Beers flowing and fish biting

It’s beautiful, sunny and warm Sunday in Cabo sitting at about 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the air and about 76 degrees in the water. The bite has been good these last few days with marlin and tuna ever present.

Robert and his wife Viki from Palm Desert, California headed out with Omar and Americo on ReelRum. We met them at the Fred Hall Show down in Long Beach. Viki wasn’t sure if she wanted to be out on the water as she hadn’t been fishing in about 20 years. After John talked to her about one of our great Mate’s Americo, she was convinced that he was her man to walk her through the whole fishing process. They headed out about 28-29 miles on the Sea of Cortez where they were able to catch and release 3 Striped Marlin. They also got a hold of about a 20 pound Yellow fin tuna that is currently getting prepared for their sushi lunch! I’m glad you guys had a good time; we look forward to seeing some pictures.

Mike Monks, Lee Hutchins, Scott Reich, Dino Camino, Billy Uhler and Mark Bowers from Maryland headed out on El Nuevo today. They are no spring chickens to Cabo, they come down often and fish hard for the time they are here. This is day 4 for them on the water. With 2 cases of beer on board, they checked in a bit late this morning and headed out with Alex on El Nuevo. They headed out to the Pacific side and were on the search for tuna. They hit it big when they got into some porpoise and landed 10 nice Yellow Fin Tuna. They'll be taking most of it back to the states with them all nicely vacuum sealed. We'll see you guys again tomorrow.

Thanks for checking in!
