Another great day

Kirk and Sharon from Carmel, IN went out on our 28’ Tantrum with Captain Ramon. They fished point 95, twenty three miles from shore on the sea of Cortez and caught 5 Dorado weighing around thirty five pounds. They want to let their teenage boys back home that: “We had a great time. The fishing was awesome. Maybe we’ll let you join us next year. We have to come back for a Marlin. Miss you!!”

Bradley and Gina from Minnesota went out on our 28’ ReelRum with Captain Omar. They fished point 1150, fifteen miles from shore on the sea of Cortez. They caught 4 Dorado weighing around twenty five pounds, one weighed closer to forty five pounds.

Brandon and Kristina from Downers Grove, IL fished on our 32’ RedBeam with Captain Cesar. They fished Golden Gate on the Pacific side and caught a fifty pound Wahoo and well as 4 Dorado that weighed between twenty and thirty pounds and one Dorado at fifty pounds.

Ron and Mike from Fort Smith, Arizona went out on our 42’ partner boat with Captain Fiden. They caught 16 Dorado weighing between thirty five and forty pounds, six of which they released.

John and the Fishing film Crew are still not back. Last we hear they were fighting a fish, species unknown, for the last two hours up by Golden Gate. They're fishing on Nuevo with Alex and Manuel.

Love from Missouri


Love from Ryan and Hilary Leifheit from St Louis, Missouri who fished with Americo and Omar(pictured) on our 28' ReelRum on November 18th:


Just wanted to say thanks for a great day of fishing on the Reelrum with Amerigo and Omar on wendesday! We went out last year and caught 12 sriped marlin and a sailfish and I was worried we would have trouble topping that trip. This year we got a wahoo, five dorado, and a 304 pound, 10 foot 4 inch blue marlin that took two hours to land! I'll send a photo of that one.

Thank you for another sensational fishing experience. This year's trip included 3 generations as my father and son joined my brother and I.

We brought in 2 150 lb Marlins, 20 Dorados, 11 Tunas, a couple of Amberjacks, and most special of all a 120lb Sailfish. The Redrum crews worked hard to give us a special week. They even threw in kite fishing which none of us had seen first hand.

We got a couple of great fish pics that are attached.

Thnaks to all!
