September 19th Fish Report- Different Day, Same Results

Ryan, Brooke and I met Steve Boeckman at Misiones de Kino, a great local restaurant back in Febuary. We had just got done with a long day of fishing and had plenty of food to share. We sent a plate of fresh ceviche to his table. He had just gotten engaged and he and his fiance were celebrating with a good meal. After some small talk about the fish we sent over we brought out the tequila and the good times rolled after that. We have been in contact with Steve and tomorrow he gets married!!

Today we sent him and his buddies out to of course have a good time but more importantly to catch enought fish for a 40+ person dinner at Misiones tonight! I am happy to say that they did both! Steves group on his boat caught 11 Dorado while the other boat fishing wtih Javier on Rum Runnin caught plenty of Dorado as well as a nice Tuna and a Squid for some calamari appetizer! We are glad everything worked out and wish you 2 the best of luck!

Victor Cota and his friends headed out on El Nuevo today. Cabo night life may have gotten the best of them last night! They had some pretty interesting stories this morning when they showed up to the Redrum office. They cut their day a little short but were still able to catch plenty of Dorado! Victor and the gang have a couple of more days fishing with us, we'll keep you posted on their success!

Larry Schwarz and his sons fished on Reel Rum today and had a great time. Each of the guys were able to catch at least 5 Dorado. The larger ones were kept and Jesus was able to release the ones that looked like they still needed some time to grow! Great job guys and thanks for the releases.

TGIF!! Have a good weekend everyone!

September 18th Report

Kelly Ehlers and his buddy Jared had an awesome time fishing with Cesar on Tantrum today. The 2 were not too sure if they were going to be able to squeeze in a day of fishing while down on vacation but they are sure glad that they did. Cesar immediately put them on Dorado, they are every where right now! They caught 8 nice size bulls before 11:00am! Than the fun came, Raymond spotted a Marlin and hauled down the ladder for the live bait rod, sure enough, seconds later Jared was hooked up. An awesome 106" 180+ pound Stripe Marlin caught and released. Kelly also fought a Mako shark for 15-20 minutes before she got off the line. Great day guys. See you next year!

Our CCA group, Mr. Harry Johnson and his boys fished for their 2nd day on El Nuevo. Alex took great care of them both days. Yesterday they caught more Dorado than they could imagine. Today their plan was to look for Tuna. Unfortunately they could not find the school of Tuna, as they have seemed to have moved a little out of Cabo reach right now. No worries though, the 10 Dorado and 2 Stipe Marlin they caught kept them pretty busy!!

After checking out these CCA folks fish I'm starting to think they are some pretty good anglers! Pretty lucky too!

Dr. Rick Schneider brought the whole gang down from Kerrville, TX to check up on the Redrum crew as well as get some fishing in with his 2 boys Rich and Corey. The gang headed out on Rum Runnin this morning. After not hearing from them all day because of low signal on our 2 ways I was happy when I saw her cruise back into the Marina with boat full of smiling faces! The gang loaded up on Dorado, much released (gracias) which included a double hook-up of 50+ pound Bulls! Elizabeth, Rich's girlfriend caught the biggest fish of the day. An estimated 120 pound Pacific Sailfish! Of course, it was great seeing all of you guys. As always it was an awesome time with the Schneider family!! Thanks for everything.

Well off to vacuum seal fish!

Saludos,

Luis

September 16th Fish Report

Reel Rum was the only boat to head out of the marina for Redrum today. An early morning storm gave us a little scare about the Marina closing down but it lightened up aroun 5am. It proved to help out the fishing because the Breadon group caught over 20 Dorado today. They only kept 3 per angler and had plenty of meat to add to their catch from yesterday! Great job gang! 2 days of great Dorado fishing with Omar and Reel Rum.

We expect the bite to continue to be as solid as it has been the past couple of days so if you are interested in hooking into some nice Dorado shoot me an email at info@redrumcabo.com

Adios,

Luis

Pic of the Day - "To be alive a plus, To be on the sea a bonus"





Mr. Greg Mutch and his 71" Dorado. Mr. Mutch fished with us last month, several time with Alex and El Nuevo. He fished alone each day and he was glad he did. Mr. Mutch wrote me an email today and this is what it said:


"Good afternoon Luis,


Sorry this is a bit late but here (I hope) is a photo of the 71” Dorado I caught on El Nuevo on 22 August.


