Why May is the Best Time for Fishing in Puerto Vallarta
May marks the beginning of **peak fishing season** in Puerto Vallarta, with an abundance of game fish migrating through the region. Here’s what you can expect:
- **Blue Marlin & Black Marlin**: These prized billfish are becoming more active as water temperatures rise. Our crews use advanced **fish-finding technology** to locate them near underwater structures and bait schools.
- **Yellowfin Tuna**: Schools of tuna are growing in size, offering thrilling battles for anglers. We often find them near **El Banco** and **Corbeteña**, two of the most productive fishing grounds.
- **Dorado (Mahi-Mahi)**: Known for their dazzling colors and acrobatic fights, dorado are plentiful this time of year, especially around floating debris and weed lines.
- **Wahoo & Roosterfish**: If you love speed and aggression, wahoo are a must-catch, while inshore anglers can test their skills against powerful roosterfish near rocky shorelines.
