The warmer the water surely more fish.

As another week goes by we start seeing more wahoo's and Dorados arrive to Cabo San Lucas, that is because waters are warming up every day. Today for example we are almost reaching 80F in the sea temperature. A lot of people say it's not necessarily true since they've caught fish in Cabo during cold seasons and cooler waters and of course its true, especially for Marlin who are here year round but their prime season is from June to November when the waters are warmer. I'd like to see someone catch Dorado or Tuna during the low 60F water temp. It can happen, but the chances are a bit low.

Anyhow, these past two days have been great for fishing. We're still targeting tons of Marlin, Tuna some Dorado and Wahoo.

No signs of Hurrican Adrian, like I posted on our previous fish report it's dying and won't hit Cabo. Seas are 7 ft high with 13 seconds in between. The temperature is 97F and it's starts feeling a bit humid, reminds me of my first year here in Cabo...I sure did not see all that humidity coming.

On Friday June 10th it was still a busy day, we had 5 boats going out.

Mark Burkhart fished on RedRum for 8 hours with Omar and Americo, a day before his trip he came in to check out the place and see what had been biting in the past couple of days. He said he wanted edible fish. His trip turned out great as he and his buddies landed a total of eight 30 lb yellowfin Tunas. He did say it was sort of rought out there but not too bad. Took it like a pro.

Peter Wallace and his party of 4 fished on Tantrum with Ramon and Juan, they were basically out there looking for fish in general. By the end of the day they had caught a total of 4 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 striped Marlin that was 101" and weighed 170 Lbs. Got their trophy fish mounted and will be displaying it at his home in about 3 months! Congrats Pete.

Lori McCullough and her party of 8 fished on the 38' Marlin Too for a full day. They had an awesome time out in the water even though it was a bit slow for them, They only landed a total of 3 yellowfin tuna. Enough for a nice lunch!

Stuart Lin Poor and Margaret Munoz fished on RumRunnin on Friday and Saturday with Captain Javier and Jesus. On day one of their trip they caught a total of 1 striped Marlin around 160 Lbs and 1 Tuna 15 Lbs. On Saturday they caught 5 more tunas and a Wahoo. It was Margaret's first wahoo. Congratulations.

Saturday June 11th.

Another nice Saturday in Cabo and lots of happy customers. The morning started off as usual, greeting customers, getting licenses and walking them down to their boats. The rest was up to their strength and patience.

Kevin and Michelle Krause fished on Tantrum, their trip was supposed to be shared but the other person did not show up. They started a bit late because we were waiting for the other person but 15 minutes past 6:30 and they were out fishing. They caught a total of 6 tunas 30 Lbs each, 1 Blue shark and a 130 Lbs Striped Marlin. Nice!

Justin Trahan from Houston Texas fished on Nuevo with Alex and Manuel. His trip was also cut short to bring back some of his crew but that didn't stop him from going back out and continue his fishing trip. All on his own he caught a total of 6 tuna and a Marlin that was caught early in the morning almost after leaving the dock. Not a bad day at all. He did say there was a time where it felt he was going to catch more fish but I guess they decided not to cooperate that much.

And last but not lease Blaine Wiley fished on RedRum with Omar and Americo for a full day trip with his party of 4 and during the day they landed a total of 2 striped Marlin, 1 Dorado and 2 tunas. Blaine will be fisihign again this Sunday and let's hope he can catch more fish than he did on day 1.

Thanks for Reading.
