Jeff Benon's 8 Ft 150 Lbs Striped Marlin

Hello All,

Things have been ok here in Cabo, as the days go by the temperature keeps getting warmer each day. I can just imagine this will be a hot summer!
Days have been sunny and winds pick up in the afternoon but nothing major, hasn't stopped us from catching fish.

On Sunday March 13th we had Jeff Blackburn, SamDeMaria, Kris Tarpey and Mike Tarpey fishing on our 31' RedRum with Captain Omar and mate Ramon for a half day. They mostly wanted small fish so did inshore. They ended up with 12 Sierras being caught in total. Not all of them were kept.

Second and last group fishing that day was Thomas and Jeff Benson fishing on RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus. These guys fished the Sea of Cortez and Jeff landed a nice 8 Ft 150 Lbs Striped Marlin which took him 25 min. A Striper!
Tom sent down the pictures of this Trophy fish for Jeff. Check them out.
Congratulations Jeff!

In the first picture you'll see Jeff all happy with his striper but it sure wore him out! Check out pic number 2 where Jeff is just relaxing after a long 25 min of hard work....or maybe it was the other way around, first relaxin and then catching the fish??? I have no idea, but you can go ahead and decide for yourselves. The thing is they caught fish!
