Good Morning everyone,
Hope you are all having a fantastic mid week! Time is going by so fast lately, or is it just my imagination?
Yesterday's catch was a total of 1 Blue Marlin (170Lbs), 2 Striped Marlin (180 - 190 Lbs), 2 Tuna (60 Lbs) and 1 Hammerhead Shark.
We had customers from Atlanta, Houston, Canada, New York, California, and Cabo! Weather was great, 96F, sea temperature 80F, winds blowing at 9 mph and waves 5 ft high. It was a good day out there. We had a full moon last night, I don't believe in the whole "Moon Theory" but some people do, will see how fishing goes today.
On the 28' ReelRum, we had Bob Eger who came in on the Cruise Ship along with his family Mark, Justin and Linda. These nice folks from California reserved a spot on RedRum's boat a while back. They went out with Captain Jesus and Mate Edgar for a half day of fishing...had to be on the boat by 6 PM Cruise time, and before heading back, they wanted to do some shopping. By the end of their trip they had caught and released (C/R) 1 Striped Marlin. Glad to meet you guys at the main dock!
Another group that I met yesterday at the main dock was David Sproule and his crew Harrison, Christopher and Edwin. These guys from Canada and New York went out for half a day on the 32' RedBeam along with Captain Cesar and Mate Ramon. By the end of their trip Harrison had C/R and Hammerhead shark, some of the guys got a bit drowsey, but managed to enjoy the trip! Glad to hear ya'll had fun!
James Alexci and Chris Marrus from Atlanta and Houston fished for a full day on El Nuevo along with Captain Omar and Mate Juan and Manuel. These guys C/R 1 Striped Marlin through out their day of fishing. Had a great time, and Captain and Mates came back to the office to say these guys were great! I really didn't get a chance to talk to them after they had finish ed their fishing trip, but I am sure they had an awesome time out in the Southern Baja Waters! Thanks Guys!
And Last but not Least we had Alvaro from Cabo San Lucas taking a full day trip on RumRUnnin with his buddies from Sinaloa, Mexico. They were out with Captain Javier and Mate Americo and ended up with 1 Blue Marlin which weighed 170 Lbs and 2 Yellowfin Tuna. This is the third Blue Marlin of the year guys, which means they are getting closer!
Thanks for reading.

Case of the Monday's!
As if Monday's weren't bad enough right? My customers from yesterday that re-scheduled due to the rain, re-scheduled for today and once again did not show up. This time without so much as a phone call to let us know. One bad apple isn't going to spoil this bunch though, the folks that did show up had a great day on the water.
Jason Sanford and his buddies from Idaho had a nice day on the water aboard ReelRum today. They didn't bring in any monsters, but they did finish the day with 3 nice Dorado and a Jack Crevalle.
The Roach clan, from Louisiana fished with us today aboard Pescado III. Captain Fidencio found a big school of Porpoise and Tuna but couldn't get any fish to strike. With a chef waiting back at their house, they needed something for the grill and luckily came back closer to shore and got into some Dorado. They also trolled the shoreline late in the day and got a real nice Rooster fish that was in the 40lb class.
Ken and Dawn Foster from Oshkosh, Wisconsin were down with their two kids, Ashley and Matt and they had a nice day on the water aboard El Nuevo RedRum. While they only caught and released 1 Marlin, they had a lot of action throughout the day and had a blast. They pitched bait to at least 4 other fish, and had a whole school of Dorado striking lures and bait, unfortunately no hook-ups though.

Slow Sunday with RAIN!!!
Can't remember the last time that we had rain in July, but as I left the house this morning, it was raining pretty good. I know this is probably second nature for most of you readers, but considering we get about 5 rainy days a year, it was really interesting for us. By the time I got to the office things had subsided and by 7:30am it was completely clear skies!
I certainly won't name names, but we had one group that backed out of their charter because of the weather. I can't imagine not wanting a little sprinkle to cool things off while on the water in July, but to each their own.
The Unger family didn't back down, hell no. They were going fishing come hell or high water, no pun intended. Dean, Dale, Zach and Jacob had three generations of fishermen out there today! Grandfather, Father and his two sons, how cool. I mentioned to the boys how many people would have loved to have been able to fish with their grandfather. The Unger guys were amazed at how quickly they hooked up once they got to the fishing grounds, catching and releasing a nice Striped Marlin within the first hour. They also had a nice Dorado and a Tuna before the day was done.

Great Catch with RedRum!
Wow guys, today was such a great day! All our boats came back with fish, no one got skunked, no one got seasick, and the best part one of our group had alrady caught and released 4 Marlins before 8 AM! EXCELLENT!!!
We also C/R a Blue Marlin and a Sailfish aside from the other 6 Striped Marlin caught on our boats.
We had 5 boats out today:
John Myres from the CCA group in Texas came fishing for the second and last day. They brought back 12 Dorados and 4 Tuna. Yesterday they C/R a Sailfish. Today John and Hunter decided to go out instead of the whole group. They did an awesome job and had a great time.
On RedBeam Sandra Haut and her family enjoyed a nice 8 hour trip with Captain Cesar and Mate Ramon, they caught the 2nd Blue Marlin of the year. It weighed 160 Lbs. This monday was also the first time we caught a Black Marlin so this means they are coming in guys! Nice Work Sandy & Fam.
Dave Hughes....All I can say is that this guy is going to leave Baja without any fish!, this is his second day of fishing with his son. It was a father-son trip. This group caught 6 Dorado, 1 tuna 1 Marlin (C/R) yesterday and today they did 2 tuna, 5 Dorado, 1 Sailfish (C/R) and 1 Hammerhead. Our freezers are stuffed with their catch..Nice Dave, glad you had an awesome time. It Only took Dave's 12 yr old son 10 min to reel in the Marlin caught yesterday!
Ted and Lew did another day of fishing. These guys came back to the office on Wednesday and since they had a great time, they decided to do it all over again. Once again they were out on Anzuelo with captain Salvador and before 8 AM they had already catched and released 4 striped Marlin! the biggest one being 10 ft! NICE!!! I know we have gain another loyal customer for the years to come.
Last but not least Corson Lawrence from Dallas, went out for a half day on the 31' Fishtails, they ended up C/R 2 Striped Marlin which weighed 80 Lbs. They wen't fishing by the 95 bank and the Cabeza de Ballena Bank (Whale's Head Bank)

