Wayne and friends went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Manuel. They caught and released 2 Striped Marlin weighing a hundred and forty to a hundred and fifty pounds. They also caught 8 Dorado weighing between twenty five and thirty pounds, two of which were released. They fished Golden Gate on the Pacific side.

John fished with the Pro Challenge Fishing Crew, Saltwater Adventure. They’re down here for the Cure Kids Cancer World Championship with the Children’s Miracle Network. They fished on our 28’ Tantrum with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan. Gary from South Dakota caught his very first Striped Marlin, which he released. It weighed a hundred and twenty five pounds. He also caught his very first yellowfin Tuna, Roosterfish and Dorado. Kurt, also from South Dakota caught his very first Dorado.

Ryan Donovan also fished with Dave Underhill and Ryan Weekly from The Fishing Crew, a TV show that airs on stations such as NBC and ABC and the Sportsmen’s channel. They started off with a Dorado and 2 Tuna at San Jaime banks then went over to Los Arcos and got into a school of Dorado, catching six. Trolling back they found a school of Marlin and had a double hook-up and caught a third afterwards. They also unfortunately lost a 50 pound Wahoo at the side of there boat.

Thank you for another sensational fishing experience. This year's trip included 3 generations as my father and son joined my brother and I.

We brought in 2 150 lb Marlins, 20 Dorados, 11 Tunas, a couple of Amberjacks, and most special of all a 120lb Sailfish. The Redrum crews worked hard to give us a special week. They even threw in kite fishing which none of us had seen first hand.

We got a couple of great fish pics that are attached.

Thnaks to all!
