Hey there,

Today we had a better day. We had 2 boats out and this is how they did:

On Tantrum we had Chris Cook and Ashley McLean fishing with Captain Ramon and Mate Jesus. They had a great day out in the water and caught a total of 7 Dorado. Great job guys.

180 Lbs Striped Marlin.

Hey there Guys,
Christmas is just 2 weeks away, have you gotten all your shopping ready?????? I still need to buy a few more things before I can actually say I'm done, but I honestly ran out of ideas, so if you can send some over I would really appreciate them!!! haha

Anyways, fishing today was good, we had 3 boats out but only 2 were lucky enough to catch something.

On tantrum we had Nathan Bailey fishing with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan for the second day. During their first trip they caught 4 Yellowfin tuna around 20-25 Lbs. Today their luck increased reeling in 4 Dorado and catching and releasing a 180 Lbs Striped Marlin. Let's see how they do tomorrow, only one more Marlin and they are all set!!! Think we can make it happen?? I do. The marlin was c/r in 30 mins. Nice job!!!

On ReelRum we had Brandon Wilhelm, Joseph Moore and Keith Moore fishing with Captain Edgar and Mate Omar. They started off a bit slow but had their first bite around 11:00 AM ending their trip with 5 Dorado between 15-20 Lbs. They were planning on having a nice dinner tonight and saving up the rest. Enjoy your meal guys!

Thanks for Reading.

Monday-Windy on the Marina, and Windy on the Water

While yesterday's breezy conditions on the Marina didn't effect the fishing, today the clients said it was a little bit more rough out on the water. No one came back early and I didn't hear of anyone feeding the fish, but the swells were a bit bigger today.

Ben and Christine Kraft, down from Alaska, joined us for a day on the water aboard El Nuevo RedRum. Chasing Marlin and Dorado is a bit different than Salmon and Halibut fishing, and they had a blast doing so. They each caught a Marlin and also caught a small Dorado for dinner.

Jason and Shelle Feldner, down from North Dakota, joined us aboard RedRum today. Jason guides fishing and hunting trips in the Dakota's, they just don't get too many Marlin up that way. Luckily, we were able to hook them up to one, which they caught and released and they also got into a nice school of Yellowfin. They ended up with 8 nice Tuna, some into the 50lb range.

Jeffrey Kaser and his crew have fished with us for years now, but today was not the lucky day. He fished with Javier and Ramon on Rum Runnin', and they pitched bait to countless Marlin (Javier said 10, Ramon said 12) but couldn't get bit. Jeff is back out on the water Wednesday, better luck then.

Sunday- Windy on the Marina, Nice on the Water...

The wind was howling today on the Marina, so I was expecting a few boats back early with sea sick customers. Not the case, everyone was back around 2:30-3:000pm with flags flying and big smiles. Apparently, out on the Pacific the water was smooth, just a random Southeast wind we were getting hammered by in the marina.

That being said, I am glad everyone was able to enjoy a nice day on the water. Eddie Dodds and the Deleware crew were back at it again today with Jesus and Manuel on El Nuevo RedRum and they headed out from the lighthouse and got into some Yellowfin Tuna. Eddie said, "We could have caught them all day, but wanted to head out and look for some Marlin." They never got that Marlin, but ended the day with 6 Yellowfin Tuna.

Robert Ross and Kindra Powers, down from Hopedale, Massachusetts, are back visiting us again for the 3rd or 4th time I believe. Robert always brings a 1 pound bag of Dunkin Donuts Coffee for me, and so far it's been good luck for him. Today they threw bait at tons of Marlin, but ended the day with 2 Dorado.

Dan Weisensel and Tracee were back at it for day 2, and after 3 Marlin and 1 Dorado on day 1, they finished up with 1 more Marlin today to top off a great trip to Cabo!

Awesome Saturday.

Fished started to pick up today really good. We caught and released a Blue Marlin that was about 160 Lbs, we got Dan his first Marlin ever! and the seas were smooth.

After a long week and fish bites being a bit slow, we ended this last weekend of November with good numbers. Fishing took place by the lighthouse, winds were blowing very gently and seas were 2 ft while the sun was shinning at 80F...perfect day huh?

Even though Tuna is still no where around, we caught a blue Marlin which weighed 160 Lbs. Long time customer Matthew Bunnn and Heather Beaulieu from Washington fished with RedRum for the 4th time I think and their day was excellent. They fished on ReelRum with Captain Edgar and Mate Alonso. Their final number was 2 Marlin (one Blue and 1 Striped) and a decent size dorado which they kept for tomorrow's dinner. The striped Marlin was 100 lbs.

The CCA Hayes/Lambert party fished for two days while enjoying their stay at one of RedRum's Portofino Condo. Their first fishing trip with RedRum consisted of 4 Dorado, 2 Wahoos (The biggest one being 55 Lbs) and 1 Striped Marlin. First day was rough out there, I guess the weather channel did not foresee the real height of the seas for that day, which made me look bad, but all ended well...just a couple of seasickness but not that bad. Today was completely different. They caught and released 1 Marlin and a Wahoo while enjoying the awesome view of the ocean!

Dan Carhart fished on RumRunnin today alongside his wife Mary Ellen. Dan walked in the office yesterday asking for a charter and after being a bit hesitant to book the boat he finally decided to do it. He told me that he was going after Marlin Specifically, it's what he's always wanted but hadn't been that lucky. He even said he was an unlucky guy when it came to fishing....but that curse was broken with RedRum. He caught his first Striped Marlin by 8 AM just an hour after he took off and it was a 104" Stiper weighing a total of 140 Lbs! What a great size! Dan came back early and was very pleased with the trip. I knew something had gone great when I saw him walk in with that big smile off his face. It was something awesome. I'm glad you did it Dan. Congrats!!!!

Ryan Donovan and his peeps decided to go out on tantrum with Captain Alonso and mate Juan. They fished for a full day and came back with 2 nice Striped Marlin weighing 100 and 120 Lbs respectively.

Enjoy your weekend and be safe.

Come out, come out where ever you are!

Hi Guys,

There isn't much to report today. Even though the seas were a bit more calm than yesterday it seems like the fish decided not to come out and play.

We fished buy the Palmilla Area as well as Punta Gorda.

Our total number of fish caught was 2 Dorado and 3 Striped Marlin (c/r) the biggest weighed 180Lbs and it was caught on RedRum by Brenton and his crew.
Awesome job guys.

Our remaining 2 Striped Marlin were 90 and 100 Lbs reeled in on Nuevo by Chad Slaton and Mary Hunter Slaton. Captain on this boat was Jesus and Mate was Manuel.
They also caught 1 Dorado.

Thanks for reading.
