Today the inshore bite was a lot hotter than the offshore bite with the Bonita going crazy! Bait has been a little hard to come by the last few days, so the guys are going with 5 live bait and 5 Ballyhoo each day. Most of the action has been on lures anyway, but always nice to have something live to pitch when a Marlin is spotted.
Cosmo Amato, down from New Jersey with his uncles and cousins, headed offshore today after a decent Tuna bite yesterday and a few Marlin. Unfortunately, the bite shifted inshore today and they didn't get bit. Manuel and Jesus spotted two Marlin who unfortunately weren't interested and the guys got into 3-4 different schools of Porpoise but unfortunately no Yellowfin were around.
Chuck and Laura Soder down from Ohio joined Ramon and Juan, the crew of TantRum today and they had a little more luck offshore than Cosmo's group. Laura's dad was nice enough to buy them a day on the water because he really wanted his daughter to experience the thrill of catching a Marlin. What a great Dad! Well, mission accomplished as Chuck and Laura caught a nice 140lb Striped Marlin and 1 Yellowfin Tuna.
Tom and Cyndy Ruma, good friends of my wife Brooke's, from Nebraska were out with Omar and Americo today on RedRum. Tom is a semi-professional Bass fisherman in Nebraska, so we had to show him how it was done here in Cabo San Lucas. They decided to stay inshore today, and were able to catch nearly 30 Bonita, nearly all were released and also 1 Dorado. Cyndy said everyone had a blast and no one got sick, her main concern. Tom and Cyndy are now home owners here in Cabo so we expect to see a lot more of them.

Mondays, Ryan has a case of the Mondays...
*I don't need to hear from any of our loyal customers in the New York/New Jersey area today, I am well aware that the Patriots choked and lost to your beloved Jets. Just don't get too cocky about the rest of the season and end up putting your foot in your mouth.*
Now to more important news, offshore fishing in beautiful Cabo San Lucas. Football? Who cares about football when you live on the edge of the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean, one of the most beautiful and bountiful places in the world when it comes to offshore sportfishing!!!
Today we had Lewis Bush and his crew of 15 guys down from the Ocean City, Maryland Marlin Club. Founded in 1936, the Ocean City Marlin Club is one of the oldest in the country. http://www.ocmarlinclub.com/index.php
Fishing on four of our boats, El Nuevo, RedRum, Rum Runnin and Pescado III, overall the guys had a good day on the water. Some better than others, but that is usually the case. Top Honors for the day went to the guys on Rum Runnin who caught 3 Marlin, 2 Yellowfin and 1 Dorado. The other three boats accounted for 1 Marlin, 6 Yellowfin, 6 Sierra, and 5 Bonita. Welcome to Cabo guys, glad to have you here.
John Guardabasso and Sandra Medica joined Ramon and Juan for their second day on the water, a full day in which Marlin was the main target. While pitching bait to several fish, they were only able to get one big Striper to bite. They caught and released the Striped Marlin which was estimated at 150lbs.
Bruce and Kelly Domaille, down from Rochester, Minnesota wanted to catch "lots of fish" and "anything bigger than lake perch." I figured we could just send them out to catch bait with the bait guys and they would be happy. Instead, we decided on an inshore day and they were constantly hooked up finishing the day with 12 Bonita and 4 Skipjack Tuna.
