Monday/Tuesday Report
How should you celebrate your 70th birthday? Come down to Cabo and fish with your best friends! Pete, his son and two of his friends checked into the Portofino condos on Sunday and were ready to party. They arrived holding Corona’s and made sure we remembered to pick up their Coors. They went fishing with us for their first day this week on Monday aboard our 28’ ReelRum. Pete caught his first 2 Marlin ever with the help of Captain Omar and mate Americo. The first marlin measured 112” and weighed 180 pounds and the second came in at 96” and 140 pounds, both catch and release. They also caught 2 Dorado which they enjoyed for dinner at our favorite restaurant Misiones de Kino along with their tasty house Margaritas.
Out on our 33’ El Nuevo, Troy and five of his friends caught 2 Dorado which they also enjoyed for dinner at Misiones de Kino.
On Nuevo today we had the McClure clan from Co. – they headed out to the 95 spot looking for some dinner for tonight, they landed a nice 35 lb. Dorado that should feed the five of them. They saw a lot of marlin but they just did not want to bite.
Reel rum had our friend Pete, Ken, Joe and Jim onboard for there second day, no luck today, again, they saw a lot of marlin just did not want to bite.
The Red Beam had our friends Jack and Cheryl on a share with Todd Miz and his dad. They too saw lots of marlin, no bite so they headed in shore and got two yellowtail in the 20 pound range and one rooster about 30 lbs.

Yellowtail, Sierra...and soon to be calamari
Martin went out on our 28’ ReelRum today with Captain Omar and mate Americo. They headed west on the Pacific side and caught 4 Sierra and 4 Yellowtail. The Sierra weighed around 8 pounds and the Yellowtail, 12 pounds. Fish were caught roughly a half mile from the shoreline where the water was 68 degrees.
John, “El Jefe”, went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with friends including Alonso and Ismael, best waiters at delicious Misiones de Kino, as well as Carlos, a highly-regarded and good to know, local police officer. All three were fishing for their very first time! Also trolling on the Pacific side by the lighthouse, about 200m from the shoreline, they caught a 3 ft Sierra, a 4 ft squid and a 200 pound Sunfish (catch and release) using Rapalla lures.
A slow day on the water but tons of fun.

They headed out on the sea of Cortez where the water temperature was at 73 degrees and caught and released 5 Roosterfish and 1 Jack using live bait. Both Roosters weighed ten to fifteen pound.
Jack and Cheryl went out for their second time this week as well but this time on our 32’ RumRunnin with Javier and Manuel. They decided to focus on inshore fishing today and headed out on the Pacific side where the water was at 61 degrees. Using black and green Rappala lures, Jack and Cheryl caught 8 Yellowtail between ten to twenty pounds about a third of a mile from the shoreline.

TUESDAY MAY 19th
Steve and Judy from New Jersey went out on our 28’ ReelRum with Omar and Americo and caught their first Marlin ever. The Stivaly’s have mostly fished in the East Coast and were excited to have caught and released 2 Marlin and a Yellowtail that they enjoyed for dinner at Missiones de Kino. The first Marlin came in as 101 inches and the second at 106 inches. Judy got a blister from the fight but said it was well worth it.
Out on our 32’ Beam were Jack and Cheryl from California and our friend Matt that lives in Cabo. Matt took some time between spinning at local Buddha lounge to fish with us for his first time ever and got plenty on action out on the water. Jack and Cheryl are down for two weeks and will be fishing with us several days. With the help of Marcial and Fabian, the new friends caught and released 3 Marlin in the 140-180 pound range and a Dorado for dinner. Matt learned that sunblock is essential when fishing in Cabo San Lucas in May.
The Montvilles went out with Javier and Manuel on our 32’ RumRunnin. Heading out on the sea of Cortez they caught and released 4 Marlin.

Brian and friends went out on our 32’ RumRunnin and caught and released 1 Marlin with the help of Captain Javier and mate Manuel.
THURSDAY MAY 21st
Anthony and Dawn from fished on our 28’ ReelRum with Captain Omar and mate Americo. They went looking for Marlin as Anthony has had lots of experience catching sails and Dorado in Florida where they live. There were no bananas on board and a nine foot Marlin they caught. There were plenty of others jumping by the boat, teasing poor Anthony but he’s back for more today and we’re cheering him on.
It’s always great when anglers arrive with a sense of humor in the early morning and the McDivitt’s had plenty. Vacationing with their two teenage daughters and their boyfriends, the McDivitt’s went out on our 32’ Rum Runnin with Javier and Manuel. They caught 4 Yellowtail which they enjoyed for dinner at Misiones de Kino.
Return trip w us, looking forward to seeing them again next year
Jim and friends went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Alex and Fabian and had a great time. They caught and released 1 Marlin and enjoyed the performances of the sea life that they don’t get back home in Colorado. We hope to see you again next year guys!
