I hope everyone had an amazing Memorial day weekend. Here in Cabo things were great, and I can't stress that part out too much!
We had a great fishing weekend even though it was a bit windy, but still the sun was shining and we had very nice temperatures. Wouldn't hurt to put some sunblock on and if you forget, you can always purchase it here in the office as part of our new SunBlock/Solar recovery line.

May 23rd-36th= AWESOME FISHING!
Hi All!
It's been a very busy week filled with lots of fish , fun and nice warm temperatures! This has been one of the best weeks this year if I may say so!
At the beginning of this week, we thought it would be slow but it started picking up pretty darn good and everyone who has been fishing has been coming back stoaked about their trips. They've kept their fish and taken them to restaurants to get it cooked up, the best praises go to Misiones de Kino for their fantastic job!
Tons of Marlin, Tuna and a few Dorado have been caught and those are the three big spieces that have been biting great this week. We've all read that Tuna and Marlin were great a few weeks back, but now add some Dorado their and you have yourslef a great fishing trip.
Sorry we haven't updated the blog but like I said, it's been crazy, a lot of things going on on this end, and the weekend looks pretty busy as well but we can't complain!
Here is a brief recap of what happened these 3 days.
May 24th:
Michael Wysocki along with friends and family fished on our 33' Nuevo for a full day trip and came back with 3 nice tunas which weighed 25-30 Lbs each and they also caught and released 3 striped Marlins 80,130 and 150 Lbs each.
another successful Marlin fishing trip was with Rob McCalland and his party of 4 who fished on our 28' Tantrum. They wanted Marlin and so they did! they caught a total of two (both were caught and released) they were 90 and 91" each and they weighed 140 and 145 lbs.
May 25th
Lisa Fiorito and Mike Mackessy fished on our33' Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Manuel. Their fishing trip consisted of 5 yellowfin tuna and 1 40 lbs Dorado. The tunas were 15-25 Lbs. It was a great day for these folks and they were super friendly! Hope to see you soon.
Ron Matherene and his party of 4 also had a successful fishing trip this day. They fished the Sea of cortez on our 31' RedRum with Omar and Americo. They caught a 100 Lb Marlin (released) 3 yellowfin tuna 15-20 Lbs and 1 Dorado.
May 26th
Quinton Jones and his pals fished on RumRunnin with Javier and Jesus. They fished for a half day but they came accross Marlin and caught a nice 120 pounder! Not bad for a half day especially if we take into consideration that marlin fishing has been far away around 30-35 miles out. Congrats.
David White and his group had initially planned to fish for a full day, but since the waves were a bit high and it started getting a bit choppy out there, they decided to head back in early. During their short trip they landed 2 yellowfin tuna. One was 20 Lbs and the other was 25!
And last but not least, second day of fishing for Ryan Pomroy who fished on Monday as well. This time he and erica went out for a full day and by the end of their trip they had landed 5 big tuna (20-25 Lbs) and 1 striped Marlin. They also fished on the Sea of cortez side.
Thanks for reading and sorry for the delay!

