Wednesday update...

Tons of boats coming back today with no flags flying (non-redrum boats of course.) I won't point fingers or name names, but a lot of the boats on Dock A had a hard time finding the fish. RedRum boys however, had a good day on the water today. While it was somewhat slow out there, we got all our clients on fish. Most of the fishing was done on the Sea of Cortez a few miles out from the 95 bank.

The first boat back was the half-day share of Brad and Mike Hodge and Steve Milner and Lorna Contreras. Steve had been looking for a share for the past few weeks and we couldn't seem to find him one. As luck would have it, they shared a taxi down to the Marina from their resort with Brad and Mike who were coming down to the Marina looking to get on board with someone. Captain Tata was at the helm and as luck would have it, he hooked into the first BLUE MARLIN of the season for RedRum. Mike Powell had a 400lber last week on the Missing Lenk, however it wasn't with our clients, so we can't count that one. After 45 minutes, this bruiser of a Blue, estimated at over 200lbs snapped the line and swam away. Oh well, at least we know they are out there. Steve and Lorna were up next and they caught a nice Dorado in the 40lb class.

Wid and Joe were back for day two of their fishing trip and today they headed out with Captain Alex aboard El Nuevo RedRum. They once again didn't get into any Tuna of astonishing size, but they did bring 2 Yellowfin to the boat.

David Welch, Amado Maschmeyer, Keaton, Stratton and Smith Day, all headed out with Javier on Rum Runnin. While things were looking grim most of the day, a late Marlin strike made it all worth while. They saw a small bachelor school of 3 Stripey's on the surface and before they knew what was going on, the crew had hooked one of them. The Striped Marlin fought like hell, giving each person on the boat a chance to feel it's power. The guys estimated the fish at 160lbs.

Finally, we had Dustin Daniels and his wife with us today from North Carolina. They joined Captain Omar and Americo aboard ReelRum and brought in a Sailfish and 2 Yellowfin Tuna.

Great day for the RedRum Crew!

Diana is back tomorrow after being out for three weeks with a Broken Jaw. Welcome back Diana, we missed you. Ryan will be taking a much needed day off!
