Good friends, good friends...

Today I had the pleasure of meeting Scott Deardorff, his son Briggs, and Briggs' buddy Tucker Atterbury. Scott is a partner of Deardorff Farms in Ventura, California and has been a mentor/boss to one of my very best friends, Geremy Olsen for several years now. Scott wanted to bring Briggs and Tucker down as a high school graduation present and Geremy told them they had to fish with RedRum! Briggs looked a little green when he got back, but Tucker and Scott had a blast. They fished with TantRum and had 2 really nice sized Yellowfin, 1 good size Dorado and a monster 150lb (estimated) Sailfish! Great day, awesome filets, and a great dinner at Misiones de Kino.

Joe Foster and Chris Turner spent day 3 of 5 with Alex and Juan on El Nuevo RedRum and they came back with 1 Marlin and 1 nice Yellowfin Tuna.

Susan Sieger and Mary Cavanaugh spent the day with Captain Omar on RedRum and they had an awesome day getting into multiple schools of Yellowfin. They finished the day with 5 really nice fish, all Yellowfin in the 20-30lb range.

A few bigger Tuna have been caught recently, meaning some of the bigger Yellowfin have finally caught word of the abundance of bait and warm water in Cabo. Hopefully, your reading this and realizing the same thing. Time to get to CABO!!!

June 15th, mixed bag fishing, beautiful weather.

Today was a little warm, but a really nice day on the water. Water temps have stayed up and the fish are hanging out anywhere from the shoreline to 8-10 miles offshore. Haven't had to run too far to get into the fish and that is always a plus. (Not like our "long runs" are all that long anyway.)

Jeff and Zack Muscat a father and son group were down celebrating Zack's high school graduation and Dad really wanted to celebrate with a Marlin. The boys did their best on TantRum and pitched bait to a few Marlin, but they just couldn't get hooked up. Zack's consolation present was a nice Yellowfin Tuna and 2 nice Dorado. Not too shabby.

Gloria Baca, David Staszewski, and their friend Mark George were out today for the final day of a 3 day fishing trip. Gloria and David first came down in December and had a few great days on the water. They also fell in love with Cabo and told me they were done fishing in Florida. Cabo only from now on! The way it should be. They had a great final day, after catching Sharks, and Marlin the first 2 days, they finished up by filling the cooler with 3 nice Yellowfin and 2 nice Dorado! See you guys in November!

Ryan Tucker and his wife Karla, (both former Horned Frogs, and therefore great people,) joined us today to fish aboard Rum Runnin'. Only problem was, we blew a piston on Rum Runnin' on Tuesday. Total bummer for the client to show up in the morning and not get what they expected, and we feel terrible as well. (The $1200 to fix the engine isn't a good time either.) Ryan and Karla were super cool about switching boats and they had a nice day on the water catching 4 Yellowfin between 20-30lbs. Ryan was looking for "bucket list" Marlin, but they couldn't get one to bite. Next time amigo, for sure. Go Frogs!

Finally, Joe Foster and Chris Turner decided to spend day 2 of 5 inshore focusing on light tackle fishing. They had a nice day with 2 Roosterfish and 1 Dorado.