Awesome Saturday in Cabo, Filled with Fish!
Yo yo, What's goin' on people? Nice weather today in Cabo, not a lot of people walking by the Marina today but good fishing has been taking place. I barely found out this morning about the world coming to an end today...yet here we are with all our boats out fishing! Nothing bad yet =0)
Yesterday's fishing was superb, all our boats caught tuna, dorado and marlin!
On RedRum we had Ace Schlameus and his crew fishing for a full day;However, seas were a bit rough so they decided to call it a day just a few hours after they had taken off. Still, even after only fishing for a few hours they caught a total of 2 yellowfin tuna and a Dorado. Not sure how big they were but I'm guessing that the average was 20-25 Lbs for the Tuna and 10-15 Lbs for the Dorado, considering the fact that that's how big the fish were for the other boats who also caught the same fish species.
On Tantrum Ginger Maness and her party of 4 fished for a full day as well but came back early because of the swells. Never the less, they caught 2 striped Marlins between 140-150 Lbs in less than 15 min. They fished on the Sea of Cortez Side.
Charles Wilson fished on RumRunnin, and although his trip was originally scheduled for Thursday, they fished on Friday (Happens to everyone!) anyhow, they had a great day in the water with Javier and Jesus, they landed a Marlin and 2 Tuna.
And last but not least, the "B's!" their last name is a bit hard to pronounce and even to write LOL, Chris Brzozowski and his party of 6 fished on Nuevo with Alex and Manuel. This was their first trip out of two that was planned. They are staying at one of RedRum's Portofino Condos. These CCA members, fished for 8 hours and had a blast out in the water, landing a 100 Lb Striped Marlin and 5 Tunas about 20-25 Lbs each. It took them an hour and 15 min to reel the Marlin which was released in the end. Hopefully tomorrow will be just as great as it was on day 1.
This just in. Kelton and Veronica McCaffrey along with Lance and Kelli Harpe fished on RumRunnin today May 21st and landed a total of 1 Striped Marlin 175 Lbs, 1 Dorado 15 Lbs, 1 Tuna 25 Lbs and a Blue Shark 140 Lbs. They had such a great time in the water and also had a Wahoo but this one eventually got away. Otherwise they would've had their offshore fix set! These nice folks from Napa, California will definitely be coming back again for more Fun. Glad they had a blast...Northern Cali in the house!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great week.
It's been a while, but we have great news. A lot of great fishing has been going on here in Cabo.
Fishing is no longer only on the sea of cortez side, but it has also started hitting the pacific side. Marlin, Tuna, Dorado are in even though Dorado is still a bit mellow, it's coming in! I can bet this season will be great for Dorado fishing.
Don and Barry Whitaker, CCA Members from San Antonio and Houston fished for two days on our 33' Nuevo. Even though their first trip was a bit slow consisting only of 1 yellowtail, their second trip sure made up for it. On their last trip which was yesterday they caught a total of 7 Yellowfin Tunas and 2 Dorado. The Tunas weighed about 15 - 20 Lbs. Thanks Guys for fishing with RedRum. Hope to see you again in the near future.
Charles Meyers fishin on RumRunnin on Tuesday and caught a total of 1 tuna (15 Lbs) and released an 8 ft 140 Lb Striped Marlin. They fished with Javier and Jesus. It took them 50 mins to catch and release the Striper and was caught on the pacific side, just 11 miles out.
From New Jersey Kurt Wille and his crew fished on Tantrum last Tuesday with Ramon and Juan and after a half day trip they managed to catch and release a Striped Marlin. Not sure how big it was since they got off at the Cruise Ship Dock to walk around. Thanks
Norman Johnson fished on Wednesday with Javier and Jesus and during this full day trip him and his buds landed a 25 Lbs yellowfin Tuna and a 30 Lbs Dorado. Nice!
And on the sea of Cortez side, a shared boat by Randy Becker and Brent Jenson also had a succesful ending. They landed 5 yellowfin tunas about 25 Lbs each. It was a bit slow in the morning but picked up later that day.
John and Ryan Donovan also fished yesterday on RedRum and RumRunnin both boats caugt a total of 10 Yellowfin tunas, the biggest being 30 Lbs, 2 Dorado and 1 Striped Marlin. They had a great day in the water and will be doing it again tomorrow! Let's see how they do.
Thanks

