Heeeello Peeps!
Another month goes by and we are welcoming October with huge success. Today is the last day of September 2010 and fishing was excellent this whole month. I am still waiting for the boats to come back today and see what they caught but just so you have an idea we did a total of 10 blue Marlin, 74 Striped Marlin, 10 Sailfish, 21 Tuna (a bit slow I know), 400 Dorado, 3 Wahoo, 1 Roosterfish and 4 Mako Sharks... This was all thanks to you guys who made this number possible. Thank you so much!
Yesterday we had 5 boats out:
For a second day of fishing we had Steve and Marcella Ramsey fishing on RumRunnin again..you might remember their names from Sunday's fish report as they had reeled in 20 Dorados! well yesterday wasn't bad either. They reeled in 4 Dorado, one 120 Lbs Striped Marlin and one 250Lbs Blue Marlin! Excellent job!
Josh Watson and his crew from CCA joined us for their second and last fishing trip and after their full day of fishing aboard the 33' Cabo Chica, they managed to Catch and Release a 200 Lb Sailfish and 1 Striped Marlin. They also caught 9 Dorado. Well done you guys.
A total of 10 Dorado was caught by Laurie Hempstead and Michael Quinn. Laurie said it was a lot of fun. The biggest dorado they caught was 30 Lbs. They fished on Tantrum with Captain Ramon and Mate Jesus. Hopefully we will see them again real soon.
Another CCA member Brian Brumfield, who had fished with us a few months ago decided to go again on the 33' Nuevo. Him and his crew did great work out there with Captain Alex and mate Manuel. They managed to reel in Dorado, one Sailfish that was 130 Lbs and 1 Marlin which was between 140-150 Lbs. It was an excellent day for them and we are glad they enjoyed it. Brian gave his fish away to Charity and we really appreciate that. This fish will go to the Children's Foundation here in Cabo.
Last but not least Rod Tavares and Barry fished on ReelRum with Captain Jesus and Mate Edgar. These guys were supposed to be out there for 8 hours but by noon they were back in the office. Not because they were seasick but because they decided to call it a day once they had reeled in 1 Striped Marlin (C/R), 8 Dorado and 1 blue Marlin that was 10ft 250 Lbs. The latter was reeled in by Rod and it took him almost an hour to reel it in. He was excited about the trip and experience. They told me they had 2 Blue Marlin bite at the same time, but one of them got away...Sorry guys, I guess it'll be next time.
Thank you All for Reading.

Dorado bite still strong
Another beautiful late summer/early fall day here in Cabo San Lucas, water temps are in the mid-80's and weather is in the low 90's. Seas were smooth and fish were biting once again today! Bait has been tough to come by recently, but luckily we have had some Ballyhoo sent over from mainland Mexico, so while other companies are struggling to find bait each day, we have had a steady supply. The boys have been fishing the Pacific from the Lighthouse to Los Arcos and even up to Golden Gate.
Antonio and Dania Sandoval, joining us from Ukiah, California had never been fishing offshore before, but knew that being in Cabo, they had to give it a shot. Antonio and Dania spent the day with Omar and Americo and decided on a 1/2 day charter. Luckily, half a day was plenty of time to get some action as they had 5 Dorado by 11:30am. The Dorado we have seen caught the last few days have been on the bigger side, as was the case today with two of the Dorado reaching almost 50".
The Zischke party, who were to have fished on Rum Runnin', didn't make it this morning. Hope that everything is OK and they just had a few too many at Cabo Wabo the night before.
Brian Braumfield and Darlene Bonis fished today with their friends Bob and Denise Stine. Brian and Darlene fished with us last year and were back this year to try out the Stay and Play package. They gushed about how cool the accomodations are up at Portofino, so that is always nice to hear. Nick and I certainly had a "case of the Monday's" yesterday and things started off early. El Nuevo had problems with a transmission before their charter even got started but Brian is a veteran fisherman and we have to thank him for his understanding. We got the group out with Cabo Chica, and they ended up having a great day on the water. Time and time again, when people go with the flow, Karma ends up on their side and this crew was no different. They came back with plenty of Dorado and nothing but praise for our staff and how we handled the situation. Thanks again for your understanding guys, unfortunately, boat problems are the nature of the beast sometimes.

Cathing (up)
Sunday was a great day for RedRum anglers, calm sea's and beautiful weather made for a nice day on the water. Ridiculous amounts of fish biting also made for a nice day on the water. I think most hardcore anglers would trade fish for weather, up until a certain point, Sunday we didn't have to sacrifice either.
Steve Ramsey and his wife Marcella, from Scottsdale, Arizona had an awesome day with the Dorado. The guys on Rum Runnin' found something floating in the water and as is usually the case, that meant Dorado! Lots and lots of Dorado. Steve came back in the office at the end of the day and said "I lost count around 19 or 20." Steve and Marcella harvested only a few fish, releasing the rest, as they just wanted enough for dinner. We'll see the Ramsey's again on the 29th and we'll see if we can't get them hooked into a Billfish.
Kevin Messmer and his crew from Colorado Springs were out for their second day on the water today and they also got into the Dorado pretty good. After Dorado and Marlin on day 1, Kevin, his crew and the boys on El Nuevo RedRum caught 14 Dorado.
Finally, on Pescado III, we had Gustavo Bassino and his buddies all the way from Argentina. Gustavo and his buddies won the mixed bag award for the day with a catch and release Striped Marlin, 4 Dorado and 1 Wahoo. The guys had a blast on the boat and certainly enjoyed the great bite.

