Prayers...
You may have noticed in my earlier post that we are short staffed right now. Nick Lopez, our wonderful office manager, had to return home to Mexico City for a family emergency. Our thoughts and prayers are with Nick and his family now, and hope you will do the same.
Catching up....
Sorry for the lapse in reports guys, we have been super busy here in the office and a little short staffed as of late. The fishing has been really good lately, with tons of big Marlin making their way into the Cabo waters. This is always the time of year that we start to see lots of big Blue and Black Marlin and it looks like this year will be special. The last week or so we have caught more Blue Marlin than any week since I have been down here. Should make for some interesting tournaments this year.
The bite has been pretty consistent with a few Yellowfin and Dorado each day, and plenty of Marlin. We did have one day earlier this week where the fish weren't biting, and I apologize for to those customers that didn't catch fish, but overall it has been good fishing.
We had Sunday off this past week so I will get you started with Monday's action.
Andy Sherwood and Greg Cook from Fort Worth, Texas joined the guys on ReelRum for a day and it was a memorable one. Andy was up first and he caught a nice Dorado, which was great, but I have a feeling he would have rather given his buddy Greg that first fish. The next bite they got was a serious one, and Greg got into the chair and battled for almost two hours with a monster Marlin. This was Greg's FIRST OFFSHORE STYLE FISHING TRIP and FIRST OFFSHORE FISH (I know that many of you are rolling your eyes in disgust, but be happy for the guy!) The Blue Marlin was estimated at 450lbs and Greg was stoked! Hopefully he is hooked for life and will be coming back to see us soon.
Our Stay and Play customers, the Sanchez's, Dee's and Smith's decided to take the ladies fishing today, and unfortunately the picked the rougher of the two days to do so. They were back by 11am, as some of the ladies weren't feeling great, but they still had a great day, fishing wise. They caught and released 3 Striped Marlin, one almost 10ft. in length, before calling it a day.
Father/Son/Daughter combo's the Goodenough's from San Jose, California and the Klempf's from Jacksonville, Florida each had nice day's on the water with 2 nice Dorado each.
Richard Campbell and Sergio Garcia, from Studio City, California each got to battle with a Striped Marlin today aboard Rum Runnin'. Both fish were caught and released.
Tuesday- Tuesday was a little slow and for some reason the fish weren't cooperating all that well but we had a few boats that did well.
Tray Balke and his girlfriend Maci Massengale from Houston, Texas joined us for a day on Anzuelo and they too were each able to battle a Striped Marlin. Salvador got them hooked up, showed them how it was done, snapped a quick picture for them and released the fish to fight another day.
Steve and Jennilyn Bumpas from Fort Worth, Texas are down on vacation with their two boys Colton and Drew. They joined the crew of Marlin Too today for a half day on the water. They had plenty of action, but not much success. They hooked into a Blue Marlin, a Striped Marlin and a Dorado, but lost all three.
Bad Day for Husband and Wife fishing groups, Eric and Donna Lonadier and Luis and Kristine Mitjans each came back empty handed today. I know the crews worked their butts off, sometimes the fish just don't cooperate.
The Zoellner's, Tom, Tommy and Artum, fished with Javier for half a day today on Rum Runnin. They had several hook-ups but managed only 1 catch and release Marlin.
Wednesday- Fish woke up after a slow day and action was back!
Jacob Bazella and his crew were down from Minnesota and Telluride, Colorado enjoying his timeshare for a week. They decided to get a day of fishing in and they had a nice day on the water catching a real nice Dorado and a 200+lb Blue Marlin.
Jim Rodriguez and his crew down from Los Angeles, California got into the Dorado with Ulyses on Grey Light and they landed 3 nice fish. One for each person on board.
Jon Meyers who is a repeat RedRummer, showed Daniel and Margaret Valles from Richmond, Texas how it is done. They fished with Javier aboard ReelRum and they caught and released a nice Blue Marlin estimated at over 200lbs.
Steward Mills was back at it again yesterday after getting skunked the first day out. He was certainly rewarded on day 2 with Javier and Americo getting a real nice Dorado and a Striped Marlin.