Friday the 13th, what will it bring?
Friday the 13th...
Carl Moberg, down in Cabo for his daughters wedding, decided to add a little more fun to the weekend and took a few guys from the wedding party fishing. Carl fishes commercially in Massachusetts for Striped Bass and we had a nice chat about fishing in his neck of the woods as I occasionally get back that way for Striper and Bluefin fishing. The one thing they don't catch a lot of is Marlin back in his neck of the woods so it was nice that they were able to Catch and Release a nice Striped Marlin.
George Kahle and his two sons, Aaron and Bryan had a nice day on the water with Jesus and Jesus on Rum Runnin'. Father and sons fishing and father and son Captain and Mate! Pretty cool. They caught 2 nice Yellowfin and also hooked a big 108" Striped Marlin that they got to the boat. George came back to the office and told me how impressed he was with the Jesus' and how they were able to get the fish hooked up! Always great to hear about the hard working crews we have!
The Miller party, in from Louisiana on a Stay and Play Package had their second day on the water today and after catching 18 Yellowfin and a Dorado on day one, they had Billfish on their minds. The boys on El Nuevo RedRum did not disappoint as they were able to catch and release 2 nice Striped Marlin! They had a great time at the condos and enjoyed their trip, especially the chef we sent up to the condos to prepare their Yellowfin and Dorado!
Finally, Bob Babei, who joined us from a cruise ship fished today with Cabo Chica. They only had a half -day to fish, but they slayed them out at the 1150! Bob was alone and caught 3 Striped Marlin, 2 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Dorado! Not a bad day on the water, especially a 5 hour half day!

Thursday, May 12th Where did the Tuna go?
Wondering where all the Yellowfin from yesterday ran off to? After catching more than 30 Yellowfin yesterday, fish were hard to come by for some reason today.
The Souza family, fishing on Rum Runnin was the first boat back and after seeing a few Marlin that wouldn't bite, their time was up and the half day didn't give them enough time to get hooked up.
Daniel and Dawn Brennan joined us today from the cruise ship and they were able to hook into a random Yellowfin that wasn't swimming with any school mates. They finished up their half day with just the 1 Yellowfin.
Joe Thilbourg and Vanessa Cortez fished RedRum with Omar and Americo and also found a random Yellowfin. While we had a few Yellowfin today, none of the Captains found the big school that brought double and triple hook-ups.
Finally, Don Black and his party, fishing on Marlin Too with Captain Pancho, caught 1 Dorado and 2 Yellowfin Tuna.
Hopefully we can find the big school again tomorrow.

Blogger Craziness
Sorry guys but we just lost a bunch of recent posts....
Not sure why, but certainly a bummer.
I am writing a piece now for Coastal Angler Magazine's June edition and will blog a preview of it here shortly.
Thanks,

IGFA World Billfish Championship's!
Well Alex and Manuel on El Nuevo RedRum have had a great tournament so far and are certainly within striking distance today of reaching the top 5! Right now they are in 8th place with 1230 points after 3 days of fishing. 1200 points for Marlin caught and 30 points for the 3rd largest Dorado of the tournament which was 30lbs.
The IGFA Tournament is different in that you never know who is going to be on your boat each day, the teams are randomly assigned boats and the Captain and Mate are then in charge of putting them on the fish. Once they get there, the Captain and Mate can not help the angler in any way. Some days you are fishing with a team with a ton of experience, other days you aren't.
Everyone misses hook-ups, even our guys, and while El Nuevo had 3 Marlin yesterday, he said they missed 3 more that they should have or could have had.
As the standings sit before today's final day of fishing, Alex is 3 Marlin off the lead.
Wish the guys from El Nuevo RedRum the best today in their quest for the International Game Fish Association's World Championship!

Hi everyone!
Hope everyone up north had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday.
Brothers, Patrick and & Ross Hardage from Los Angeles and Dallas headed out this morning with Omar aboard RedRum. Patrick had been down fishing with us once before over a year ago and is back for more! They headed straight out from the Arch about 20 miles where they had a phenomenal day on the water. They pulled in 6 Yellow Fin Tuna, in the 20-25 lb. weight range. One good sized Dorado and a whopping 40 lb. Wahoo! Excellent job guys! They'll have plenty of fish to eat for weeks to come. Don't forget, when you fish with RedRum, we vacuum seal and freeze your catch so you are easily able to take it home with you in a plastic cooler as a checked bag on your airline. These two are ecstatic to be bringing some fresh catch home with them. Hope to see you guys again soon!
The guys on TantRum in the Thurston party from Jackson Hole, Wyoming had a good day out on the water with Captain Ramon. They headed out towards San Jose on the Sea of Cortez about 14 miles out from the Palmilla. Despite a hot semi calm day on land the seas out there were a bit rough, but they managed to pull in three, 20-25 lb. Yellow Fin Tuna on board. They'll be enjoying a nice Tuna steak dinner. Check back in tomorrow to see how the Thurston party does on Day 2.
That's all she wrote. Check in tomorrow for the latest and greatest!
Thanks, Brooke +1

