Feb. 21st

Lots of people in Cabo, which is a good think to see despite all that is going on in the world. Lots of people throwing their worries away and enjoying the warm inviting weather.

First to arrive bright, well not so bright yet, but early in the morning was the Salazar family. Caleb came with his 3 kids in tow, little Kaley and Will and mature Kaleb. All aboard with Omar and Ramon (Americo is out fishing the finger banks). They headed out and came back early after they had reeled in 8 dorado! Little Kaley had the line of the day “I just couldn’t do it by myself, they were too big!”. They’ve got plenty of dorado to take back to Denver with them, which is where John and I met them at the Sportsmen’s Expo Show. Good to see you guys again and we can’t wait to see the pictures.

Todd booked a group of guys down for Kai’s bachelor party. Some more hungover than others, I won’t mention names Garrett, but they arrived with 7 guys to board RumRunnin. Oopsie, reservation is for 6! As I had to explain, the Mexican laws are very strict on how many passengers can be on board of a certain sized boat. The Port Captain and Mexican Marines can get a company into a lot of trouble if they rule is broken. I said I’d love to let the 7 on board, but they understood the maximum was 6 guys for RumRunnin. Todd, was nice enough to stay back and let the other guys that hadn’t been to Cabo before hop on board while he went back to the hotel to catch up on sleep. They had a fun day on the water as their laughing and yelling was heard over the radio here in the office. Three catch and release marlin were reeled in by the rambunctious group.

The lastest report from the crew out at the fingerbanks is this… Utopia had caught 8 dorado yesterday afternoon, and by this morning had turned back around from finger as the bite wasn’t as strong. They were outside of Pescadero this afternoon and had caught 4 skip jacks, 2 catch and release marlin and 1 mako shark.

On Blue Thunder, the guys caught 8 dorado yesterday and decided to head to Sea of Cortez today. We’ll have the report on their catch later.

And Spartacus the last boat of the trio, have been busy busy, reeling in 40 dorado yesterday and 1 catch and release marlin at finger banks. Today they are at 2 catch and release marlin so far. They probably won’t get back until 5 or 6 this evening, so I’ll have to get you the full report tomorrow.

And for those of you that are freezing at home, scrapping your car and shoveling your walk, take a look at our Stay & Play Packages. They are a comfortable and affordable way to come to Cabo. So grab your friends and make a weekend out of it!

Have a great rest of the weekend!
