Not much to report

Hi Everybody,

It's been a few days since we last updated the blog. Truth is there hasn't been much to report. Biting has gone down this week. We really haven't been catching much. I blame it on the wind! we are having strong winds probably around 10-15 mph. The days have been sunny and hot, but that just isn't making much of a difference.

Today we had our 28' Tantrum with Cecilia and Richard Egland. They wen't out for half a day and came back with 8 Sierra. It really isn't that bad if we compare it to the other days!

And we also had Gary Sarver, Wes, Whitney and Robin Moran on a Panga. The as well were able to catch 7 Sierra.

Just a reminder, here in Cabo we do daylight savings next Sunday April 4th, so if you are planning on traveling or fishing with us on those dates, please be aware of this time change. That's all for today.
I hope fishing picks up in the next couple of days.

Thanks for reading.

Strong Winds, Wild Waves

Today the fishing was still the same. Not many fish are biting and some of our boats are coming back without a catch.
We also had very strong waves out in the Ocean. This doesn't really help out our anglers as they get seasick and of course fish are harder to find. Hopefully by Next week we will have better luck.
The winds are 10-15mph and the water temepture on the Sea Of Cortez is around 74F while back in the Pacific, temerature is in the Upper 60'sF.

On the 32' RedBeam, Captain Cesar and Mate Ramon went out with Gray Turner, Cody and Gage. After a full day of fishing, Gary reeled in an 8FT Striped Marlin, it took him almost 2 hours to get it in, he ended up exhausting after fighting it. He promised he would send the pics, so I will be posting them ASAP. They had a great day and really enjoyed it. Thanks guys, hope to see you soon.

CCA group members Troy Prasek and Tyler Williams went out for their second and last day of fishing with RedRum. They headed out almost 40 miles out and came back with a Marlin. Today's was the guys' turn to fish while the ladies enjoyed a "Ladies Day Out" which included shopping and other stuff. I heard the Prasek Brothers got seasick, but still managed to make it all the way through the 8 hours. That's the spirit guys! They were on our 33' Nuevo
Thanks and have a safe flight back home.

A regular customer Joe Assenza went out for his first day of fishing out of 2 this month, he was accompanied by Wife Karen and son Anthony. They came back with 1 yellowfin and decided to take some back to their favorite restaurant to get it cooked up. Hopefully they will catch more on Monday. We will see Joe again in October for the Bisbee Tournament. He was on our 32' Rum Runnin.

104" Striped Marlin

Today fishing did not pick up for the 5 boats that we had out today. This morning started off a bit wild, but through out the day things started to chill down a bit. We had the Tates and The Kapusta Party fishing with us. On the first group we had 16 guys and on our second group we had 6 guys as well who came to Cabo for John Kapusta's wedding.

John Kapusta managed to reel in a 104" Striped Marlin which was aprox. 180Lbs. He's still thinking about getting it mounted and I would defintely say HECK YEAH! that's a once in a lifetime moment. He may go out fishing again but you never know if you're gonna catch something that size again. He will let us know and I will keep you guys updated. I hope he sends pictures of his catch soon to show off to all our friends! It took John about an hour and a half for this big guy to come on the boat. Excellent job buddy and congrats on the wedding!

And he wasn't the only one from his party to catch a big one. Dylan Reeder also reeled in a 95" Marlin. It took him around 20 mins to get it in. He did it all on his own! Great job buddy!

Thank you all for reading.

Fish Report Mar. 18

TGIF everybody.

Hope ya'll are having an awesome morning and have begun planning ahead for the weekend.
Things have been slow in Cabo San Lucas, this week it has been up and down as you may be aware of by reading the fish reports. Yesterday was no exception.

We had 4 boats out Yesterday: Tantrum, Rum Runnin, RedBeam, and Nuevo. There were two last minute cancellations otherwise we would've had 6 boats out.

Visiting from Wala Wala Washington we had Walter Williams and buddies Matthew, Dave, Tim, John and Lindsey on our 32' Rum Runnin along with Captain Javier and Mate Americo going out for a full day charter and coming back with 1 Dorado.

On our 28' Tantrum we had Jim , Jackie, Judy and Alex Viglasky fishing with Captain Ramon and Omar out in the Pacific Side and reeling in 4 Sierra. Really cool family, they did not stop by afterwards but I sure hope they come again before they leave. Thank you guys for fishing with us!

Tyler Williams and Troy Prasek from CCA joined us Yesterday for their first day of fishing out of three. On RedBeam we had Tyler Williams and his crew coming back with a Yellowfin. While Trop and his peeps managed to catch 1 Wahoo and 1 Marlin.

I will keep you updated with today's fishing report.

Thanks!

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Hi Everybody,

Happy St. Patricks day to all, hope everyone is wearing green!!! Ryan and Brooke are back from their trip to Puerto Vallarta and it seems they had a great time! It's good to have them here in Cabo again!

Fishing has been up and down these past two days, on Monday we did good, can't say great but it was acceptable, but yesterday was a very slow day. I thought we'd have more fish in but the truth was the opposite.