A bunch of Marlin and Tuna!
Happy Mothers day everyone! What are the plans for you guys on this Sunday? Remember to embrace and love your Momma! without them, we would not be here.
Fishing here in Cabo has been great these past two days. Lots of Marlin and Tuna are biting right now which is awesome considering that Tuna had been gone for quite a while but it seems like they are back and not too far away!
We've been catching Tuna around 11 miles out of here, so if you have a scheduled trip, make sure you speak to your crew for the best fishing options!
On May 6th we had 5 boats going out.
Fisrt we had Stephen Knight who did a half day fishing with Ramon and Juan. Stephen from the UK caught a total of 3 Striped Marlin and 1 Yellowtail during the 4 days he fished with us. He began his fishing trip on May 4th along with Katherine Knight but after day 1 Kathy decided to stay away from the boat and do girl stuff the following 3 days. Stephen, decided to go solo and had a great trip out there. Hopefully, he'll come again for more fun. He sent in some pictures which I will post shortly.
Ron Frost fished on RumRunnin this Friday and caught and released a 71/2 120Lbs Striped Marlin. He fished with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus along with Chris, Aaron and Dennis. These guys had a great day in the water and really enjoyed fighting the Marlin.
Greg Walsh and Rachel Schlanger fished on a Mucho Loco boat and caught 1 Marlin and 1 Dorado. They did not come back to the office after their trip but I heard from the crew that they were excited about their catch. They had a great trip out there and I'm sure we'll hear from them soon.
Ryan Donovan and his family went out on our 33' Nuevo and their trip was all about Tuna and Marlin. They caught and released a Marlin and kept the tuna. It was a great day out in the water for the Donovan's who were here in Cabo for Ryan and Brooke's baby shower!
May 7th (yesterday) was also good fishing, From Austin Texas and on their second trip, Brian Replogle, John Sparrow and Shane Goodman fished for a second time on Nuevo with Captain alex and manuel. This time they caught a total of 7 yellowfin tuna and a striped Marlin. These nice folks bought their S&P package through CCA. Brian told me this morning that he was plannin on bidding for another package in the upcoming auction! Hope to see him around again. The ladies decided to enjoy a Saturday at the malls, spa and doing other girl stuff while the guys enjoyed a nice cold beer while heading out for their catch. They had Chef Cesar come into the condo to fix up a nice meal with their tuna. They had a great time last night.
David and Martha Bauer fished for a half day on our 31' RedRum with Captain Omar and mate Americo. Their trip began at 11 AM and had a slow but good day. Their total catch was 2 yellowfin.
From Sacramento California, Moira Sharma and Tim Aspinwall fished on our 32' RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus. They did a half day trip and caught a total of 2 yellowfin. They took some fish to get it cooked up, Ithink they were going to go to Misiones de Kino with our friends Israel and Renee, the rest of the fished they donated it to RedRum. Thanks guys!
Thanks for reading and have an awesome Sunday!

Fishing here in Cabo has been great these past two days. Lots of Marlin and Tuna are biting right now which is awesome considering that Tuna had been gone for quite a while but it seems like they are back and not too far away!

Robin & Sean's fantastic pics.
Great Pics from Robin & Sean Sulz.
Thanks for sending these in! We really appreciate them.

