Mucho Tuna y Marlin Grande

Teri and Jerry Silva, their two teenage sons Jon and Jerry and their friend Robert from California fished on our 32’ RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Manuel. They had a great day on the water catching 9 Tuna and a hundred and thirty pound striped Marlin. They spent their time on the sea of Cortez where the water reached eighty five degrees nd used lures for the Tuna and live bait for the Marlin. They’ll be taking home lots of Tuna and are going to have their Marlin mounted.

Robert, Chad, Brandon, Jordan, Chase and George from Austin, Texas went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Juan. They used lures to catch 3 twenty pound Tuna on the sea of Cortez and also seemed to catch quite a buzz with plenty of beer leftover. Fish and fun mix well at RedRum.

Marlin pics from July 9th

We love when we get photos from our Anglers! Here are a couple of photos from Lance Robbins who fished with friends on our 33' El Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Ramon on July 9th. "I want to say thanks for the great time we had last week ... That was the freshest, most delicious fish we have ever eaten. Everyone had fun, and you will be the first people we call for fishing when wecome back. Here are couple of pics of the Marlin I reeled in. Maybe you guys can use it on your website or something. Once again, thanks for thegreat experience in Cabo."-Lance

2 Sails and 2 Marlin

Brian, Chad and Mike went out for their third time this week, this time on our 32' RedBeam with Captain Marcial and Mate Fabian. Yesterday they brought in quite a few Tuna and today they fought, caught and released 2 Marlin and a Sail.

Blake and five of his friends went out on our 32' RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Manuel. They strolled in a bit later than usual, about six hours later (noon), but I don't ask questions. Beer in hand we got them on the water and they caught and released a Sail.

July 16th Fish Report

Brian, Anna, Chad and Mike went out for the second time this week on our 32’ RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Manuel. They came onto 10 Tuna on the sea of Cortez, a few of which they’ll be enjoying for dinner tonight.

Peter and Eileen went out on our 28’ ReelRum with Captain Omar and Mate Americo. About 15-20 miles offshore from the Cabo San Lucas Marina, Peter and Eileen caught and released 2 Marlin using a combination of live bait and lures. Both Marlins weighed between 100 and 120 pounds. Water temperature was at 81-83 degrees.

Lenus, Sharon, Lauren, Clay and Andre from Houston, Spring and Katy, Texas went out on our 33’ El Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Ramon. They heard about us through their local CCA chapter and purchased a Play and Stay package through which we provide accommodation and fishing. Today was day #1 for fishing and Alex got them onto 5 Tuna, a Sailfish and 3 Jacks on the Pacific side where water temperature was at 80 degrees. They used lures for the Tuna and live bait for the Sailfish. Clay has been Marlin fishing in the Bahamas but it was everyone’s first time in Cabo. When I asked him how both places compared, Clay said of our company: “It’s the best darn fishing in Cabo.”

Here are pictures of the proud Texans.

Wednesday update...

Tons of boats coming back today with no flags flying (non-redrum boats of course.) I won't point fingers or name names, but a lot of the boats on Dock A had a hard time finding the fish. RedRum boys however, had a good day on the water today. While it was somewhat slow out there, we got all our clients on fish. Most of the fishing was done on the Sea of Cortez a few miles out from the 95 bank.

The first boat back was the half-day share of Brad and Mike Hodge and Steve Milner and Lorna Contreras. Steve had been looking for a share for the past few weeks and we couldn't seem to find him one. As luck would have it, they shared a taxi down to the Marina from their resort with Brad and Mike who were coming down to the Marina looking to get on board with someone. Captain Tata was at the helm and as luck would have it, he hooked into the first BLUE MARLIN of the season for RedRum. Mike Powell had a 400lber last week on the Missing Lenk, however it wasn't with our clients, so we can't count that one. After 45 minutes, this bruiser of a Blue, estimated at over 200lbs snapped the line and swam away. Oh well, at least we know they are out there. Steve and Lorna were up next and they caught a nice Dorado in the 40lb class.

Wid and Joe were back for day two of their fishing trip and today they headed out with Captain Alex aboard El Nuevo RedRum. They once again didn't get into any Tuna of astonishing size, but they did bring 2 Yellowfin to the boat.

David Welch, Amado Maschmeyer, Keaton, Stratton and Smith Day, all headed out with Javier on Rum Runnin. While things were looking grim most of the day, a late Marlin strike made it all worth while. They saw a small bachelor school of 3 Stripey's on the surface and before they knew what was going on, the crew had hooked one of them. The Striped Marlin fought like hell, giving each person on the boat a chance to feel it's power. The guys estimated the fish at 160lbs.

Finally, we had Dustin Daniels and his wife with us today from North Carolina. They joined Captain Omar and Americo aboard ReelRum and brought in a Sailfish and 2 Yellowfin Tuna.

Great day for the RedRum Crew!

Diana is back tomorrow after being out for three weeks with a Broken Jaw. Welcome back Diana, we missed you. Ryan will be taking a much needed day off!
