Overcast Sunday, but no rain...

It has been overcast all day today, but not nearly the rainfest we had yesterday. I know it is a bummer for folks that came on vacation to get out of the rain and snow, but we could really use the rain down here. The sun has been trying to burn off the clouds all day and the rest of the week is supposed to be beautiful, so no worries that way.

As for the fishing, things stayed strong today with the two groups that were out on the water.

Kevin and Penny Neiberger along with friends Robin and Robert Engen joined Captain Ramon and his Mate, Juan for a day aboard TantRum. As has been the case lately, the guys started out fishing inshore and were able to get a handful of Sierra first thing in the morning. Once they got offshore, they immeadiately raised a Marlin and had it right next to the side of the boat, playing around with the bait, but never really taking it. The crew worked hard to get a bite on several other fish, but in the end they had to settle for the Sierra.

Elene and Brad Hess shared Rum Runnin today with Todd Strawn and Kevin Cooper. These folks were all on our share board and we were able to hook them up with each other and they had a great day on the water. Captain Javier and his Mate Americo found the fish today, catching and releasing 2 nice Striped Marlin. They also got into a few sharks, catching and releasing a juvenile Mako and a juvenile Hammerhead!! It is always cool to see those Hammerheads come up behind the back of the boat (when we aren't swimming behind the boat that is.) Glad you guys had a killer day!
