Monday-Windy on the Marina, and Windy on the Water

While yesterday's breezy conditions on the Marina didn't effect the fishing, today the clients said it was a little bit more rough out on the water. No one came back early and I didn't hear of anyone feeding the fish, but the swells were a bit bigger today.

Ben and Christine Kraft, down from Alaska, joined us for a day on the water aboard El Nuevo RedRum. Chasing Marlin and Dorado is a bit different than Salmon and Halibut fishing, and they had a blast doing so. They each caught a Marlin and also caught a small Dorado for dinner.

Jason and Shelle Feldner, down from North Dakota, joined us aboard RedRum today. Jason guides fishing and hunting trips in the Dakota's, they just don't get too many Marlin up that way. Luckily, we were able to hook them up to one, which they caught and released and they also got into a nice school of Yellowfin. They ended up with 8 nice Tuna, some into the 50lb range.

Jeffrey Kaser and his crew have fished with us for years now, but today was not the lucky day. He fished with Javier and Ramon on Rum Runnin', and they pitched bait to countless Marlin (Javier said 10, Ramon said 12) but couldn't get bit. Jeff is back out on the water Wednesday, better luck then.

Sunday- Windy on the Marina, Nice on the Water...

The wind was howling today on the Marina, so I was expecting a few boats back early with sea sick customers. Not the case, everyone was back around 2:30-3:000pm with flags flying and big smiles. Apparently, out on the Pacific the water was smooth, just a random Southeast wind we were getting hammered by in the marina.

That being said, I am glad everyone was able to enjoy a nice day on the water. Eddie Dodds and the Deleware crew were back at it again today with Jesus and Manuel on El Nuevo RedRum and they headed out from the lighthouse and got into some Yellowfin Tuna. Eddie said, "We could have caught them all day, but wanted to head out and look for some Marlin." They never got that Marlin, but ended the day with 6 Yellowfin Tuna.

Robert Ross and Kindra Powers, down from Hopedale, Massachusetts, are back visiting us again for the 3rd or 4th time I believe. Robert always brings a 1 pound bag of Dunkin Donuts Coffee for me, and so far it's been good luck for him. Today they threw bait at tons of Marlin, but ended the day with 2 Dorado.

Dan Weisensel and Tracee were back at it for day 2, and after 3 Marlin and 1 Dorado on day 1, they finished up with 1 more Marlin today to top off a great trip to Cabo!
