The objective of this study was to carry out an analysis of the relationship between the Catch Per Unit Effort and the average size of the organisms and El Ninovents from 1954 to 2001. Studies were done on the capture and effort rates from international sportfishing tournaments taking place in the six ports in the Mexican Pacific Ocean during different periods between 1981 and 2001. Results suggest a direct relationship between the abundance and the El Ninovent, mainly from tournaments after 1976. More so, there is a positive, though less intense correlation between the El Ninondex and the weights and lengths of caught organisms in sport fishing.
