MEXICO is well known for it’s Marlin fishing for Blue , Black and Striped Marlin. The Striped Marlin would be the most sought after by fly rodders. The average size is from 60 to 120 lbs. which make it a great fly rod fish. Blue and Black Marlin fishing is good but it is mostly the non- fly guys that pursue them. Striped Marlin are caught during the winter months when fish are most abundant , but spring and fall can be good. I’ve had days where I’ve seen a couple of dozen Marlin in a days fishing. Blue Marlin are found during the summer months into the fall.