Happy Cinco de Mayo!
What's happening people!
Happy CINCO DE MAYO!!! and it's weird but here in Mexico we really don't celebrate it as they do back in the states I don't know why! They should though since it was the first battle where Mexico's army defeated a strong Force (The French Force).
But on to the fishing news.
MARLIN, Marlin and more Marlin. The 1150 and 95 banks are still the places to go fishing. Like we've said in previous posts, it's 30 miles out around an hour and half to get there, but we've been successful in most of our attempts.
These past couple of days have all been about offshore fishing rather than inshore. There was a day where inshore was basically not biting to well but everyone who did offshore caught fish.
May 3rd:
Mike Nitido and his gang fished on RumRunnin with Javier and Jesus and together they reeled and released a striped Marlin. Not sure how bit it was though, but I know they fished on the 1150.
Raul Couret fished on Nuevo along with his peeps and this group had an awesome day out there. They caught a total of 3 stripers! They were all caught and released. The weights were 80lbs, 120lbs and 160lbs. They had a great day with Alex and Manuel. Congrats
Last but not least Dennis Anderson fished on a panga and he landed 4 nice spanish mackerels. 10 lbs each.
May 4th
Stephen & Katherine Knight fished on their first out of four trips with us. On their first day they got upgraded to a bigger boat (what a nice way to start off their fishing trip) they went out with Alex and Manuel and landed a total of 2 Striped Marlin that were 130 and 190 Lbs, the latter took almost 2 hours of fighting!
David Gonzales fished on his second trip on RedRum with Captain Omar and Mate Americo and also landed a Marlin. These guys are currently fishing on the same boat and hopefully they'll catch more fish today.

Monday's Marlin Madness...
Everybody was after the Billfish today! No one wanted to stay inshore and chase the Roosters or the few remaining Yellowtail, but no problem. Off towards the 95, and 1150 Banks the boys went with Mackeral and Ballyhoo rigged and ready.
Brad Major and Jennifer Bond were the first boat back with Captain Javier and his mate Jesus, they were the lucky winners today with 2 Marlin caught and released. Avid fishermen in Florida, they were stoked to be able to get on the Billfish as they get their fill of Dorado (chicken dorado) and Tuna back home.
Rick and Nancy Casper fishing aboard RedRum with Captain Omar were also able to coax a nice 150lb class Striped Marlin into eating. They were very excited about their catch as they had thrown bait to several Marlin before getting this one to bite!
Finally, William and Marlea Roberts, along with Ramon and Jesus caught and released another nice size Striped Marlin in the 150lb class. Great to see that with the arrival of the mid-70's water in the area we are also starting to see large amounts of billfish. Couldn't come at a better time as the International Game Fish Association's World Championships are coming up next week and Captain Alex and Mate Manuel will be fishing the tournament aboard El Nuevo RedRum!

Roosters Roosters!
Finally found a few of these pesky little guys! Mind you Roosters around Los Cabos don't really stick to a certain time frame of when they come and go, at least from what I have seen the past 5 years.
That being said Captain Omar and his clients, Dan and Paige Sciantarelli, were the first ones back to Marina after fishing a half-day aboard RedRum. Omar found a huge concentration of bait up on the Pacific side, near the lighthouse and they caught 7 Sierra and 7 Roosterfish. A few of the Roosters were in the 20lb range! Cool to see the Roosters banging around on the inshore again.
Our next group was Spencer Falls and his Stay and Play Package group from Texas. They fished again on El Nuevo RedRum and after 3 Marlin on day 1, they too wanted to try a bit of inshore fishing. They had a nice mixed bag with 4 Sierra, 4 Yellowtail, 1 Skipjack, and 1 Rooster. About mid-day they decided to head offshore for a bit and they were able to also Catch and Release their 4th Marlin of the trip! Great meeting you guys, and hope to see you back down here again next year.
James and Janel Rossetto and friends Phil and Kathy Schneider fished aboard Rum Runnin' with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus. These guys were after Billfish and wanted some action. After spotting and pitching bait to several fish, they were finally able to Catch and Release a really nice 10ft Striped Marlin. Congrats on your first Billfish guys!
Chris Rowe, our good friend from Las Vegas, Nevada, was down celebrating his birthday with a bunch of friends and few of them decided to head out on the 38' Blackfin MarlinToo. Chris is Marlin guy and Captain Pancho was able to put him on 2 nice Stripers, both were caught and released.
