'...THE BEST FISHING TRIP I'VE EVER DONE"

Hey people,

Today was an excellent day, customers came back very excited about their fishing trip. Ralph Horton had fished with us yesterday and decided to give it a second try today his after coming back from his fishing trip on Nuevo he said this was " The best fishing trip I've ever done" Kelly, lovely wife, compared this trip to Cancun and emphasized that Ralph had picked the right company! He's sure to come back next year.

We will be seeing more excellent reviews over Trip Advisor from all these happy fishermen!

On with today's fishing report. We had 4 boats out 3 full day and 1 half day. The seas were 4 ft, winds blowing at 9 mph, water temp was 86F and the weather temp was 92F. Perfect day for fishing!

On Tantrum we had Rusty and Cody Willey fishing for a full day with Captain Ramon and Mate Juan. This father-son trip had been planned for quite a while and they booked a few months in advanced. Their fishing took place 27 miles out by the Jaime Bank, their catch consisted of one 110Lbs Striped Marlin, six 10-15 Lbs Tunas and fifteen 45Lbs Dorados!! Wow these duo sure put in a lot of effort to catch all that! They decided not to keep any fish and it was all caught and released. Thank you guys so much for fishing with us.

Ralph Horton decided to go solo today on our 33' Nuevo with Captain Jesus and Mate Manuel. He had fished yesterdat on RumRunnin and decided to go for a second trip today. Ralph is a serious professional fisherman and he knew what he was after. He had an awesome day fishing with these guys and promised to come back next year for more action.
He caught a total of 2 Striped Marlin, 5 Dorado and lost 2 Blue Marlin one of them was over 300Lbs! while trying to reel them in, they broke the rod!!!!!!! Imagine the size and the speed! Thank you so much Ralph and Kelly for these days you decided to fish with us, we can't thank you enough for everything. Hope to see you next year.

on RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus we had Pete Kramer and his crew who also fished for a full day. Their fishing spots were the Jaime Bank and the Migrino Bank. These guys fished for a few hours before reeling in thier first Dorado. Their final number is 6 Dorado between 15-25 Lbs.

And last but not least Ladonna Lewis, Doug Lewis, Jason, David and Greg went out fishing for half a day on our 31' RedRum...after their trip was over these folks had a total of 9 Dorado between 30-35 Lbs and 2 Bonitas...not the time of year for Bonitas but they caught them anyways! This cheerful group came back to the office to talk about their awesome fishing trip and how much they enjoyed it. The best part while they were in the office telling me their story was the fact that they were making fun of one of their guys for having a pink camera....(very manly LOL) and when I saw them all cheer with a bottle of Pacifico to finish off their day. So glad they decided to fish with us and hopefully we will see them again in the near future.

Thanks for reading and have a fun and safe weekend.

The only thing Georgette did to cabo was make fish bite!





Morning Guys,

There hasn't been much to report over the past days, yesterday was a slow day becuase of the thunderstorm that hit Cabo, nothing bad just a rain through out most of the day, no damage or anything. Today we have one boat out, newly wed Steve Springer and wife Kim Newman are out fishing on RumRunnin with captain Javier and Mate Jesus. The couple decided to go fishing with Chris Hopper and Charles Boatwright for a half day. Their final catch for the day was 12 Dorado and 1 Striped Marlin (C/R). They took some fish for lunch at the Hacienda Cantina and will be coming back this afternoon to pick up the rest. Hope they enjoy their meal.

We're expecting some showers for the rest of the week but then again, sometimes the weather forecast seems to make mistakes. Anyhow, we will let you know if need be.

Here are some pictures that Laurie Turney sent, she fished on Saturday aboard 31' RedRum with Captain Omar and Mate Americo. This trip was a birthday gift to Hubby Brant who turned ?????...I am not sure if I should say the age or not...I probably won't, and let Laurie post it as a comment if she thinks proper. I do know the age because Laurie whispered it while being escorted to the boat this nice couple was going to be on that day. Their fishing trip ended with 4 Dorados and 3 Marlin (All billfish were caught and released)

Thanks Laurie for the pics and we hope to see you again "reel" soon.

Thanks!

A Cloudy Monday...

It's a cloudy some what sprinkly day in Los Cabos today. Cabo San Lucas hasn't seen much sunshine today but it makes for a really nice break from the heat! It even sprinkled a bit this morning when I had an errand to run out in San Jose del Cabo.

