Hey guys!

Carl and I are back at work and hating it! We need to be on vacation full time!! We totally enjoyed our trip to Cabo and LOVED our fishing with Omar and Americo. Here are a few pics of our Marlin and other stuff from our day of fishing. It’s not a question of IF we will be back, it is WHEN. Hopefully soon….

Adios…

Sharon and Carl

Sorry for the delay on Mondays report.

Yesterday was madness... We had five boats head out, 4 occupied by the Roberts wedding party and one by the Ferrigno's who are here enjoying our stay and play package.

The Ferrigno's headed out with Javier and Manuel aboard Rum Runnin and had a great day on the water. They saw tons of Marlin playing on the surface and pitched bait to numerous fish. They were able to catch and release Two nice Striped Marlin, after hooking up on live pitch baits. They were also able to get a real nice Dorado in the 40 lb range on a dead stitch bait.

David and Mike Roberts along with their wives, and 16 of their close friends are down for a wedding here in Cabo this week. The Roberts are from the Austin area so it was tough seeing them come in with their burnt orange fishing shirts. As most of you know, Team RedRum members Brooke and Ryan as well as Luis, all attended TCU and we have quite the instate rivalry. We put our differences aside and got to the task at hand, putting the 4 boats on some fish. Tough to get accurate reports, as the different boats came in all about the same time. I know for a fact that David Roberts and his crew on El Nuevo had 12 Marlin strikes and were able to bring in 4, catch and release. Being a Captain himself, David knew a good crew and he said Alex and Ramon on El Nuevo were the best he ever fished with. He was very happy with their day on the water. Marshall on the Red Beam, took out another 4 from their party and he too was able to catch and release 4 Marlin and also brought in 4 Dorado. Another member of their party came in to tell me they too had a great day, not sure which boat with a few Marlin, some Dorado and several Hammerhead Shark hook-ups.

Sorry for the lack of detail, but I think it is pretty evident everyone had a great day. Lots of Marlin in the water and the boys seem to be getting them on either live pitch bait, dead stitched bait or the kites. Dorado have been big in the 40-50lb range. Hammerheads have been devouring live bait, and there are even a few Yellowfin roaming around with a nice 40lb class fish brought in yesterday as well.

We will let you know how they boys are doing today as soon as we can.
