Awesome Saturday.

Fished started to pick up today really good. We caught and released a Blue Marlin that was about 160 Lbs, we got Dan his first Marlin ever! and the seas were smooth.

After a long week and fish bites being a bit slow, we ended this last weekend of November with good numbers. Fishing took place by the lighthouse, winds were blowing very gently and seas were 2 ft while the sun was shinning at 80F...perfect day huh?

Even though Tuna is still no where around, we caught a blue Marlin which weighed 160 Lbs. Long time customer Matthew Bunnn and Heather Beaulieu from Washington fished with RedRum for the 4th time I think and their day was excellent. They fished on ReelRum with Captain Edgar and Mate Alonso. Their final number was 2 Marlin (one Blue and 1 Striped) and a decent size dorado which they kept for tomorrow's dinner. The striped Marlin was 100 lbs.

The CCA Hayes/Lambert party fished for two days while enjoying their stay at one of RedRum's Portofino Condo. Their first fishing trip with RedRum consisted of 4 Dorado, 2 Wahoos (The biggest one being 55 Lbs) and 1 Striped Marlin. First day was rough out there, I guess the weather channel did not foresee the real height of the seas for that day, which made me look bad, but all ended well...just a couple of seasickness but not that bad. Today was completely different. They caught and released 1 Marlin and a Wahoo while enjoying the awesome view of the ocean!

Dan Carhart fished on RumRunnin today alongside his wife Mary Ellen. Dan walked in the office yesterday asking for a charter and after being a bit hesitant to book the boat he finally decided to do it. He told me that he was going after Marlin Specifically, it's what he's always wanted but hadn't been that lucky. He even said he was an unlucky guy when it came to fishing....but that curse was broken with RedRum. He caught his first Striped Marlin by 8 AM just an hour after he took off and it was a 104" Stiper weighing a total of 140 Lbs! What a great size! Dan came back early and was very pleased with the trip. I knew something had gone great when I saw him walk in with that big smile off his face. It was something awesome. I'm glad you did it Dan. Congrats!!!!

Ryan Donovan and his peeps decided to go out on tantrum with Captain Alonso and mate Juan. They fished for a full day and came back with 2 nice Striped Marlin weighing 100 and 120 Lbs respectively.

Enjoy your weekend and be safe.
