Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in with your Puerto Vallarta fishing report. Out on the Bahia de Banderas, we’ve got classic summer conditions. Light morning breeze, building chop by midday, and generally stable weather with warm, humid air and only a slight chance of an afternoon squall. Skies are partly cloudy, and the heat is already pushing the bait out of the shallow surf and onto the inshore structure. Tides today are running a moderate morning incoming, peaking mid‑day, then easing into an afternoon drop. That rising water early is the sweet spot: it’s pushing bait tight to the rocks, river mouths, and beach points. First light to about two hours into the flood has been the money window. Sunrise is right around six‑thirty, with sunset close to eight‑thirty local time, so you’ve got a generous low‑light bracket on both ends. The pre‑dawn grey and the last hour of light are when the bigger predators have been sliding in shallow and getting brave. Inshore, the story lately has been solid numbers of **roosterfish**, **jack crevalle**, **sierra mackerel**, and some **snook** around the river plumes. Local captains have been reporting multiple roosters per morning when the bait stacks, with jacks mixed in and the odd big corvina or pargo when you’re tight to rock and reef. Roosters have been running mostly schoolies, with the occasional bruiser pushing past the 40‑pound mark. Jacks are all attitude, plenty in the 10–20 pound class. Offshore, boats running the edge of the bay and beyond have been seeing **dorado** starting to show on the temperature breaks and floating debris, with a few **sailfish** and **striped marlin** tagging the spread. Dorado counts have been one to four fish per boat on a decent day, with some peanut‑sized fish and enough keepers to keep things interesting. When you find clean blue water and bait, the sails haven’t been shy. Best lures right now: for inshore roosters and jacks, work **surface poppers** and **stickbaits** in sardine or mullet colors, and keep a **chrome or blue‑silver casting jig** ready when they pin bait on top. Snook and pargo are chewing **soft plastics** on jig heads in natural browns and greens and small **suspending hardbaits** around river mouths and mangrove edges. Live bait is still king—live sardina or mullet slow‑trolled or free‑lined will out‑fish hardware when the sun gets high. Offshore, pull a spread of **small skirted trolling lures** in green‑yellow and blue‑white, plus at least one natural rigged ballyhoo. Dorado have been smashing smaller offerings on the long rigger, while sailfish and marlin are favoring slightly larger, darker skirts with a good smoke trail. A couple of hot spots to put on your list: • **Corbetena “The Rock”** – Offshore seamount that’s been holding dorado and the odd billfish when the current is right. Work the up‑current side, watch for birds and bait showers, and don’t be afraid to drop a jig if you mark fish deep. • **El Morro and around the Marietas** – Great structure on the edge of the bay for roosters, jacks, and the occasional pelagic cruising through. Cast poppers tight to the rock and let them work over the drop‑off. Closer to town, the beaches near the river mouths—like where the Rio Cuale and Ameca spill out—have been producing snook and smaller roosters at first light on topwaters and live bait. Walk‑and‑cast with light gear and keep your eyes on nervous bait and bird activity. That’s the bite for today from Puerto Vallarta.
