March 29th Fish Report

Reel Rum and El Nuevo both had anglers comming off of cruise ships today. We enjoy accomodating cruise ship passengers and think it is great that they want to spend the short time that they are in Cabo on one of our boats!! Thanks guys!

Reel Rum was back just right after noon time. Omar and Jesus had taken Mr. Todd Norwood and his son out for a half-day trip and caught more Sierra and Yellowtain than they could count!! They were also able to hook into the infamous squid!

Alex took Tim Davis and his group of friends out on El Nuevo for a half-day. They were able to fight a Stripe Marlin up to the boat in the 5 hours they were out. They caught and released a 101" Stripe Marlin and we set for the day. The guys may have had a better time than the girls as they were busy feeling the effects of being on the open water!

Rum Runnin was the third boat back today. Jason Davidson and his gang from the DFW Metroplex headed out with Javier and Manuel. The boys got hooked into a mess of Yellowfin Tuna on their full day trip. Although they wanted to land a Marlin there wasn't one to be landed. They spotted several but could not get them to bite. It was nice meeting you guys.

Tantrum had a long day on the water with Rene and Americo. The boys tried their hardest to land fish and were in the right spots all day. They were able to grab 1 Tuna on their day out with the boys.

Tight Lines,

Luis

March 28th Fish Report

A Happy Birthday goes out to Donny McWhiter from California. On his 19th Birthday he headed out on Tantrum with Americo and Ramon. He hooked into a nice 102" Stripe Marlin. The fight took well over 45 minutes he said and that he was "already feeling sore". Being an athlete and about to take his football carrer to the NCAA level you think a fish wouldn't be able to slow this kid down!! I wonder how his arms are feeling today. Best of Luck next year Donny.

Our group from Fort Worth, TX headed out on RedBeam with Rene and Juan for the day. With high winds that blew in from the North some larger than normal swells followed. They were able to find a school of Porpoise and tear up the Yellowfin Tuna for about half-an-hour before having Rene head back in. They had a great time and a fabulous fresh fish dinner at Misiones de Kino later that night!

Helen Tierney from New York headed out with her family for their second day with Redrum. Her first day was not exactly what she expected when the manifold on Red Beam went out! She was understanding enough to give us another shot and we were able to get them out on Rum Runnin with Javier and Manuel. Javier knew of thier situation and wanted them to have a great day on the water. He stayed connected to Rene on RedBeam and was hitting on the same school of Tuna within minutes of finding the fish. After the kids had reeled in about 5 Yellowfin, Manuel spotted a Stripe Marlin. A live bait was pitched and within seconds a 99" Stripe Marlin was hooked to the end of the line! The fish put up a heck of a fight but was no match for the Tierney Family! Great Job Guys and thanks for being so understanding.

Larry Powell headed out the hottest captain in town. Omar who was the captain that caught the Swordfish a few days ago has been walking around, chest out, head high for the past couple of days!! Jesus spotted a Marlin about 3 hours into their charter and the show was on from there. Bait pitched, boat back down, rod bending, hook set! Just like clock work the boys got to work and landed that Stripe! Mr. Powell was in the seat and after several minutes the fish was brought up to the boat for pictures.
