Honeymoon and Anniversaries

Brian Watts is getting married and the wedding party plus a few go fishing. They rented our 32’ RedBeam, 32’ RumRunnin and our 33’ El Nuevo and caught so much fish we’re not sure where we are going to put tomorrows fish as our freezer is getting pretty full.

The group that went out on our 33’ Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Ramon fished the lighthouse point on the Pacific side, five miles form shore and caught 7 Dorado and 1 Striped Marlin. The Dorado weighed between 25-30 pounds and the Marlin that Brian caught and released weighed a hundred and sixty pounds.

Captain Marcial and Mate Fabian took the second group out on our 32’ RedBeam and fished between the lighthouse and Cerros de Arena a half mile from the shore. “The King”, father of the groom, caught a hundred and twenty five pound Striped Marlin. They also caught a 180 pounder which they released. They were looking for dinner when they stumbled on a triple hook-up Dorado. In total they caught 10 fifteen to twenty pound Dorado.

RumRunnin, another 32’ boat Captained by Javier and his Mate Manuel took the third group out to Los Arcos on the Pacific side and fished two miles from shore where water was at eighty five degrees. Danson caught a huge two hundred pound Striped Marlin which he released after a fight of an hour and forty five minutes. The group also caught 8 Dorado, three of which they released.

Newlyweds Sarah and Jason met Ryan Donovan, aka “Donny” on the plane to Cabo the other day. Ryan was in Texas celebrating football and remembering the college days. Go TCU! Anyways, they met on the plane and a friendship was formed. Ryan told them about the Cabo tradition of newlywed fishing and they came over to our office to get set-up for a charter. Since we have been booked for months we set them up on a nice 32’ partner boat that helped them catch 10 twenty pound Dorado by Los Arcos on the Pacific side. A good day fishing means this marriage is destined for bliss.

Joe and his wife Lu are in Cabo celebrating their 25th anniversary. They fished yesterday on our 28’ ReelRum and again today. Yesterday they caught and released 2 hundred and forty pound Marlin and 2 twenty to twenty five pound Dorado. Today they caught 2 forty pound Wahoo using feather lures, 9 twenty to thirty pound Dorado and Joe caught a hundred pound Sailfish which he released. They had a double hook-up on the Dorado and I have a feeling this marriage is gonna last at least another 25 years.
