On This Water

Puerto Rico · La Parguera / southwest

Snook should be the day — flood the mangrove cays — snook first, a tarpon in the darker mouths.

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.

  • This brief is for 2026-11-07. No wind forecast that far out — score is tide, moon, and season. Not a copper day.
  • Puerto Rico is DNER water, not FWC. Marine reserves (including Mosquito Bay) are not a freelance wade. Verify before you keep a fish.
