Easter Sunday

A beautiful Easter morning in Cabo San Lucas, completely sunny, clear blue skies and a light breeze. I can’t imagine a better day to be out on the water hunting for fish instead of eggs on Easter Sunday. Visiting us from Wyoming is John Benson, along with Jennifer and Sam Lewis. They went out with Omar and Americo aboard ReelRum. The water temperature at the Sea of Cortez sat at around 73 degrees Fahrenheit. The morning stayed fairly calm and the wind picked up in the afternoon on the way back in. They stayed along the shore and went out to Gordo Banks and caught and released 2 Roosters along with some 20 Sierra! They were catching on small Sardines and the live Mackerel bait as well. Great day on the water guys! We hope to see you down again soon.

The second RedRum boat out on the water today was RumRunnin. We met the fun family Tish, Greg and Elizabeth at the Fred Hall Show in Long Beach. With this being their second day on the water of the Baja, they knew what they were doing, and Elizabeth was ready for more after catching and releasing her first Marlin 2 days ago. They had their heart set on going after some more Marlin and Dorado so headed away from the shore on the Sea of Cortez. They didn’t reel in another Marlin, but they did reel in a few Sierras that they kept. The Early Bird around the corner fixed them up a nice plate of ceviche enjoy their catch! Elizabeth, the youngster in the group is no spring chicken when it comes to fishing, she’s been fishing way past her 9 and a half years, from Alaska to California to Cabo. She said it best, “It’s all for the love of the game.” Even if you don’t catch what you wish to.

Thanks for checking in and Happy Easter! (Sorry for the delay, Internet has been down at the oficina!)