'...THE BEST FISHING TRIP I'VE EVER DONE"
Hey people,
Today was an excellent day, customers came back very excited about their fishing trip. Ralph Horton had fished with us yesterday and decided to give it a second try today his after coming back from his fishing trip on Nuevo he said this was " The best fishing trip I've ever done" Kelly, lovely wife, compared this trip to Cancun and emphasized that Ralph had picked the right company! He's sure to come back next year.
We will be seeing more excellent reviews over Trip Advisor from all these happy fishermen!
On with today's fishing report. We had 4 boats out 3 full day and 1 half day. The seas were 4 ft, winds blowing at 9 mph, water temp was 86F and the weather temp was 92F. Perfect day for fishing!
On Tantrum we had Rusty and Cody Willey fishing for a full day with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan. This father-son trip had been planned for quite a while and they booked a few months in advanced. Their fishing took place 27 miles out by the Jaime Bank, their catch consisted of one 110Lbs Striped Marlin, six 10-15 Lbs Tunas and fifteen 45Lbs Dorados!! Wow these duo sure put in a lot of effort to catch all that! They decided not to keep any fish and it was all caught and released. Thank you guys so much for fishing with us.
Ralph Horton decided to go solo today on our 33' Nuevo with Captain Jesus and Mate Manuel. He had fished yesterdat on RumRunnin and decided to go for a second trip today. Ralph is a serious professional fisherman and he knew what he was after. He had an awesome day fishing with these guys and promised to come back next year for more action.
He caught a total of 2 Striped Marlin, 5 Dorado and lost 2 Blue Marlin one of them was over 300Lbs! while trying to reel them in, they broke the rod!!!!!!! Imagine the size and the speed! Thank you so much Ralph and Kelly for these days you decided to fish with us, we can't thank you enough for everything. Hope to see you next year.
on RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus we had Pete Kramer and his crew who also fished for a full day. Their fishing spots were the Jaime Bank and the Migrino Bank. These guys fished for a few hours before reeling in thier first Dorado. Their final number is 6 Dorado between 15-25 Lbs.
And last but not least Ladonna Lewis, Doug Lewis, Jason, David and Greg went out fishing for half a day on our 31' RedRum...after their trip was over these folks had a total of 9 Dorado between 30-35 Lbs and 2 Bonitas...not the time of year for Bonitas but they caught them anyways! This cheerful group came back to the office to talk about their awesome fishing trip and how much they enjoyed it. The best part while they were in the office telling me their story was the fact that they were making fun of one of their guys for having a pink camera....(very manly LOL) and when I saw them all cheer with a bottle of Pacifico to finish off their day. So glad they decided to fish with us and hopefully we will see them again in the near future.
Thanks for reading and have a fun and safe weekend.

The only thing Georgette did to cabo was make fish bite!
Morning Guys,
There hasn't been much to report over the past days, yesterday was a slow day becuase of the thunderstorm that hit Cabo, nothing bad just a rain through out most of the day, no damage or anything. Today we have one boat out, newly wed Steve Springer and wife Kim Newman are out fishing on RumRunnin with captain Javier and Mate Jesus. The couple decided to go fishing with Chris Hopper and Charles Boatwright for a half day. Their final catch for the day was 12 Dorado and 1 Striped Marlin (C/R). They took some fish for lunch at the Hacienda Cantina and will be coming back this afternoon to pick up the rest. Hope they enjoy their meal.
We're expecting some showers for the rest of the week but then again, sometimes the weather forecast seems to make mistakes. Anyhow, we will let you know if need be.
Here are some pictures that Laurie Turney sent, she fished on Saturday aboard 31' RedRum with Captain Omar and Mate Americo. This trip was a birthday gift to Hubby Brant who turned ?????...I am not sure if I should say the age or not...I probably won't, and let Laurie post it as a comment if she thinks proper. I do know the age because Laurie whispered it while being escorted to the boat this nice couple was going to be on that day. Their fishing trip ended with 4 Dorados and 3 Marlin (All billfish were caught and released)
Thanks Laurie for the pics and we hope to see you again "reel" soon.
Thanks!

A Cloudy Monday...
It's a cloudy some what sprinkly day in Los Cabos today. Cabo San Lucas hasn't seen much sunshine today but it makes for a really nice break from the heat! It even sprinkled a bit this morning when I had an errand to run out in San Jose del Cabo.
The wonderful group staying in Portofino this week from Texas went out on their second day with Alex and Jesus on El Nuevo. To get the bite they had to go out pretty far up near Jamie Bank and even beyond. This group wanted Marlin & Tuna more than anything, which the guys found, but couldn't make them eat. The Tuna were out there boiling at Jamie Bank but couldn't get them to bite with numerous attempts using live bait, lures y nada. However they did have much success with 6 15-20 pound Dorado near the shore of Los Arcos that they're excited to bring back to Tejas with them!
RumRunnin also took off today with our good friends Joe & Karen Assenza along with their friends who are first timers to Cabo. Their situation was much the same, a long stretch before they got their first bite after 12 o'clock. Joe, who fishes with us quite often said, "Wow that was the longest I've had to wait to get a bite!" It was worth the wait. Karen reeled in a nice size Mako Shark that took off right at the side of the boat. And they were able to reel in 4 Dorado which we will be enjoying with them at dinner!
Great day on the water everyone!
Thanks for reading.
