Monday's Dorado Report, or fish report rather....

Once again, the Dorado are literally jumping in the boat for clients right now... Feels like August 2008 right now with tons of Dorado and some good sized ones at that. Certainly doesn't feel like late October, fishing wise, but luckily the weather is right on par for this time of year. Air Conditioner was turned off in the office again today for the second day in a row, hopefully the heat is gone for a while.

Seems like the huge congregation of Green Back Mackeral is taking it's time getting to Cabo this year and as a result we haven't seen Striped Marlin in huge numbers yet. Hopefully they are on their way.

That being said, Jerome and Louise Johnson of Georgia, broke the mold today. They actually caught a few billfish. After catching a few Dorado with Captain Omar and Mate Manuel aboard ReelRum, Jerome and Louise were treated to a few Striped Marlin for some catch and release action.

Jerry Garcia and his group finished up their final day of fishing for this years Cabo trip today and did ok, with 3 Dorado. Jerry has been bringing groups of guys down here for years and has always stuck with RedRum. I thought it was because of our service and ability to put his guys on the fish, but I may now be wrong. Next year, Jerry may be coming back for a different reason, as he has asked our office manager, Diana, for her hand in marriage. Jerry, thought nothing of the 40 year disparity in age and popped the question after meeting her for the first time. I'm not sure Diana even got a chance to respond before Jerry, jokingly of course, told her to think about it. It's a long shot, but Diana does seem to have a special place in her heart for passionate fishermen, that is certainly evident after working here the past 6 months or so. Jerry, we appreciate your business, great attitude and personality, and it is always a treat to meet the buddies you bring down. See you next year, pal.

Craig Ball and Mike Gibbas, along with Julie Coxter and Rita Phillips all from Scottsdale, Arizona joined us today aboard the Red Beam. Captain Cesar wasted no time and got this crew on the fish right of the bat. They each got the chance to spend some time with the rod and reel and tallied 8 Dorado by the time they made their way back to port. Congrats guys, and nice meeting you.

John Slocum and Gary Privett, referrals from my good buddy Chuck Corley, joined us today from Southlake, Texas. I have to send a special thanks to the Corley family and all they have done for RedRum Sportfishing. I am not sure their is a neighbor on the block that the Corley's have not convinced to come fishing with RedRum. That being said, John and Gary had a great day and they said we certainly lived up to the praise they had heard about us. The guys had their hands full all day battling Dorado as Captain Ramon did a great job putting them on the fish.

Mike Wall and Tom Melton, were back at it again today with Captain Ulyses on Grey Light. They had a great first day with Ulyses and convinced another RedRum group to switch with them so that they could fish with him again. They went out and searched for Tuna for a while and came back empty on the Tuna front but did catch a few more Dorado.

Matthew, Richard and Michael Perfetto, along with Hiep Dao, James Kelly and Tim Deklotz, down for a wedding fished with Freddy and Wes aboard Solmar Uno. The guys had a blast catching Dorado, at one point even getting a triple hook-up. They had a lot of hungry mouths to feed back at the hotel so it was good that they were able to get 9 fish.

Awesome day for RedRum anglers.
