September 3rd Report - Dorado Everywhere

Operation: Rooster, Sail, and Dorado!
Ron Kilgarlin and his wife Shawn had a great day on Utopia today. I spoke with Mr. Kilgarlin yesterday afternoon regarding his charter. He told me his gameplan was to catch head out early to try to catch some Roosterfish inshore around the Arch. After that he wanted to head out looking for a Sailfish for his wife, she wanted one bad! Their last goal was to land some Dorado for dinner for the next couple of days. Outcome: Rene and Raymond went to work. I told them of Mr. Kilgarlin's gameplan they talked about it for a minute and agreed to it. So, before sunrise they were already out past the Arch getting the gear ready for the Rooster. Sure enough, within minutes they were already hooked into a few of them. Mission Accomplished. Than they headed out towards Golden Gate where they were going to try their hand at the illusive Sailfish for Shawn. As luck would have it for the Kilgarlin, they landed a 100", 125-130 pound Pacific Sailfish! The boys got it measured and they were able to release! Great job. Naturally a boat full of Dorado followed as they are everywhere right now!! Congrats on the excellent day gang!

Next we had Omar and Reel Rum. Mr. Gibbs brought along his 2 buddies for thier first fishing experience in Cabo! They could not have had a better day. As soon as Jesus threw the lures out early in the morning they hooked into a Sailfish double! The Sails put up a good fight and took great concentration from Omar. It is very difficult to get both fish to the boat during a double hook-up. They tend to run in different directions making it hard for the Captain to turn the boat either way. On her way towards Golden Gate she was able to pick up about 7 Dorado for the group. Once they got to Golden they were able to spot a basking Stripe Marlin, pitch bait to it, catch it and release it. Great Day Gentlemen!

Rum Runnin also had a great day catching plenty of Dorado with the Kaser group. Mr. Oscar Blomgren from Chicago headed out with Marshall on Tantrum today and had a great day picking up a few Dorado to throw into the freezer at the Redrum office. One was of pretty good size, about a 50" Bull. As if we don't already have enough in here! Dustin Hanson fished on El Nuevo with Ramon and Slim, he bagged a 55" Dorado that is soon going to be sitting on his mantle at his home in Texas! He is also heading out again tomorrow to see if he can catch and release a Stripe Marlin with Alex and Slim. Hopefully he can get it done in 5 hour trip!!

I'll keep you guys posted.

Hasta Manana.
