Puerto Rico · La Parguera / southwest

Snook should be the day — the same trees on the dump, then the southwest drop if the method is Offshore.

Southwest mangrove cays and the drop to the Caribbean. Snook and tarpon in the trees, reef and blue water a short run south. NOAA 9759110 Magueyes Island is the clock. Not San Juan. DNER and any reserve markers are the law.

  • ⚠ Puerto Rico is DNER water, not FWC. Marine reserves (including Mosquito Bay) are not a freelance wade. Verify before you keep a fish.

Why — and who

  • — Tide is outgoing from NOAA.
  • — The gauge is +0.60 ft off the predicted table — read the water, not just the printout.
  • — Clear · 2%. Sky is workable.
  • — Wind 0 mph NE. Castable. Sight-fishing is on if the sun is out.
  • — Waxing gibbous moon — mid tide range. Marsh and passes usually want the extra current of a spring.