Thanks also for putting the harness on board. As a two time cancer survivor my left arm has been ravaged by surgery, chemo and radiotherapy. With a poor grip I would hate to drop a rod overboard!


I did not think the fishing was slow during my charter and you can see why. To be alive is a plus, to be on the sea a bonus, my largest sailfish and Dorado and a marlin after a 10 year wait - delight! Thanks guys.


Keep up the fish reports, they brighten up dreary days in London.
Will I be back – certainly. Will I fish with Redrum - definitely.

Best Wishes


Greg"


We applaud Mr. Mutch for showing us what it is really like to be a true passionate fisherman!
Cheers,
Luis

September 15th Fish Report

After spending most of last week locked up inside our houses due to the tropical storm that cruised over Baja the boys have been fishing with vengence!

The weekend was excellent for catching and releasing Stripe Marlin and Sailfish as well as Dorado.

Today was another one of those days. More Dorado than we can even vacuum seal in our office! Our good Redrum buddy Thomas "Chuck" Corley from Fort Worth, TX sent his dad down to fish with us today on El Nuevo. Chuck has had his own luck on El Nuevo, catching and releasing Stripe Marlin in the past. Mr. Corley came in and loaded up on more Dorado than he imagined! Him and his buddy Jerry Weber from TX caught and released over 10 Dorado and kept 10 nice Bulls for the freezer. Chuck should be expecting a couple of nice dinners with Mr. Corley and his fresh Dorado catch!

Mr. and Mrs. Content had a killer day with Cesar too. Tantrum got them hooked into 7 Dorado as well as 6 Yellowfin Tuna! Great day!!

Mr. Assenza came down withhis group and had a home run day with Javier and Americo on Rum Runnin. They were able to clean up on Dorado as well, each of the 5 of them were able to catch 3 Dorado! They will definately be taking home a full ice chest! To add to that, Americo also hooked them into 2 Stripe Marlin releases.

Mr. Breadon and his crew from Oregon fished their first of two days with us today. They were lucky to fish with Omar and Manuel on Reel Rum. They had 2 Sailfish hooked but unfortunately got off as well, but caught plenty of Dorado to keep them busy all day! They head out again tomorrow with Omar to see if they can repeat the day.

Keep up the great job Team Redrum!

GO COWBOYS!!!

September 6th Report

El Nuevo and Tantrum headed out today as the only 2 boats to fish for Redrum. They both had very good days fishing the close to shore up near Golden Gate.

Lois Friedman brought her family and friends down from the Washington area to fish with Alex on El Nuevo. They had a great (although hot!) time catching 4 Dorado as well as a monster Sailfish, the fish was a tad over 105" long!

Kirk Stradley, Rich Gough, and Samy Gough fished with Raymond and Tantrum today. Cesar is still being lazy - taking his one week vacation! He calls me everyday to see how well his boat did and is excited about comming back next week! Anyways, the boat continued her ways catching 4 Dorado, 2 Yellowfin Tuna, and a Sailfish! Great job guys and "pat-on-the-back" to the crew.

Off to watch some college football!

GO FROGS!!!

NFL kickoff tomorrow as well!

This may get me fired but... GO COWBOYS!!!

For the other 99.9% of the Redrum Team...GO PATS!!

September 5th Report- CCA meets El Nuevo!

Alex and Ramon were happy to fish with Whitney Thomas and her family. The group from the Coastal Conservation Association of Texas won a couple of days fishing with Alex and El Nuevo and started off on a great note today.

On their first day of fishing the group was able to land 3 nice Dorado and a Stripe Marlin that measured 107" weighing an estimated 180-190 pounds. Great way to start off your trip.

The Thomas' will head out again on Sunday to see if they can out-do day 1. Alex was up for the challenge!

Thank you to all the members of CCA for thier role in Coastal Conservation.

TGIF! Enjoy the weekend folks!
