Staying in Zihuatanejo for the first time in 10 years at La Casa Que Ve Al Mar, very nice and different from Ixtapa high rises. First morning went on a crazy hike on the road from La Ropa towards the airport, continued on to Coacoyul. It was a good climb, phone said 46 floors but would not walk to Coacoyul as there is too much traffic. Took the wife back there for dinner and we found a good restaurant that served chicken tinga it was very good.

Second morning was family fishing day. Got to the pier at 7:00 grabbed some food and fished until 10:00 when Isla Ixtapa opened. Caught 8 bonitas, 1 sierra and 1 cocinar fish. We had 2 bonitos grilled, the cocinar fish fried whole and the sierra for ceviche, what an excellent lunch. Later the wives will stay and we will go for dorados and tuna. I have been fishing with Ramon Olea, always a good day on the water with Ramon.

Only meal we had at a familiar place was dinner Saturday at La Porteña. Excelente place for a family meal and very reasonable. I always like to take Ramon’s family there. 9 of us, 3 large pizzas, 5 pastas and 10 drinks(fishing next morning) and the total was almost exactly $2,000 mxn. The last 3 times they have put us in the side room with ac, not really needed now but last October it was a blessing. Weather right now is perfect, not too crowded and everything seems to be opened.

Sailfish and a few sprinkled Dorados are still doing well at 22-24 miles.

Glad to see you got some nice fishing in with Ramón. Had some fresh dorado the other day, and I've seen a few at the market, so they're still around. Same with the tuna, but I suspect they're way out there if you want to take the ride.

Thanks for the report! ¡Saludos!
