African Pompano – A real bonus the past few weeks.

Rancho Leonero Resort, East Cape BCS, Mexico
A report right from the source:
The week of March 29-April 4, 2014

Water - 73-77 warmer than normal. Beautiful mornings with some afternoon winds for the last couple of days; very mixed this week.

Air - Pleasant with cool mornings and evenings, highs in the low 80s. Although cooler than last week, it's still very nice!

The Environment:

Water temperatures from73 to 77 degrees are somewhat warmer than usual. Air temperature highs were in the low-80s. Mild afternoon winds.

The Bottom Line:

About an 8 on a '1-10' scale!

Marlin – Stripers are aggressive for anglers targeting them. Multiple releases have been common; one Rancho Leonero guest released 6 striped marlin in two days.


Dorado – Bite very consistent, though not wide open. They’re right in front of the hotel … feisty scrappers, in the 10-pound range.


African Pompano – A real bonus the past few weeks. These are in the 15-pound range and pull like freight trains. Test your tackle, knots and willpower!


Pargo and More: Good to very good bottom fishing, with some quality pargo being taken right off our docks.
