Hey Guys,
Great Tuesday it was. We had such an awesome fishing day. Pacific side for inshore fishing is starting to pick up while bigger fish such as Marlin is still on the Sea of Cortez and about 1.5 hrs away from here. Water is still a bit cool.
We had John Schipper and his party of 6 fish on RedRum with Captain Americo and Mate Edgar. These guys decided to head out to the Sea of Cortez in search of Marlin and not only did they catch 1 but 2!
They wen't out 30 miles and the weights were aprox. 120 and 130 Lbs.
Brad & Jennifer Bohem and Daniel 7 Kathy Brusca fished for a full day on RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus. These guys had a great day in the water and even though it was a bit choppy out there, they still had fun and managed to catch 2 nice size Yellowtails. The weights were 40 Lbs each. They took the fish back home and were going to enjoy a nice meal. Their next trip is scheduled for next Tuesday and I know they will want to go for something bigger this time!
And last but not least we had the Paleczny party fishing on Nuevo with Jesus and Manuel as their crew. These guys did great! they caught a total of 7 yellowtail, 1 jack grevalle and 6 spanish mackerel. Congrats to all our customers for their successful fishing trip!

Sunday Session
After running 35 miles to Iman Bank and seeing countless Marlin the day before, the two crews that fished Sunday were eager to get back and give it another shot. Couldn't go up there two days and a row and find Marlin that wouldn't eat could we?
Absolutely not.
Mike Rutkowski took out his son Michael and friend Stephen Zelenka aboard Rum Runnin' today. Sr. had caught a Marlin before, but he was anxious to give Jr. a shot at one as well. Captain Jesus was up to the task. He ran up to Iman bank and found plenty of Marlin free jumping, but not many tailers. After rigging a dead Ballyhoo on the shotgun pole, Jr. had his fish. After a 25 minute battle Michael had landed his first Striped Marlin. Congrats buddy!
The Duncan clan was also keen to catch a Marlin and they were fishing aboard RedRum. This is a very similar story to the one above, only the roles were reversed. Jacob Duncan had caught a Marlin before, however, his dad Franklin had not. Americo and Manuel also ran up to Iman bank and after a long day they were finally able to hook one on a live pitch bait. Franklin, congrats on your first billfish as well!
Best,
Ryan

Rough Saturday, Smooth Seas
While we had beautifully calm seas on Saturday, the fish didn't want to cooperate. Not sure if the feeding frenzy Friday kept the fish from biting Saturday or if the big full moon had something to do with it, but the Marlin didn't want to eat. You can lead a horse to water right?
Chris Vine fished a half-day with his wife Christal, friends Ken and Becky Roux, as well as Brian Roux and Jaime Fisher. Captain Javier on Rum Runnnin', stayed inshore on the half-day and the six anglers caught a few Skippies and 3 Sierra that they brought back to cook up for dinner. Chris is thinking about fishing the Western Outdoor News Tuna Jackpot with us this year after being impressed by the boats and crews.
RedRum, El Nuevo RedRum and TantRum all came back shaking their heads wondering why they couldn't get Marlin to bite as they all saw multiple Marlin.
Captain Pancho on Marlin Too was the only one able to get a few fish to bite as anglers Sean Plummer and Jeff Koll each got to catch and release a nice Striped Marlin. This was Sean's first Billfish and he was stoked!

Marlin is back in action!
So the 411 we got on the marlin bite was actually true! Punta Gorda is the hot spot right now for Marlin fishing. This place is an hour and so away from Cabo San Lucas, so if you are doing a full day charter you definitely have to give it a shot, who knows, maybe you'll be the next person to catch and release a Striper!
Our first customer to come back today was Jason Perri and his party of 6 (Frank, Michael, Stefani and two small kids) these guys did a half day trip and only focused on small fish. Their trip with Alex and Manuel was fun and they caught a total of 1 skipjack and 1 sierra. Not bad for a half day.
Mark and Mellissa Kellenberger fished on Tantrum for a full day with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan. This couple from Michigan had an awesome time today. They landed 2 striped Marlin that took them 30-45 min to reel in. They were 140 & 170 Lbs. AWESOME!
And last but not least Jason Langen, Jenn Lempiala, Tylor Squire & Courtney Camelot fished on RedRum with Omar and Americo and they also had a great day in the water. They only focused on Marlin and took the suggestion to go to Punta Gorda. By 8 AM they were ready to start reeling. They landed 2 striped Marlin and took them 30-35 min each to get them in. They weighed 120 & 160 Lbs! Another great fishing experience. Hope these guys from Canada spread the word!
Thanks for reading and have a great weekend.

More inshore bite
Inshore fishing is still great. Not a lot of our customers are up to go out 30 miles off for Marlin so they decide to stick with inshore fishing. And yesterday we got heads up on the Marlin Bite which is great by the Gordo Banks, like an hour and 15 min away.
Fred and Krista Moore fished for a half day on RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus and these folks from Houston Texas had a great day in the water, they enjoyed it all the way. They caught 6 Sierra, 1 Red Snapper and 1 Pampano.
From Idaho we had Earle Giles and Bill Aim fishing for a half day on a Panga boat and they landed 4 yellowtails. Not bad! great job guys.
On Nuevo with Captain Alex and Mate Manuel we had Scott and Adan Lawford along with Matthew Dill fishing for a full day and they managed to catch and release 1 striped Marlin that weighed 120 Lbs and was 9 ft. This was caught by the 1150 bank.
And last but not least Bryan Bledsoe fished with his family for a full day trip and they caught 6 sierra on day 1 of their 2 trips scheduled with RedRum. Hopefully tomorrow they will have another awesome trip.
Thanks

Marlin, Sierra and Bonitas. Great Weekend!
Hey Ya'll.
Great weekend here in Cabo, tourism a bit mellow but not too bad. It gave me a bit of time to get done with office stuff I had been draggin for a while now!
Anyhow on to the fishing report.

We had David Daniel, Vickie Foley, Napoleon Espinoza and Liz Espinoza fishing on our 33' Nuevo for a full day.

It was a great day for these folks, glad they enjoyed it.

Keith Wright fished for a half day on Tatrum alongside Renee Wright. They had a good time in the water as well and caught a total of 6 Spanish Mackerel.
Yesterday we had 2 boats go out and they were both half days, still fishing was good!

Stripers on the Sea of Cortez!
Hey All,
Everything has been calm here in Cabo and we hadn't updated our fish report because the last few days there hasn't been much to report.
However, yesterday was different. We fished on the Sea of Cortez by the 1150 bank and fishing was good. Especially for Marlin which is what we caught and released yesterday.
On Tantrum we had Dale Clayton, Theresa Clayton, Garrett Clayton and Brett Thompson who fished with Captain Ramon and mate Juan on a full day trip. These guys landed an 8 ft 150 Lbs Striped Marlin in 40 mins. It's not a bad day at all considering several facts such as strong winds, not the right time for Marlin and basically weather conditions. I'm glad they had a fun trip. They came back to the office really excited and stoked with their day in the water. They'll be sending pictures and video soon!
Our second and last group to fish yesterday was Sean and Anne Greene who booked a two day fishing trip with Captain Omar and Mate Americo. On their first day they also landed a Striped Marlin by the 1150 bank and it was aprox. 140 Lbs. Today they're out fishing again and were planning on going for something smaller this time. We'll keep you posted on what their final catch was!
Have a great Saturday.
