Tuna and wahoo build up as weather holds fine
Good weather continues, although it is windy some days, but this is beneficial to the fishing and good catches continue. But with the holiday season of August and early September over there is a lull in tourist activity and without clients most charter boats do not go out.

Boats continue finding tuna and marlin.

But one result is often a reduction in billfish activity, however the few boats that are going out are still reporting sail and marlin […]
Marlin still running on the Watamu Banks
Better weather has persisted this last week with strong winds some days and the occasional rain squall, but fishing conditions remain good and the boats that are going out are finding tuna and dorado as well as sailfish and marlin.

Calm weather persists but season almost at the end.
Easter has come and gone, and the calm weather continues but few trips were made recently and it looks as if the fishing season is at an end. There is no official season for fishing, but the end of April is taken as the date for statistical purposes, and usually the weather deteriorates into very […]
