfishing in Guatemala, the country is also known for its clement climate – especially in the highlands. Hence the tag used for 35 years in the country of “Guatemala – Land of Eternal Spring”.

Sometimes however, it doesn’t quite work that way; the fishing in Guatemala has been as changeable as the weather over the Xmas period, although it seems to have settled down now. The seas are calm and the weather is warm – and the fishing is catching up…….boats raising as many as 35 sailfish  per day this week, and stil plenty of Blue Marlin around.]

Snow – what snow ??

Friday, December 24th, 2010

The fishing in Guatemala has settled down into a more noramal and seasonal pattern. The cold that has been ravaging through North America has not made it down as far south as Guatemala – and the cold front that had been affecting the sailfishing in Guatemala over the past week or so has moved away.

The vast concentrations of baitfish that had been around for the last couple of weeks also seem to have dissapated somewhat – making it a little harder for the sailfish and marlin to get a full meal – and so more receptive to our own baits.

we have seen some great fishing recently – see our full report here : http://www.greatsailfishing.com/Guatemala_Fishing_Report.php

New shared trip for Guatemala Fishing

Friday, November 5th, 2010

After running several very successful shared fishing trips to Guatemala, we have now scheduled what is likely to be the final one of this coming season. The trip is planned for the weekend of March 26/27th 2011 and will include opportunites for both fly-fishing for sailfish and conventionak fishing for both sailfish and Blue Marlin. We will be fishing leading up to the new moon, which is often the peak time for raising sailfish as they tend to feed less at night and are more aggressive on the teasers during the day enabling the crew to raise fish within castin range for fly-fishing. Our past shared fishing trips to Guatemala have been well received and anglers have enjoyed some great fishing. The weather is typically warm with calm seas n March and April so a great opportunity to come down and experience the sailfishing capital !
