Mako water temps

[OCcaptain]

What's the lowest temperature water that anyone here has actually caught a Mako? I have one in my log book that was caught in 62 degree water. I want to go this weekend but the water temps look a little too low.

I have caught one at 57 degrees. Just one... A true slob of 498 but again only one... 62 seems to be their bottom threshold in my experience 64-68 being ideal...

Check out the 64-68 degree water outside the Washington. Im sure thier are some Makos in it.

58-59 degrees, same as deep big fish 400+. 64-68 seems to be prime time and find the bait!

56 degrees. Fall mako off of Long Island. November 1, 2008

My coldest was 59.5 deg. South of Block Island in June....

[DEEP DEFIANCE]

59-65 degrees in the spring. fall is kind of A funny thing,as they can be caught in A much colder surface temp as in the spring as long as it is still warmer sub surface and throughout the water columm.

Off of OC, May 25, i forget the year, 57 degrees 268 pounds.

I have had one in my slick in 53 degree water, but it would not eat.

I dont think there are any makos left on the easy coast. Every year it gets harder and harder. I think they should shut it down for a couple years.
