Awesome day on the water for RedRum anglers...

Today was a fabulous day for RedRum, a little windy but that didn't stop the fish from biting. The crews headed out to the warm water they found 15-20 miles straight off the Arch and once again had great success. With an abundance of squid in the water, getting the fish to bite live bait or artificial lures has been a bit tricky but today we got the job done. Winds at 20k and water temps in the low 70's should stay the same for the next few days.

Omar was the first to return around 2pm with 3 Dorado for Harry and Jerry who were sharing the boat. Omar said he saw tons of Marlin but most were not interested in bait or lures, he had a little action from them but no hook-ups. Glad we could get you guys out there.

Ramon and Cesar were the next to make it back with Brant and Carol Pate and Lou, Robert and Jade Simmons aboard El Nuevo RedRum. The Aggieland crew did well with the Horned Frog company today boating 4 nice Dorado, two over 40 lbs. They also spotted a ton of Marlin but once again, they couldn't garner any interest. They are heading over to Misiones de Kino to get the filets cooked up. Have to say I am a bit jealous. (It is always in the best interest of "Fish Karma" to offer a filet or two to the office staff.)

Finally, the top awards for the day go to Javier and Manuel on Rum Runnin who fished with Andrew Fox, Brandon Martin, Mike Dwyer and Wendy Weiler. They too headed south 15-20 miles and trolled dead bait and artificial lures in Petrolero and Black and Red colors. They were able to land 4 nice Dorado and caught and released 2 nice Striped Marlin. Congrats guys, hope to see you back down here soon.

Until tomorrow...