On Monday March 15th we had 5 boats out.
On our 28' Tantrum we had The Raley Party fishing with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan for a full day trip and reeling 1 Marlin, 1 Sailfish and 4 Sierra through out the day. Great Job guys!

We also had Tim Pitman for his first day of fishing out of 2 on the 28' Anzuelo. Another former alumni from TCU. He was fishing with Steve, Alex and Cash. They reeled in 8 sierra, 1 Trigger fish and had fun catching 6 squid. Hope they have more fish in later today on their second fishing adventure.

On their third and last day of Fishing we had Gary Gonzalez and his party of three who flew back to their hometown taking back this day's catch which consisted of 1 Yellowfin and 2 Squids. I personally don't like squid but maybe they'll find a good recipe to cook it up. They have plenty of fish for a big feast! Thanks Guys. See you soon

On the 32' Rum Runnin, Captain Javier and mate Americo were fishing out with Doug Lavesque and his crew. These guys wen't out 37 miles in the Pacific by Cabeza de Ballena (Whale's Head) and caught 8 Yellowfin Tunas. Good Job guys! Glad you had fun, see you real soon.

The day ended with Hugo Rutherfurd who was on our 32' RedBeam and wanted to go out a little late, so they decided to start their fishing day at 7:30 AM. They came back at the normal time and were lucky too, because they reeled in 12 sierra and 8 Squids. People say Squids don't count but they're fun to catch!

Thanks Hu.

On March 16th, we had 8 boats out and you would expect it to be a good fishing day...truth is, it was very sloooooooooooooooow. Out of the 8 boats only 2 of them came back so there really isn't much to report for that day. We did have a lot of Friends from the State of Texas!

On Rum Runnin we had John McMakin who came in at 10:30 from a Cruise ship and ended his fishing day with 1 Dorado.

On our 33' Nuevo we had Chipper Dipple from Texas along with his ladies Carolyn, Ashton and Channing Dipple. They ended their day with 8 Sierra and some Calamari. Great job guys. Hope to see you again soon.

That's how fishing has been in the past two days.
I want to congratulate Lauren and Rand Lionberger who just tied the knot this past Saturday and decided to put in some fishing activities during their Honeymoon. Thanks guys, we hope you enjoyed the day...CONGRATULATIONS once again.

Not much to report!

Good day to all of our friends and readers.

Hope you are all enjoying of a wonderful Sunday and I sure hope you did not forget to set your clock an hour ahead!

Just as a reminder, here in Cabo San Lucas we still haven't started Day Light Savings time, so make sure you come in the office with our local time schedule. Our daylight savings time will being like in 2 or 3 weeks but I will let you guys know, so nobody ends up going out late or coming in too early!

There's not much to report today, it was a bit slow.

We had 4 boats out but only 2 of them were able to catch something.

On our 32' Rum Runnin', Captain Javier and Mate Americo were able to help Dustin Duey and Michelle reel in a 8ft long, 160 Lb. Marlin. These guys are visiting from Illinois. They did not come back to the office, but I was told by our crew that they were happy! Glad to hear that and hopefully we can see them again in the near future.

From the beautiful Bay Area....(Yes, I am from San Francisco!) On our 32' RedBeam we had Patrick, Amelia, Sam and Beenadette Lupinetti along with Michael Baily fishing with us today. Captain Ramon did his best to end the day with 9 Sierra for these nice people.

We were in the upper 70's today and the water temperture was 74F.

Hope some more action will happen tomorrow, in the meantime...Thanks for reading!

They're Here!

Hello again!

Things are defintely getting better here in Cabo San Lucas. We are in a high 77F with very calm winds today. We had our 4 boats out Tantrum, Rum Runnin, RedBeam and Nuevo. Fishing was great! couple of Marlin, Yellowfin and Sierra was today's menu.

Aboard our 28' Tantrum was Tom Spina and Kathleen Buonarosa along with Captain Omar and Mate Juan. They started doing some inshore fishing for a while and then headed out for some more action. They reeled in 1 Marlin.

On our 32' Rum Runnin we had a shared party with Captain Javier and Mate Americo. It's funny because yesterday we had the Andre Hage and Cynthia Jenkins coming in to share a boat with someone, we didn't have anybody on our list and all of the sudden Frank Statile comes in looking to share a boat as well. They had a lot of things in common...it was a match made in Heaven! These guys went out 38 miles in the Pacific and came back with 13 Yellowfin. The biggest one was 160Lb! and was reeled in by Andre Hage! Good job to everyone on the boat!

On our 32' we had Captain Cesar and Mate Ramon fishing for half a day with Jeff Roper and his 5 buddies. They did inshore fishing and caught 10 Sierra. Very good guys!

On our 33' We had Gary Gonzalez and crew who are staying at the Portofino Condos and fishing with us for 2 more days on Nuevo along with Captain Alex and Mate Manuel. These guys came back with 8 Yellowfin and 1 Marlin. I knew they'd catch something!

Hopefully they will be able to surpass their own number in the next couple of days!

Yellowfin and Marlin are back and biting well! So folks, come on down to Cabo San Lucas and fish with us, we can't guarantee you'll catch something, but we can guarantee you'll have an awesome time!

Thanks
Nick
