Tournament Weekend!!!

For the last three years we’ve been hosting the Trip Advisor fishing tournament. Basically a bunch of guys and ladies come down to do some hardcore fishing and drink some ice-cold beer. They’re also charitable types. These anglers believe in giving back to the communities where they fish. On Saturday, roughly twenty five kids sponsored by the Grupo de Apoyo Ray Thomas came down to our office to watch as our boats came back with their catch and to meet the anglers that have been supporting them. We took the kids on a boat ride and gave them some of the catch of the day to take home to share with their families. Grupo de Apoyo Ray Thomas provides opportunities for kids to get involved in sports camps after school and also runs a free lunch program.

On Sunday the anglers had to deal with on and off rain throughout the day but it just added character to their adventures.

Now for the fish reports:

Fishing between Los Arcos and the Lighthouse on the Pacific side just a mile or so from shore. The Dorado caught weighed between fifteen and forty pounds.
