We don't have any boats going out today on this beautiful Sunday in Cabo, which means no fish report. But for all you faithful daily readers here is a picture of our buddy Joe Assenza and the nice Cabrilla he reeled in last week on March 22nd.
For those of you that haven't sent your photos in.... we're waiting.
Happy Sunday Folks!

6 MARLIN
Some took a look at the weather this morning and decided to stay in bed to sleep off the hangover; but the cold chill didn’t scare off our group from Ontario. The result? SIX MARLIN! Omar and Americo took the guys out an hour and a half from shore and led them right to the spot. Within ten minutes, two Marlin were hooked and that’s how it went the rest of the day. Poor guys barely got a chance to get to the beers. No worries, they’ll have plenty of time to celebrate their catch (and release) at their all-inclusive resort.
Detailed count:
Peter – 1 black and 1 striped
Rick – 2 striped
Red – 1 striped
Billy – the winner of the day, a 160 pound striped Marlin
Highlight (um, besides the Marlin): Captain Omar’s incredible ability to throw a mackerel right into the mouth of the Marlin. Had to be RedRum…
Enjoy the weekend!

Dorado, Mako and even Marlin!
It’s sunny once again in Cabo at 79 degrees on land and 72-73 degrees Fahrenheit in the water. A bit windy on land (15 mph coming from SSE) and even windier on the water, a few of our new friends came back looking a little soaked. Almost made senator Steve miss the weather back home: the perfect cold drizzle of Washington D.C. Steve along with eight of his buddies were out on 33’ El Nuevo and 32’ RedBeam and scored 3 Dorado. Of course they had to come back to pick up some RedRum merchandise to show off their skills. Even for 8 guys 3 Dorado can be a bit much to finish for dinner and so they kindly made a donation to our crew. Thanks guys!
Picking a fight with a Mako shark and successfully reeling in 2 Marlin was Mike and his two daughters. Mike was mostly chaperoning for the day, helping his girls reel in the big ones. Omar and Americo took the family out on our 28’ ReelRum heading east to the sea of Cortez. The action started 33 miles out, a nice hour and a half to work on the suntan and gaze at the leaping whales still gracing our waters. At seven and twelve years old, there’s no doubt that Claire and Anna will grow up to be tough fisherwomen.
Some couples find romance in Cabo at a quiet beach while others like Tom and Caitlyn McCoy and Forest and Amy Glaser headed to the choppy waters of Baja. There’s nothing more romantic than reeling in your own dinner to these couples. Reaching Gordo banks at about 10am on our 32’ RumRunning, Javier and Manuel knew right where to catch the Dorado. And of course, the girls had to show their boys how it’s done.
Just to show that a little wind doesn’t scare our fleet!
Hasta mañana,

Windy and Warm
April 2nd, 2009
Cabo San Lucas is experiencing some beautiful clear skies and sunny weather at 79 degrees with some whipping winds coming in from the south at 12 mph. The RedRum boats are still heading out to the Sea of Cortez near the 1150 bank and Punta Gorda bank.
The first boat back was RumRunnin with Javier and Cesar as the mate today. The crew on board is one of my dearest friends down here in Cabo, Cindy McIntosh who just celebrated her 40th birthday! Her husband flew in some of her family and friends from Windsor and Penticton, Canada as a surprise so they joined her on board. Stan the Man, friend Lea, brother Darin and friend Gig. They headed out far about 25 miles to the 1150 bank as well as outside of Punta Gorda, which is where they encountered their action for the day. Cindy fought the 45-50 lb Dorado that was reeled in by a green and black lure. They had 8 huge filets to take with them that they are going to cook up and enjoy this evening! So proud of you, Cindy I’ll expect to see the pictures in my inbox soon.
Finally coming back at about 3:45 is ReelRum with Omar and Americo. The cute couple Rob and Violet from Pennsylvania headed out far on the Sea of Cortez. They had their heart set on catching marlin. Although we gave them a fair warning about going out that far could mean not catching anything at all, they wanted to go for it anyway, so 33 miles they went. However, this is one of the days where the odds were in their favor. All caught on live bait, they reeled in a nice sized Dorado, 5 Mako Sharks all catch and release and they almost got their 150 lb. striped marlin aboard, but lost it right at the boat. It was Miss. Violet that did the reeling on that monster. Congrats guys, that is a hell of a day out there.
Until tomorrow…

Windy day today in Cabo...
Wind was blowing good and strong all day, making for a bumpy day on the water. But, as is usually the case, the fish didn't know the difference. We sent out 4 boats today, and when the boys got back this afternoon it looked like they all spread out a bit today. Alex headed North, Omar West, Javier South and Marshall went East. All the guys were successful and brought back happy clients.
Omar and Americo on ReelRum played host to Ron Milford and his son John. They headed out about 20 miles west in search of the warm water and calmer seas. After a bumpy ride out, they were soon on the fish. When it was said and done, Ron and John had two Trophy Striped Marlin. Ron's was a real bruiser measuring 107 inches and Omar estimated the weight at 230lbs. That has to be the biggest Stripe of the season. Congrats guys!
John and Sandra Maltry, long time RedRum clients had their boys out there with them today and they wanted to keep the action going to keep the boys entertained. They trolled north from the Lighthouse all the way to Los Arcos looking for the Yellowtail we found yesterday, to no avail (Yellowtail wise.) They were able to bring in a couple of Sierra and a nice AmberJack for the boys before heading a bit offshore. Once they got offshore they hooked up to Dorado two different times, but couldn't get them in the boat. Sounds like the boys still had a good day. Hope to see you back in Cabo soon.
Chad and Sarah from Austin, Texas were next and even though they came in to Horned Frog country wearing University of Texas gear we still did our best to get them on fish. Marshall was able to hook two nice Dorado for them and while they spotted 4 or 5 Marlin, they couldn't get them to bite. Nice meeting you folks.
Finally we had the Hopkin crew on Rum Runnnin. Javier and Manuel continued their hot streak and brought the Hopkins to where the fish were. They had a great day bringing in 2 nice Striped Marlin for release and bringing a Dorado on board. Enjoy those Dorado filets guys.
Hasta Manana
