Mucho Marlin

Swine Scare Update:
Humans and fish alike are as healthy as can be. Tourist fill the streets as restaurants, bars, shops and all activities are up and running. If you’re thinking of taking a trip south, Cabo is the place to be.

Three boats went out today and each caughtr and released Marlin.

Out on our 28’ ReelRum with 2008 Tuna Tournament crew champs Omar and Americo was John and his three buddies. They headed out to the sea of Cortez and caught 2
Striped Marlin using live bait.

Also fishing on the Cortez side were Javier and Fabian aboard our 32’ RumRunnin’ with Scott. This last minute trip scored him a nice sized Striped Marlin as well.

Fishing aboard our 33’ El Nuevo were the Bourgeois. They booked their trip through a charitable auction benefitting CCA and are enjoying our Play and Stay package. Alex and Ramon headed to the sea of Cortez close to point 1150. Water temperature was between 73-74 degrees Fahrenheit and winds were low. By 9am the group caught 2 Striped Marlin using live bait and a 3rd Marlin came in around noon using a lure. Besides the three that they caught and released the group saw many more Marlin as well as black Porpoise, feasting on squid.
