Today we had a bunch of boats head out, all in different directions it seemed, and with different fishing in mind.
Rum Runnin headed to Golden Gate and chased Marlin around. 3 catch and release Marlin and a Dorado for the Bastian crew and they were all smiles.
Red Beam with Marshall and Cali landed a Dorado and few small Tuna. Promising sign seeing a few Tuna being brought in. No information about there whereabouts is available at this time. We know where they are, and that's all that matters. (Just in case the other fleets are reading the report.)
Anzuelo headed out and the Henthorn party wanted nothing to do with Marlin. They were searching for Tuna and knew it could be a long day of "fishing," but stuck to their guns. Unfortunately, it did not pay off.
Omar and Americo on ReelRum stayed inshore and were able to get a few different fish from the Tuna family for their clients. No yellowfin, but a lot of fun for the Slater's.

More Marlin!
Another day of clear and sunny skies down in Cabo San Lucas. The marlin bite at Golden Gate is still very hot! The groups that headed out on the water today headed out that way and had some great fishing stories to tell.
Mike and Tami headed out again, this time with Javier and Manuel aboard RumRunnin. Their second day on the water with friends Heather and Patrick again. They were able to get 3 striped marlin to the boat. In the midst of it all, the pole broke and Manuel jimmy-rigged the line and pole to get the marlin on board. These guys were thoroughly impressed that the McGyver within Manuel didn't loose the marlin! Nice job. The topped off the day with one dorado for dinner. Tousignants and Halversons we hope to see you guys again soon. And don't forget to send in some pictures!
The second group out was the friendly bunch from Minnesota and Texas. Patrick, Diane and Charles headed out on ReelRum with the well-known crew Omar and Americo. They too headed up the Pacific side to Golden Gate where they got into some striped marlin as well. They reeled in 3 striped marlin, 1 mako shark and 1 dorado for dinner. They are headed out to Misiones de Kino, our favorite spot for them to cook it up with that coconut mango sauce or Israel's secret chilpalla sauce. yum yum. So good, that Ryan and I are going to head there for dinner tonight with some out of town friends. And with that, I hope all of you have a delicious meal as well!

Pobrecita Brookita!
Brooke's not feeling well today, over-worked and still cold from heading to Denver last week, things finally caught up with her. Sniffles and a sore throat, she's a trooper though, she'll be back and randy within a day or two. Just a little shout-out for the patient.
Jay Schmalenberg joined us today on the RedBeam. Jay brought his son and nephew out on the water for the day and they did great. The boys proved to be luckier than Jay however, each bringing in a Marlin while Jay lost 2 others that were hooked up. They also hooked up a nice Dorado for dinner.
Jack Tramuta hopped off the cruise ship at noon and jumped right onto ReelRum with Americo and Ramon. Without the necessary time to run all the way to Golden Gate, the boys fished about 4 miles off the point and had great success. Jack had always wanted to catch a Marlin and has been trying unsuccessfully for years. 30 minutes into his charter with RedRum and he was hooked up. He also brought in 3 Dorado shortly thereafter. Unfortunately for Jack (but very fortunately for the staff here at RedRum) you are not allowed to take fish back onto the cruise ship. Jack, I shall toast to you this evening, thanks for the Dorado filets.
Finally, we had the Anders party out for their final day of fishing with Javier and Manuel on Rum Runnin. While they were looking for a few more Marlin and something for dinner, it looks like cheeseburgers again. They caught and released 1 Marlin and another died during the battle, having been foul-hooked. Javier and Manuel assured the clients they would be happy to have the Marlin for dinner, so it surely did not go to waste.
Another great day.
Get well soon Brookita,
Ryan

January 31st and Feb 1st
Robert Fazio along with family and friends, Robert, James, David and Larry had a great day on the water heading out on RumRunnin to Golden Gate. They were great sports in the morning to understand having to move them from El Nuevo to RumRumrunnin due to some engine overhauling on El Nuevo. With 5 guys on board and 5 marlin brought in a can't imagine a better day on the water.
Heading out on the 1st of Feb, were 2 fun couples Patrick & Heather along with Mike & Tami. Hailing from Greenbay, I imagine they timed their vacation right to be out of the chilly weather of Wisconsin. They headed out on ReelRum with Omar and Americo and had a phenomenal day on the water. They reeled in 4 marlin and even bought themsleves a mount. Mike wrestled with a mako shark for a bit before it got away and on their way back in they did some inshore fishing where they tackled a roosterfish as well as a king mackerel. Very nice work guys. Tami and Mike, we look forward to seeing you guys on Tuesday for another bang up day on the water. Don't forget to send in your pics to our email and we'll upload them on the website!
Also heading out on the 1st was the Anders group from Tejas, taking thier winter vacation at RedRum's Stay & Play condos located at Portofino. With 3 couples in the condos they are having a fun stay so far with another day of fishing to come tomorrow. They went out on RumRunnin and headed to Golden Gate to reel in 3 nice sized striped marlin. They will also have a mounted trophy for their wall. We'll see you guys tomorrow for another day on the water!
Until tomorrow... tight lines.

January 30th
Today was another crazy day out at the Gate.
My good friend John Steen from Houston was here with his girlfriends family. John and Robert caught really nice Striped Marlin. John one upped his buddy Robert with a 200lb bruiser. Apparently John hasn't been working out lately, as it took him over an hour to bring the fish to the boat. Almost respectable. Very nice fish indeed though. Hope to see you guys back in Cabo soon.
On ReelRum was the Hutton party. The two couples were all excited after the day of fishing in which each of the guys was able to catch and release a Marlin. They were heading back to the Riu to catch a shower and drink after a great day on the water.

Cecilia, your breaking my heart....
Today we had our good friend Cecelia, along with 4 of her girlfriends, from Montana fishing with us. They only wanted to fish for a few hours, but they got lucky with a few Dorado and real nice Roosterfish that the girls hooked themselves! We met Cecilia a few years ago at Rips Bar and she has been back each year, always ready for another great adventure with RedRum. One of these days we will get to her neck of the woods for the Elk Hunt she has promised us.
On ReelRum, we had Harold from Pennsylvania, along with the Biro crew from Kansas had a great day on ReelRum with Ramon and Americo. They saw and hooked a bunch of marlin and were able to catch and release 2 of them.
Sorry no tales of strippers today...
Until tomorrow.

January 28th -- More Stripers!
Now I should start by saying that, yes I'm new to writing the fish report and although I won the spelling bee in 3rd grade, I tend to misspell a number of words from time to time.
As was brought to my attention yesterday, by our dear friend Louie, I've been calling what has been caught on our boats, strippers. Now this is where I pause, clearly all of you must have been getting a chuckle because we don't catch strippers in Cabo unless you are at Mermaid's or Lord Black, am I right? Based on my reports did some of you mistakenly imagine that by fishing with RedRum, magically a pole dancer would appear at the end of your rod? No pun intended. Sorry for the high hopes guys. I'm sure some of you have noticed this, but haven't said anything, thanks for being polite. So my apologies, we haven't been catching strippers, we've been catching stripers, meaning striped marlin. Which brings me to today...
Again heading out to Golden Gate is Andy and his lovely wife aboard ReelRum with Omar and Americo. The midwestern pair got out of the cold of Illinois and came down to Cabo for some nice weather. The 3 striped marlin they reeled in put up a fight.
The second crew that headed out was Diane and Chuck with Javier on RumRunnin. They too hit Golden Gate and had some success with the stipers. Reeling in 3 total it has been a wonderful vacation after purchasing a time share over at Villa Del Arco. We look forward to seeing you guys from years to come!
Signing out... Brooke
Long live stripers!
