Mucho Viento...

Translation = a lot of wind.


Lots of wind on the water today and some interesting water temps as well. Alex and Omar on El Nuevo and ReelRum headed back to the Pacific today towards the Jaime Bank. 69 degree water was waiting for them and they both quickly headed south. Omar made a big loop to the south with Ryan Dick and Ericka Murphy. They cruised out almost 20 miles at one point and finally found some action. They got into a nice school of porpoise and found some TUNA. They weren't able to get too many bites, but they did succeed in bringing in the first Yellowfin of the year for RedRum anglers. Congrats guys, great stuff.

Alex on El Nuevo with the Upshaw party also made a turn towards the south and the warmer water and was able to find Dorado. Alex and Ramon are making quite a team and they were able to get 5 or 6 strikes throughout the day. The Upshaw crew was able to bring in one really nice Dorado and they fought with several others, one for more than 20 minutes before the fish spit the hook. Spent some time in the office with the crew after they got back and really enjoyed their company. Hope to see them back in Cabo soon.

Winds should die down a bit tomorrow. Hopefully we can find that school of porpoise again, and get those Dorado to stay on the line.

Hasta Luego!
