Slowly but Surely

A bit of a cloudy day here in Cabo with quite a chill this morning... well for Cabo anyways. But nothing compared to the negative temperatures I hear from clients in Canada or the Midwest. That's why you should be reading this report on a beach, not after you've shoveled your walk!

So one of the condo crews, Thomas, Gary, John, Carlie and Kenneth were back at it for day two on the water. They said even in Texas it's been chilly! Anyways, they were on El Nuevo with Captain Alex, yes, he's back from his vacation. They fished out at the Lighthouse and were able to pull in one catch and release Marlin from the surface on stitched bait.

The other group staying over at the Portofino Condos was also on their second day of fishing. Paul along with family and friends Patrick, Katherine, Belinda and Laurie were out on RumRunnin with Captain Chivo. They too fished at the Lighthouse, but found the marlin deep pitching live bait. They all took turns reeling in 2 catch and release Striped Marlin.

Our partner boat Grey Light took out Trenton from Houston. He made a last minute reservation last night and couldn't bare leaving Cabo without getting some fishing in. He was flying solo on the water after enjoying the day and night festivties that Cabo has to offer during the New Year holiday. He was stoked to catch a 98" Striped Marlin which he rleased and 1 Dorado out at the Lighthouse. On his way back in just about 2 miles from shore, the got into some Snapper, about 8 of them. Not bad for a 1/2 day!

Thanks for checking in with us. Hope everyone is having a great start to 2010!

On a side note, the Fiesta Bowl is a sensative subject. We were sorry to see TCU loose their undefeated winning streak against Boise. The good wife that I am, stayed back along with Diana to cover for John and Ryan while they enjoyed the "Fiesta" at the Fiesta Bowl in Phoenix. Now they are off to work in Denver and Dallas. For those of you in Denver, be sure to stop by the Sportsmens Expo and say hello to John. And any Dallas Safari Club members, be sure to stop by and pay Ryan a visit. Hasta Luego.

Slow Day but not emptyhanded

Gary, Thomas, John, Charles and Kenneth went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Captain Alex. It was quiet out but they caught a fifteen pound Dorado that they had for lunch. They fished the Lighthouse about four miles from shore.

Dave went out on our 32’ RumRunnin with Captain Omar. They fished Los Arcos about five miles from shore and caught and released a hundred and twenty pound Sailfish. Water was at seventy eight degrees.

2 boats, 8 Marlin

Jake and Kris from Idaho went out on our 32’ RumRunnin. Jake fished Cabo six years ago and described it as being more of a long boat ride. He was hesitant to book but in the end was glad he did and promised to tell all his friends about us and come back soon. Jake and Kris caught and released 6 Striped Marlin weighing between a hundred and thirty and a hundred and fifty pounds.

Stacie, Patrick and Tim from Arvada, Co went out on our 28’ Tantrum with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan. They fished Los Arcos, three miles from shore and caught and released 2 Striped Marlin weighing around a hundred and fifty pounds, each fight lasting close to forty minutes.

Dorado Day

Replogue Fishing Trips on El Nuevo, December 2009

Bye to 2009 fishies and hello 2010 big ones

Eric couldn’t wake his five friends up after their long night but that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to fish. Omar took him out on our 33’ El Nuevo and they caught 4 Dorado between twenty and twenty five pounds.

Scott and Kristin from Utah went out on our 32’ RedBeam with Captain Cesar. They caught and released a Striped Marlin and caught 4 Dorado.

Jake, Zach and Michael arrived this morning on the Radiance of the Seas and spent their morning fishing with Captain Javier on our 32’ RumRunnin. They fished Los Arcos about a mile from shore and caught 4 Dorado weighing up to twenty pounds.

Lukas and mom Elke decided to fish one more time before they head back to Austria. They fished 6 days last week with Javier and today fished on our 28’ Tantrum with Ramon. They fished Los Arcos about five miles from shore and caught and released a hundred and thirty pound Striped Marlin and 2 twenty pound Dorado. Not a bad way to end the year.

Near the End, Still Lots of Fish!

Another sunny day here in Cabo San Lucas, not a cloud in the sky from my post here at the office.

Just a side note, the TCU Horned Frogs football team have arrived in Phoenix and are ready to dominate on January 4th at the Fiesta Bowl. If you don't know what to wear on Monday, we suggest wearing purple in support of your TCU friends at RedRum Sportfishing. Go Frogs!

Happy clients with lots of fish getting ready to ring in the New Year down in Cabo had another great day on the water.

The Haut and Kessler party from Livingston & Gladstone, New Jersey were on board El Nuevo today. The first thought was to go to Jaime Bank to see what was out there. Nothing. Omar and Americo decided to head out to Golden where a solid Dorado bite has been. Sure enough, 3 Dorado later they were good to go!

Two buddies, Jim and Mike from the Phoenix area headed out with Chivo and Jesus on RumRunnin. They went past Golden Gate to an area called Gaspareno (pronounced: Gas-par-ain-yo) where they got into some Dorado on some feathers. They reeled in a total of 6 Dorado and one 20lb. Wahoo. They were generous and gave half the crew their catch!

Mike Tucci was out on the water again this time aboard Tantrum. With Captain Ramon, he was able to reel in 1 catch and release Striped Marlin and 1 Dorado at Los Arcos.

Aboard RedBeam was the Robinson family. A nice couple with their two twin girls from Burbank, California. They reeled in 8 Dorado and lost 4 in the fight. The action was intense out there as they said they had about 7-8 other hits on the line out at Migrino. Their two twin daughters did a great job on the rod! And, I'll have you know they are two quite famous little girls. For all you Dexter fans out there on Showtime, Christina is the daughter of Dexter on the show! Courtney has quite an acting resume as well. Thanks for fishing with us!

Jim & Zac Wittman along with George Liss from Michigan and New Hampshire headed out on our partner boat Anzuelo II today. They were happy with their catch of 5 Dorado which filled up their cooler they'll be taking back home with them. They almost had 8, with the 3 they lost in the fight. Asi es fishing amigos!

Hope everyone is getting excited for the New Year!

Thanks for reading on your holiday.
