#327154 Sailfish and Manta outing

Posted by elbuzo on 04 March 2013 - 06:13 AM

Thanks for your report David

 

I was out there last wednesday also and was shocked of the great amount of mantas feeding on the surface  . I never though that was possible to see that many in the Caribbean , really an amazing spectacle . Our boat didn't have bridge so we don't have that perspective but they were everywhere. Also millions of sardines and lots of dolphins.

 

I regret not having spent more time with the mantas, since was our first day out and we spent the whole day looking for the sailfishes  without luck ( we only saw one pass by ). Thursday we have some moving baitballs and spend some time with the sailfish but water was not really clear ; after that a north front came and only today is the sea conditions starting to get better .

 

Here is a pic of 2 mantas feeding from that day 

 

Regards
