FISHING: Great
We had a few "first" here at Buena Vista Sportfishing Lodge. Charley Ruetsch and his 9 year old daughter along with Gerson Pineda and Adam August had a great day on the Furious With Capt Maciel and mate Chente. Together the crew raised 16 sailfish, getting 14 bites and releasing 11 including an estimated 100lber for Charlies first pacific sailfish. The group also caught a dorado for dinner.
The weather and the seas are perfect. The entire USA is suffering from a huge cold spell. Come on down to the land of eternal spring. Sun, Sailfish and calm seas are waiting for you.

The bill fishing has turned on! Most of the fleet making the 10 - 30 mile run to blue water are seeing 20- 40 sails a day. Reports of occasional Blue Marlin are also making it back to the port. Looks like the season is starting off well. Escape the cold and enjoy some time in Guatemala at Buena Vista Sportfishing!

Capt Marciel had the boys from Outdoor Quest TV show out today and they had a great day. The sailfish bite was strong raising 16 sails to the Squidnation Teasers getting 10 bites and releasing 8 sailfish. They also raised 2 Blue Marlin getting bit once and releasing a 250-300lb Blue Marlin. Just for good measures they added a few nice dorados for the dinner table. The fishing is hot in Guatemala. We still have some days left for hot bite season between Jan and April. Check us out

Guatemala Fishing Report – Greatsailfishing ! December 7th 2009
La Quema del Diablo
This is a time of year that hopefully everyone is in good spirits as we approach the festive season. There are few peoples that enjoy a good celebration than the indigenous Guatemaltecos – and why stop at one ?? La Quema del Diablo (The burning of the devil) is a day that dates back as far as the 18th century, and is a combination of the pragmatic (take out household detritus and burn it) and culture whereby the act of burning represents the purging of evil. It is centered in Antigua in front of the Convent of Conception as locals erect an effigy of Lucifer and set it ablaze…………accompanied by fireworks that start around 6pm and continue pretty much uninterrupted all night as the crowds move from the North of the city to the “Old Capital” just outside Antigua proper.
It is not a coincidence that the Fiesta immediately precedes the Fiesta de La Virgen de Inmaculada Concepción Fas it also represents the struggle of the Virgin of the Immaculate Conception with the devil throughout her life. The Virgin is a very special saint for Guatemala - she was declared patron Saint of Guatemala City as early as 1738, and patron Saint of the Americas by Charles III in 1756. From the start of December until Semana Santa (Holy Week), there is no shortage of festivities to observe if you care to take a break from fishing for a day.
The Collard group arrived from the snow of Rhode Island a little apprehensive as they were to start fishing immediately after the full moon. Many anglers (and Captains) hold the opinion that during the full moon phase, the predatory fish are able to pursue their quarry during the night and hence are less aggressive for an easy meal during the day. Certainly the day did start out a little slow – and the fish that rose to the teasers were lazy and picky. You could feel the billfish hitting the bait with their bill as to play with it rather than to consume it. Timing was everything.
It took considerable skill and feel to determine when the sailfish had tired of playing and was ready to eat ……..and so to set the hook. On the positive side, this play provided plenty of practice (they raised 27 sailfish that day) without necessarily enduring the fight on every occasion.
See the SST report here
There has been a steady improvement in the marlin bite over the course of the last week, with fish raised most days. Even better, the blue water – while moving quickly and changing sometimes dramatically from day to day has remained mostly close in – lines in at about 15 miles and most action occurring at less than 20 miles from the dock. Just enough time to finish the coffee before the action starts !
The snow has started to fall and stay on the ground in the Northern US States - so now is a great time to book in for a fishing trip to the calm waters and sunshine of Guatemala while we still have dates available ! Get our FREE Angling Guide to Guatemala

Susy set her own personal record of 15 released sails. The bite is on!

The bite is on! As the rainy season ends a few boats in the San Jose fleet have ventured out 10-20 miles to find sails. Succesfully! Reports of 40+ fish released are making it back to the docks. Let's hope this is a sign of things to come.

SAY IT IS SO! Is it the beginning of a great season? We would like to think so. A reliable source from the dock at San Jose has informed us that a local boat ventured out to test the waters one day this past week. In doing so they found large schools of sails and ended up the day leaving them biting at a count 38 released out of 50+ raised.
We have dates open and guest stateside captains ready to help you plan a trip. Email us at info@buenavistasportfishing.com If you know Captain Joe Riley of the Muff Diver he may be reached at Joe@buenavistasportfishing.com Joe has some spots left in his late February package.
If you’re interested in January early February and know Captain Bill Pino of Squidnation drop him a note at Bill@buenavistasportfishing.com All of us can hook you up!

The bite is picking up! Sails are starting to school up and the tuna are putting in a good showing. Mix in an occasional Blue Marlin and you've got a respectable off season bite. The Furious went on a voyage and rasied a couple fish on a half day trip. Come join us this upcoming season. We still have open prime time dates available.
