This Guatemala fishing report is for the week ending

November 3rd 2007 and is prepared by

[b][url=http://www.GreatSailfishing.com] The Great Sailfishing Company[/url][/b]

operating out of the new Pez Vela

Marina.

The calm seas and clear skies belie the frenetic pace of

activity around the docks and yards of the Marina Pez Vela.

The bulk of the preparation for the peak of the season has been

completed – now we are just adding the finishing touches.

Polish on the gelcoat, a final sand of the hull …. a bit of spit

and a bit of polish. We are ready, and by all accounts the

billfish are ready as well.

The boats are still doing more prospecting than usual to find

good concentrations of fish, with raises ranging from low

single digits to 20+ within a day of each other. The consistency

continues to improve week by week however.

We were pleased to welcome Snr. Gelido and his group all the

way from Argentina this week. The reputation of the quality sailfishing

off the Pacific Coast of Guatemala has obviously now extended

about as far South as it can get !

There has been a strong current of deep blue water consistently at

40 miles from dock which has become the automatic lines in

point for the fleet – and to start fanning out from there. The Captains

have reported that the fish seem to be following the bluewater further

inshore, which we hope will lead to greater concentrations closer

in over the next few weeks………….but still…………..20+ raises

in November seems like a good start to the season, along with a

few marlin raised as well - maybe a good [b][url=http://www.GreatMarlinfishing.com] Marlin[/url][/b]

season to come as well !

We still have availability for some of the popular dates, so don't

wait, give us a call at 1-877-763-0851 or send us an email (below)

to check on dates – we would look forward to welcoming you to

some of the finest fishing anywhere.

Bio: tSaltwater fly-fishing at its best : Guatemala Fishing has earned a worldwide reputation as THE destination for your billfish fishing trip because anglers regularly have shots at 20+ Sailfish per day. For all of the bluewater anglers, there are opportunities for Blue marlin and Black marlin as well as Tuna and Dorado.

The coastline and ecosystem support vast quantities of bait year round and warm eddies hold large pods of sailfish between 2 and 50 miles from port. Guatemala holds many official (and unofficial !) records for Pacific Sailfish including most in a day on conventional (124) and on the fly (57)...as well as most in a season..................so there is clearly no shortage of action !

The Great Sailfishing Company has been providing economical all inclusive conventional fishing and flyfishing in Guatemala for many years. Whether you prefer the luxury and privacy of a Villa staffed with personal chef, maid and waitress, the larger resort atmosphere of the Villas Del Pacifico – or the smaller complex of Costa Verde, we will be happy to work with you to ensure that you enjoy the fishing trip of a lifetime.
