WIDE VARIETY OF FISH CAUGHT!!!!
I’m always amazed at the summertime fishing around the Baja peninsula this time of year. Blue, Black and Striped Marlin are regulars in the trolled patterns behind the boats. Larger Yellowfin Tuna and some nice size Dorado were also caught this week. There was even a 15lb. Pargo caught while chumming with sardines on the Iman Bank. You just never know…..
August 18th. was a great day for good customer Brian Sodi and his friends. They fished 3 days and today they released a big Striped Marlin and boated 4 Yellowfin Tuna fishing aboard our 31’ Cabo Express with Captain Eduardo “Lalo” Cesena at the helm and deckhand Ruben working the cockpit.
It’s rare that a boat releases a Blue Marlin and is not our boat of the day, but today was an exception. Taking top honors was our 32’ Cabo Express “Picante Express” with Captain Antonio “Nino” Romero at the controls. This August 19th. Chris Morace and his friends wanted food fish and “Nino” did not disappoint putting them on 10 Yellowfin Tuna to 60 pounds. Anybody got “Wasabi” ¿??
Mid-week schools of Dorado surrounded the Baja Peninsula and all boats caught this great tasting fish. It’s was tough to keep them out of the pattern for those looking for Marlin. Our boat of the day was our legendary 40’ Tolleycraft “Picante” with Captain David Lieras at the helm and deckhand Fernando working the pit. They released a
Striped Marlin and boated 4 big Dorado. The filets were enjoyed by all…..
Sometimes when a plan comes together all it does is put smiles on peoples faces. Our new friend from Frankfort, Germany, Andreas Funke made the long trip to our desert
Paradise in search of his first Marlin. I must admit it took a month of emails and some arm twisting but he was finally convinced. He’s fishing 4 days on our fast 29’ Blackfin
“Picante 29” with Captain Alex Collins at the controls and deckhand “Charro” working the pit. Andreas brought a lot of video gear and we schooled “Charro” on the operation of the stuff. On his second day of fishing Andreas and crew released 3 Striped Marlin which were captured on video. He also boated 10 Yellowfin Tuna. No doubt a “Picante”
customer for life.
