A Good Friday

Joining us today from Surfside, California was Tish, Greg and their charming nine year-old Elizabeth. The serious anglers that they are, Tish stopped by the other day inquiring about the conditions out on the water. She was understandably hesitant given the wind and the full moon and didn’t want to go home empty-handed. Luckily they came to RedRum. We paired them up with Omar and Americo on our 28’ ReelRum and they came back bragging about the Marlin they caught, and released, young Elizabeth would add. A true conservationist even at nine years!

Out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Alex and Ramon was Denis, Alison and Harvey from Canada. Not wanting to be left in the dust by a nine year-old they caught a Marlin as well and just about brought back some Dorado for dinner; next time guys!

A wise man once said, “A bad day fishing still beats a good day working” and we’re all pretty confident that the folks on our 54’ Utopia had a great time though no bites. Luckily they had plenty of beer and friends to enjoy their fishing trip turned whale watching excursion.

Hasta ma~nana anglers!

Yesterday's Fish Report (Thursday)

Sorry to everyone that checked in yesterday for our fishing report. We experienced some technical dificulties but not to worry, its all in the past and today we're making up for it with two reports, hooray!

Thursday April 9th, 2009 Fishing Report

Our first charter back today was our 28’ ReelRum led by Captain Omar and his mate Americo. Our champion crew from the 2008 Los Cabos Tuna Jackpot Tournament led our old friend Tom Plummer and new friend Tom Catlin over to the lighthouse for some inshore fishing. Tired of catching the beautiful Marlin Tom P. doesn’t care much for in a taco, they decided to focus on Sierra and Rooster fish. Both found themselves in Cabo this season without a partner to fish with so we added them to our shareboard and voila, a new friendship was forged. The partnership resulted in a successful catch of 27 Sierra and 1 Roosterfish.

Next back was our 32’ RumRunnin led by captain Javier and his mate Manuel. Also deciding to fish inshore were the Stritzke’s from Idaho. Water temperatures were between 72-73 degrees in the sea of Cortez, perfect environment for the 17 Sierra they caught.

And last but not least were Captain Alex and his mate Ramon on our 33’ El Nuevo, coming back with 3 Dorado’s for the Grenier party from Oregon and California.
