Dorado Limits

[bigfish420]

Does anyone know what the daily bag limits are on dorado in Mexican waters and in US??

[cappo]

its 2 dorado per day

The bag limits in mexico is a bit confusing. It's 10 fish per day, with a limit of two dorado per day. But these two dorado count as 5 towards your aggregated 10 fish limit.

So, if you keep one or two dorado you can only keep 5 YT/YFT/Alb/BFT.

I haven't had a trip into mexico that reached near the bag limits.

Bag and Possession Limits


In ocean waters and estuaries the limit is a total of ten fish per day, with no more than 5 catches of a single species, except of the species of marlin, sailfish, swordfish and shark of which only one specimen of either is allowed and which counts as five toward the overall 10 fish limit, or dorado, roosterfish, shad or tarpon, of which only two samples of this group are allowed, and which count as five toward the overall 10 fish limit.
Limit on inland bodies of water (rivers, lakes, dams, etc.) is five fish per day, whether of a single species or in combination.
Underwater fishing is limited to five fish per day, using rubber band or spring type harpoons, and only while skindiving.
There is no limit to the practice of "catch and release" as long as the fish that exceed the bag limit be returned to their environment in good survival condition.
Where sportfishing is conducted from boats out at sea for longer that three days, the bag limit will be the equivalent of three times the amounts mentioned above.

[*** Note: As explained by the Department of Fisheries office in San Diego, this means that if you catch 1 marlin (5 points) and 1 dorado (5 points), you have reached your limit for the day.
Other examples of full Mexican limits would be:

2 dorado;

1 dorado plus 5 miscellaneous species;

1 roosterfish plus 1 dorado.-- B.A.R.]
