Duarte again!

Hey senor Sean,

After the crazy SE that blew over last weekend we have had picture perfect weather, deep blue water an ocean full of life…and some pretty EPIC fishing.

Unfortunately despite such perfect conditions we have not been targeting Marlin on heavy tackle as with such a ridiculous amount of gamefish such as wahoo, dorado and yellowfin tuna as well as sailfish around, guests have preferred to tackle these on light tackle.

Tuesday and Wednesday we only went out for a couple hours and some pretty good fish and lost a bus yellowfin and a big GT we fought for 35 minutes. But yeah, there is so much Yellowfin it´s stupid!!!

Yesterday we fished in the morning and released a sailfish out of a double strike, missed two black Marlin and again got a whole bunch of yellowfin tuna.

Today was epic…we started with a sailfish pack attack and managed to hook 3 of the five bites and released two fish. We then got into a massive school of yellowfin and got 14 as well as two good wahoo. We had to be back at 1pm but still pulled lures for a while and finished the morning with a small Black Marlin around 100 pounds for Craig Edwards…it was everyone’s first billfish!!!

Looking good bru…can’t wait to start chasing the big ladies !!!

Cheers

Duarte
