September 6th Report

El Nuevo and Tantrum headed out today as the only 2 boats to fish for Redrum. They both had very good days fishing the close to shore up near Golden Gate.

Lois Friedman brought her family and friends down from the Washington area to fish with Alex on El Nuevo. They had a great (although hot!) time catching 4 Dorado as well as a monster Sailfish, the fish was a tad over 105" long!

Kirk Stradley, Rich Gough, and Samy Gough fished with Raymond and Tantrum today. Cesar is still being lazy - taking his one week vacation! He calls me everyday to see how well his boat did and is excited about comming back next week! Anyways, the boat continued her ways catching 4 Dorado, 2 Yellowfin Tuna, and a Sailfish! Great job guys and "pat-on-the-back" to the crew.

Off to watch some college football!

GO FROGS!!!

NFL kickoff tomorrow as well!

This may get me fired but... GO COWBOYS!!!

For the other 99.9% of the Redrum Team...GO PATS!!

September 5th Report- CCA meets El Nuevo!

Alex and Ramon were happy to fish with Whitney Thomas and her family. The group from the Coastal Conservation Association of Texas won a couple of days fishing with Alex and El Nuevo and started off on a great note today.

On their first day of fishing the group was able to land 3 nice Dorado and a Stripe Marlin that measured 107" weighing an estimated 180-190 pounds. Great way to start off your trip.

The Thomas' will head out again on Sunday to see if they can out-do day 1. Alex was up for the challenge!

Thank you to all the members of CCA for thier role in Coastal Conservation.

TGIF! Enjoy the weekend folks!

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.

September 2nd Report

This morning El Nuevo and Tantrum headed out to pick up from where they left off yesterday. Both of the boats did extremely well today just as they did yesterday.

Aaron Martens, Brent Chapman and Steve Van Nievwenhuyse headed out on El Nuevo with Alex and Slim. The guys are professional Bass fisherman and wanted to test their hand offshore for a change. They did very well catching and releasing a Stripe Marlin as well as 12 Dorado.

Raymond headed out on Tantrum once again. This time with Tammy Davis and her husband. They also did very well catching and releasing a big Sailfish and a Stripe Marlin. They tore it up on the Dorado as well, were able to catch 12 Dorado as well.

The Dorado bite is going off right past The Arch all the way up to Golden Gate. If you are interested in hooking in the Mahi give me a call and come our way!!!

Tight Lines.

September 1st Report

September is here and we started off the month with a bang!

Alex took Mr. Jeff Kilpatrick and his wife out for their 2nd day of fishing today. Mr. Kilpatrick opted to fish the Sea of Cortez side today as it was something he has never done before in his years of fishing Cabo. The bite was a little slow, a Blue Marlin struck the line, and a Sailfish hit happend early as well. They were able to catch and release a fairly large Sailfish before everything was said and done.

Javier had a great first day back from his one week vacation. He and Americo headed out on Rum Runnin and tore it up. Aaron Barthel and his friends from South Carolina did a great job catching heaps of Tuna and Dorado. They will have plenty for dinner tonight and than some!! Great job guy.

Ron Kilgarlin and his wife, Shawn did just as well on Utopia with Rene and Raymond. They were in and out of yellowfin and Dorado all day and had a very good time on the beautiful boat. They are going to try their hand again with Rene to see if they can land a nice billfish for Mrs. Kilgarlin! I will let you guys know how that goes on Wednesday!

Kyle Park and Lindsay Campbell headed out on Tantrum today with Omar and Jesus. Omar and Jesus hoped on Tantrum since Cesar took his day off today and Raymond was fishing on Utopia. The boat followed suit like the other boats today and caught 8 Dorado. Kyle was also able to catch and release a Sailfish. Good job guys.

3 boats heading out tomorrow. I will keep everyone posted!

Remember, comments are welcome!!

Fish Report August 30th

Slight overcast leads to great day of fishing for the Redrum Fleet!!

With dark clouds spread across the skies of Cabo we had some pretty weary clients in the morning during check in. This didn't stop our boys from fishing hard and getting into a mess of fish!

Alex and Juan had another great day with the Rutherford group today. The group landed a Sailfish early in the morning, sat through a light storm for a couple of hours, and managed to come back and land 3 Stripe Marlin and a 40+ pound Dorado. They were able to release all of the Marlin and kept the Dorado for dinner! You guys were quite the treat and are welcome back anytime!!! Hopefully sooner than later!

Dean Brown and his group headed out today on Red Beam and Rum Runnin and managed to catch heaps of Dorado again!

Cesar had a killer day with Larry Friesenhaun from Jourdanton, TX today on Tantrtum. Larry fished solo today and managed to catch a 96" Stripe Marlin, a 105" Sailfish and a 45 pound Dorado. He was very content with his day and as an owner of a 54' Viking himself, was very impressed with the way Cesar and Ramon fished. Great job Larry.

Jaqueline and Marc Dondero caught and released a Stripe Marlin. Omar and Jesus were also able to hook a Dorado for dinner.

Great job to everyone who fished with Redrum today!!

GO FROGS!!
