April 7th Fish Report

Sal, the captain on Red Beam came to the office wide eyed and with a look of shock on his face after he got back from his charter with the Knipfer party. Now Sal has been fishing Cabo for many years and he told me that he had not seen that many Marlin on a charter in 5 years. The amount of bait and the size of the bait balls were like nothing ever seen before. Red Beam was able to catch and release 5 Stripe Marlin and catch a yellowfin Tuna for dinner.

Mr. Chung and his family headed out for the first of their pair of charters on El Nuevo with Alex. Unfortunately the family got sick only an hour into the trip but, Alex was able to put them on 10 Yellowfin Tuna before they had to come back. Alex headed towards the Lighthouse and than out about 2 miles before he had a quadruple hook up. Juan was able to keep the lines tight enough to give everyone on boat a chance to reel in at least one Tuna. 10 Tuna in a little over an hour?? Not a bad gig!

Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were able to head out on Rum Runnin with Javier and Manuel. They were able to snag up 3 Stripe Marlin and release each one. They are probably glad that it was only them 2 and not the 5 people that were supposed to show up!! I hope you guys had a great time!

Mr. Rudd had a rough morning after he had some transportation problems with his cab driver. He eventually made it to the office, got on the boat, caught 2 Stripe Marlin and more Tuna than he can handle. Omar and Jesus treated him well as he was in need of a great time after a little difficult morning! Congrats on the great day!

The fish are out there, Marlin, Marlin, Tuna Tuna!! There was a report of some Dorado being spotted and some even caught around the Marina as well. Could just be all "hear-say" but it would be nice to get some Mahi to the table soon!!

Saludos,

Luis

Weekend Run Down

I hope everyone had a great weekend just like Redrum did. The fishing stayed very good over the weekend for us as we recorded several Stripe Marlin catch and releases as well as many many tuna in the area.

Right off the Arch about 12-20 miles out is where the boys primarily fished this weekend.

The panga fishing also proved to be active as we sent Steve Stephensen and his group of buddies out for a trip with Carlos. Yellowtail, and Rooster were the 2 targets for these gentlemen and they nailed both on their outing.

The weather was beautiful all weekend which made for excellent fishing conditions!