The wonderful group staying in Portofino this week from Texas went out on their second day with Alex and Jesus on El Nuevo. To get the bite they had to go out pretty far up near Jamie Bank and even beyond. This group wanted Marlin & Tuna more than anything, which the guys found, but couldn't make them eat. The Tuna were out there boiling at Jamie Bank but couldn't get them to bite with numerous attempts using live bait, lures y nada. However they did have much success with 6 15-20 pound Dorado near the shore of Los Arcos that they're excited to bring back to Tejas with them!

RumRunnin also took off today with our good friends Joe & Karen Assenza along with their friends who are first timers to Cabo. Their situation was much the same, a long stretch before they got their first bite after 12 o'clock. Joe, who fishes with us quite often said, "Wow that was the longest I've had to wait to get a bite!" It was worth the wait. Karen reeled in a nice size Mako Shark that took off right at the side of the boat. And they were able to reel in 4 Dorado which we will be enjoying with them at dinner!

Great day on the water everyone!

Thanks for reading.

Ridiculous action on the water today!

Today was absolutely ridiculous. It makes you wonder how amazing the ocean can be. How can there be days that we troll around all day for naught, and other days like today where we can't keep the fish off the lures.

Ashley Mahler and Claudia Szceiko from San Jose, California were in today to join Omar and Americo on RedRum. Ashley's boyfriend had fished with us before and she was eager to get out on the water while down in Cabo for a girl's trip. Salud to that, we need more ladies getting out on the water together! That being said, the women did fantastic out there, catching a total of 9 Dorado and they were back by Noon.

Randy and Nancy Semas, along with their two children Angela and Jordan joined Javier and Jesus on Rum Runnin today. With Americo moving over to fish with Omar on the new 31' RedRum we put in the water, Jesus has been teaming up with Javier....and they have been hot! Today was no exception, 9 Dorado, 5 Tuna and 2 Sailfish! Are you kidding me?

We had 2 anglers whom I will not name that had reservations to fish on ReelRum today that did not show up to go fishing. This happens from time to time, and for various reasons. But, what a day to miss.

Frank Wylie, Michael Adams and Frank's wife Thanom were out for day 4 of 5 today with Ramon and Juan again. They fished outside of Chilleno Bay 6 to 7 miles and had 9 Dorado, a Sailfish and a Marlin. Unbelievable.

Finally, our CCA, Stay and Play Customers Rob Waumke, Clark Carnes, and William Daunch had a banner day out with Alex and Manuel on El Nuevo RedRum. 18 fish! 2 Blue Sharks, 2 Striped Marlin, 2 Sailfish, and 12 Dorado on the day.

***If you are reading this report and not immeadiately looking at flights to get down here please go see your physician and have your vitals checked. Fishing is absolutely ridiculous.

It's been the Ansite report the last two days....

After battling a monster Striped Marlin for more than 4 hours on Saturday, James Ansite had the hot hand again today. We figured we would stay away from the Marlin, but that didn't keep Jesus and Javier from getting all over the Tuna and Dorado. James finished up with 5 nice Yellowfin, one over 40lbs, and 2 Dorado as well.

The Garfield Brothers, Bob and Josh, from Ardmore, PA joined Ramon and Juan today for a day aboard TantRum. 2 Dorado, a 35 lb fish and a smaller 15lb fish were the first fish to hit the deck. Next up was the real battle, a nice catch and release Blue Marlin of about 220-230lbs.

Mark, Dan and Terry, your Tripadvisor Black and Green 2010 discovery team were out for their second day on the water today. For those that do not know, RedRum Sportfishing is the main sponsor of the Tripadvisor.com fishing tournament that they host in November. It is an event organized by the members of tripadvisor.com's Cabo San Lucas forum, and in large part Mark, Dan and Terry. They had 3 Dorado, 1 nice Yellowfin and Terry was able to catch his Striped Marlin.

Peter and Carrie Walsh, our friends from here in Cabo, had a pretty solid birthday weekend planned. After spending Saturday chilling at Chilleno Bay, Sunday was a fishing day for the family. Half a day was more than enough for Ian, and Hannah to bring in a nice catch and release Striped Marlin and a 30 pound Mahi Mahi. Happy Birthday and thanks for being such great friends guys!

4 Dorado on RedRum

So Mark Stange and John came back for their fishing trip and came back with 4 Dorado with an average weight of 20- 23 Lbs. They spotted a lot of tuna out there but tuna has not been biting right now. I really don't know why Tuna has been slow through out this whole month?

Anyhow, Mark will be fishing again on RedRum tomorrow and John might go out fishing with him again.

They had an awesome time out there.

Lets see how the do tomorrow.


Thanks
Nick