On July 21st:
Ted Mainiero and his crew from New Jersey went out on the 28' Anzuelo and during their trip they caught and released 2 Marlin and kept 2 Dorado.

Ray Payne from Louisiana fished with his friends on RumRunnin and after a full day of fishing they caught 2 Marlin (released) and 1 Dorado.
John Kasser and his kids also went out but on Nuevo. These folks from Chicago had a great time even though the little ones got a bit seasick and came back early, they still made a day out of it. They wanted to catch Tuna and they did. They reeled in 4 Yellowfin. Great job!
Paul Cannon went out on RedBeam and by the end of their trip they had reeled in 3 Dorado, 2 of them were 40Lbs and 1 was 50Lbs. Awesome!
July 22nd:
Braun Knutson decided to go out again on Nuevo, this time he went solo. HIs final catch was 1 striped Marlin (released) it was 60 Lbs and 1 small tuna 10Lbs. He had a great day out there.That's why they keep coming back!!!
From North Carolina we had Austin O'Reilly and Eileen who fished on ReelRum. These folks gave a full day trip a shot and catched 2 Dorado and 1 Marlin (released).
And last but not least Gary Baumgartner fished on RumRunnin and reeled in 1 Dorado.
All these folks had an awesome time fishing with us. Hopefully you will decide to come join the fun sometime soon.
Thanks for reading.

Monday Marlin and Dorado
Today was a beautiful day on the water here in Cabo. Seas were very calm and winds were less than 10 knots which made for some happy folks. The boys are still fishing from the 95 to the 1150 and the Marlin action is very heavy. One boat did see some Dorado and Wahoo action, and the first Black Marlin siting of the season also occured. Interesting day off of Cabo San Lucas.
Gary Caligiuri along with his daughter and two of her girlfriends, all from West Grove, Pennsylvania. Gary has his hands full on this "vacation" with two 16 year-olds and an 18 year-old. I offered to let him borrow one of our thicker fishing poles to beat all the young boys away when they are back at the resort pool. Well, I have to give credit to the girls. They got up and joined Dad for a day on the water, and as is the case, it turned out to be a great decision. Gary and the girls had a great time with Javier and Omar aboard Rum Runnin'. They stayed busy throughout the day with 3 Striped Marlin all caught and released. Good luck the rest of the trip Gary!
Bill Greaves, a "casi" or almost in english local, had two buddies in town visiting and today was day 2 of fishing for Roy Muller from Pocatello, Idaho and Allen Burns from Green River, Utah. Day 1 the guys caught and released their first Marlin and day 2 wasn't much different. They still only managed to catch and release 1 Striped Marlin, but they did have few others taking bait and getting hooked before losing the fish before they got to the boat.
Bob Thayer Sr. and Bob Thayer Jr. joined the crew of Marlin Too for a day on the water today and they had some good luck over at the 1150 and Iman banks. They landed 2 Dorado, lost another and had a nice hook-up on a Wahoo before losing that fish before they got it to the boat. They also noticed a boat in the same vicinity that was battling a big Black Marlin! While they unfortunately, weren't the ones in on the action, it is nice to see that the Black's and presumably Blue's have started to show up!
Braun Knutson and his wife Shannon are down from Bismarck, North Dakota on vacation after a hectic 4th of July holiday in the US. While the 4th of July is normally a great time to relax and enjoy time with friends and family, the Knutson's are in the fireworks business, so it is their busiest time of work all year. Avid outdoorsmen, the Knutson's definitely wanted to get out on the water while here in Cabo. They had their hearts set on catching a Marlin and Alex and Manuel knew where they were biting. They headed to the 1150 and after catching and releasing their first Marlin, Alex and Manuel were able to hook two more fish, but they weren't able to get them all the way to the boat. Braun is hoping to get back on the water for another day of action, and to hopefully get Shannon some time on the rod and reel.

Sunday's Marlin Bite was Incredible
Typical to a Sunday in Cabo, things are pretty slow around here. Folks are either heading to the airport or sleeping off a long first night in Cabo. Well, we did have a few folks that managed to make it down to the docks and onto the boats for a day on the water.
William Shiver was back on the water for day two with his son Nathan and his buddy, Tylor. After only 1 Marlin on day 1, it was time to get the other guys hooked up and Javier and Americo on Rum Runnin' were up for the challenge. Day 2 was excellent for the guys as they each got to pull on a Marlin. With 3 Striped Marlin, catch and releases, they had a great day on the water.
Keith and Dana Conway, down from Newark, Deleware enjoyed their first of 3 days on the water. Hopefully. Keith just had back surgery 8 weeks ago and things aren't exactly healing quickly. Well, it's a good thing Dana was aboard El Nuevo RedRum with him today, because Alex and Manuel got into the Marlin pretty good. Keith and Dana each caught and released 2 Striped Marlin for a total of 4 Marlin. That's not going to help the Back much, hopefully Alex and Manuel can put them on some Dorado or schoolie size Tuna on day 2.
