Yellowtail, Sierra...and soon to be calamari

Martin went out on our 28’ ReelRum today with Captain Omar and mate Americo. They headed west on the Pacific side and caught 4 Sierra and 4 Yellowtail. The Sierra weighed around 8 pounds and the Yellowtail, 12 pounds. Fish were caught roughly a half mile from the shoreline where the water was 68 degrees.

John, “El Jefe”, went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with friends including Alonso and Ismael, best waiters at delicious Misiones de Kino, as well as Carlos, a highly-regarded and good to know, local police officer. All three were fishing for their very first time! Also trolling on the Pacific side by the lighthouse, about 200m from the shoreline, they caught a 3 ft Sierra, a 4 ft squid and a 200 pound Sunfish (catch and release) using Rapalla lures.

A slow day on the water but tons of fun.
