One might think so after seeing the boats come back today! For those of you that were lucky enough to be down here or even read about it, in late 08' through February of 09', a massive amount of Striped Marlin spent about 4 months feeding and putting on quite a show up at Golden Gate. Welllllll, they might just be back.
Pat Suffern and his group of 10 buddies, all from the New Orleans area are down on a Stay and Play Package. They fished aboard Rum Runnin and El Nuevo today and had absolutely phenominal Marlin fishing at Golden Gate. Rum Runnin was the first boat back and they had 8 Striped Marlin, 1 Sailfish and a 1 Dorado. El Nuevo wasn't far behind and they took the daily prize with 10 Striped Marlin and 2 Dorado. The guys said it was absolutely incredible out at Golden Gate with Feeders and Tailers all over the place. They also had great things to say about the crews working hard throughout the day, all the way until the end, even though they had banner day's by noon. Great stuff guys!
Allister Brookes fished by himself today aboard ReelRum and he too had all he could handle with 3 Striped Marlin and 1 Dorado. It gets tough to bring in as many as the Suffern groups did when you are fishing by yourself.
John Laffey and Geraldine McKiernan are visiting from Florida and they have two days fishing with us. After catching Mahi, Wahoo, Sails and just about everything else the ocean has to offer, today Geraldine made it well known that she was after her first Marlin! Ramon and Juan on TantRum didn't dissapoint, they caught and released 6 Stripers by the time things were said and done.
Dave Bartos, who is bringing his kids back for some fishing later in the week just couldn't wait to get out on the water so he spent the morning fishing from a Panga, inshore. He caught a heap of Roosterfish (they are all over the place right now and aggresive) and a few Dorado as well. Not too shabby.
Kaye Peters and her folks were out with Omar and Americo today for their final day of fishing before heading back to South Carolina. We will be sad to see Jerry and Cordelia go as they are such sweet people, but I think we sent them off in style. They caught and released 15 Dorado, 4 Striped Marlin, and 3 Bonita today. Luckily, they saved a few Dorado filets for us to enjoy at Misiones de Kino tonight. Thanks again for coming down and fishing with us, it is always such a pleasure to have you guys around and on-board. You are truly a part of the extended RedRum family!

Busy Sunday in Cabo!
Fishing has been red hot for all our anglers this month and the streak continues. Dorado and Yellowfin have still been around in great numbers and we are starting to see some awesome Striped Marlin up at Golden Gate. Feeders and Tailers everywhere!
Jason and Clayton Bourne, down with a big wedding party took out three boats today. Ramon and Juan on TantRum were able to hook into 1 Marlin, 3 Yellowfin and 1 Dorado, Alex and Manuel on El Nuevo were able to hook into 1 Marlin and 7 Dorado, and Omar and Americo were the unlucky ones, with several Marlin strikes but only 1 Dorado on the day. Of course, as things played out, the Bourne brothers were with Omar and Americo. They spend all the time getting the boats booked and herding everyone down here and they were only rewarded with one little Dorado. That being said, they were stoked all their friends did well.
Craig and Amanda came in late on Friday afternoon and unfortunately, all our boats were booked up. We got them out with Luis on Cabo Chica though and they had a blast with Dorado but what Craig really wanted was for Amanda to hook her first Marlin. It took a few hours, but mission accomplished! Congrats!
Cody Lavelett and Mike Kiser were back at it again for their second day on the water and the ladies, Tonya and Joy went along as well. They fished with Captain Javier and his mate, Jesus. They got into a nice school of Tuna and the fish were hungry. They ended the day with 7 Yellowfin and a Marlin as well.
The Thornton's were back at it again today aboard ReelRum with Edgar and Omar. They had another great day bringing in 2 Striped Marlin and 2 Dorado.
Our good friends Kaye Lynn and her folks and nephew from Atlanta, decided on another day on the water today and they wanted to go out and search for Tuna. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, it's not called catching, it's called fishing. They never could find a school that wanted to eat. They have one more day on Monday and I am sure they will succeed.
