Hello anglers,

For our 1.5 day trip, we came 120 miles on reports of a few yellowtail on kelps and a few tuna on common dolphin. Unfortunately we didn't find any kelps and found no tuna on dolphin. We ended up going in to the coast to try for some rockfish and fish a little,instead of driving around all day for nothing.

We managed to catch around 80 rockfish, a mixture of red rock cod, ling cod, sheepshead and whitefish.
The weather is calm and I think everyone enjoyed a few hours of fishing.
The offshore scene is still unpredictable and so we are unsure of what we are doing next trip.

Stay tuned,
Capt Art

Plenty of room on some great upcoming trips.

Good evening folks. We successfully made it through a very sloppy night of weather to arrive our destination in the early morning hours. After trolling around for a bit and with only a small handful of wahoo to show for our efforts we decided to drop anchor to get setup for tuna fishing. Not long after we got established in our spot the tuna's started to bite a little bit and this trend would continue throughout the morning. Nice grade of fish too. 40-65 lbs. with a few bigger and a few smaller to round out our already stellar catch of fish. We certainly didn't land everything we hooked and we had some real heartbreaks. Whether it was pulled hooks, chew-off's, or shark related incidents we did lose our share of fish, but that's fishing. Needless to say, we were happy with what we threw in the fish holds this morning. While  doing work on the tuna the wahoo seemed to build up as the day progressed as well and we picked away at them when they rolled on through. Kind of herky-jerky fishing to be honest with you. Does one tie on a wire leader for wahoo and risk the chance of not getting a tuna bite or does one stick with straight mono and risk the chance of landing a wahoo? Either way, we still lost a lot of wahoo and when the tuna bite disappeared we pulled anchor to go take care of some wahoo fishing proper. Marauders, bombs/raiders, and wire leaders. We were ready to roll as were the wahoo and we slowly but surely put a really nice day together on the skins. A real nice grade of fish too. Definitely a few more hoo's from 40-60 lbs were captured today. Breaking it down, we had a very nice day on the skin with a nice mix of tuna to go along with it. We're happy and we couldn't have asked for a better way to end our stay down here. 

When all was said and done, our wahoo honey hole had dried up and we pointed her on-course for yellowtail land to try to not only get in a few hours fishing tomorrow but also to try and avoid the weather that's forcasted. Our weather is currently OK. It could definitely be better but as long as the water pitchers are staying on the dinner table you're not going to hear too much more complaints out of us. We'll be trying for some of those premium yellowtail's to put a lid on the Garry Roberts 9 day trip. We bid you farewell, happy September, and we'll chat with you tomorrow.

Seaforth Landing reporting in as the San Diego on their 3/4 day run has 6 yellowfin on deck to 30 pounds for the 7 anglers and plenty of fishing time left.

The San Diego leaves daily at 5:30.

The catching from the Puerto Morelos area continues to be an interesting mixed-bag of surface and bottom fish that tends to keep the anglers busy throughout the fishing days. Oddly enough, with all of the inclement weather along the Eastern seaboard, it has not had any adverse effect on the greater Puerto Morelos area from Cancun to Cozumel. The overall combined fish count for 14 days fished reflected 11 Atlantic barracuda, 18 bonito, 26 Spanish mackerel, 1 yellowfin tuna, 1 shark, 1 jack cravelle, 1 grouper, 2 triggerfish, 3 snappers and 1 amberjack.

PM Climate:  Mostly cloudy with some scattered showers and temps from 75 nights to 92 daytime highs.

Sea Conditions:  Sea temps holding stable at 85 degrees and calm seas as of this morning with almost no tropical surface breeze.

Best Fishing Area:  No specific area reported but the boats begin fishing within a few minutes of the entrance to the Marina El Cid.

Best Bait/Lure:  Rigged and un-rigged ballyhoo still prevail as the bait of choice for the skippers in this area.

Captain Temo Verboonen reported very unstable conditions throughout the area with rough and windy seas that were not safe for charter fishing. He said only a single commercial boat fished this past week and the skipper reported a few dorado and yellowffin tuna at the 26- mile mark, but also reported the ocean was very rough and lots of wind. "We have a new depression in front of Guerrero State that will probably continue to create unstable sea and weather conditions for this area". Lots of rain, especially at night and a couple of inches are predicted over the next day or two.

IZ Climate:  Partly cloudy to total cloudy days with temps from 72 nights to 89 daytime highs.  Rainy afternoons and nights and windy days.

Sea Conditions:  Very rough and windy and unstable conditions throughout the area with a new tropical depression right out front.

The adverse weather and just the general worldwide economy have had it's overall effect on most of the Pacific coast sportfishing resorts during the latter part of the summer fishing season. This past week reflected 3 port closure days and interruptions to the daily fishing regimen that made it very difficult to get back to finding the fish and better fishing locations. The Aries Sportfishing Fleet reported in for a total of 5 outings over 3 fishing days for the offshore fleet that reflected a smaller blue marlin, (225 lbs. estimated) 1 sailfish, 3 yellowfin tuna and 8 dorado. The inshore fishing for the super pangas reflected limit fishing for dorado for the 2 fishing days with most of the fish in the 10-12 lb. range.

Mazatlan Climate:  Mostly cloudy days with temps from 79 nights to 89 daytime highs and some scattered rain during the nights.

Sea Conditions:  An unstable week for Mazatlan and the surrounding area that reflected rough and windy conditions during the early part of the week and settling to calm and peaceful conditions as the week progressed.  Water temps remained stable at 85-86 degrees

Best Fishing Area:  None reported!

Bait Availability:  Not reported.

The fishing remained pretty good this past week from Cabo San Lucas, and while we had no black or blue marlin caught, there were a few very early releases and about 75% of the boats reported the landing of a billfish. The "Gaviota IV", skippered by Captain Octavio Castillo, had a 3 striper release day on Wednesday, fishing in the 1150 fathom vicinity. The "Gaviota III", sippered by Captain Manuel Castillo, had the only sailfish release for the week and "Tuna Time", skippered by Captain Christian Lopez, reported the only wahoo. The overall combined fish counts for the fleet for 11 days fished reflected 1 sailfish released, 7 stripers released, 1 wahoo, 3 yellowfin tuna and 23 dorado.

Cabo Climate:  Partly cloudy days with temps from 76 nights to 93 daytime highs and a little humid.

Sea Conditions:  Very good on both sides of the peninsula.  Pacific side temps ranged from 82-83 and wrapped the Cape to the Gorda Banks and then rose to 86-87 degrees.  Good, blue water and fishable in all areas.

Best Fishing Area:  The 1150 Fathom spot was the best for stripers but overall, Cabo Falso to Migrino provided the best action.

Best Lure/Bait:  Live bait best for the billfish, albeit, several were attracted on the mackerel colored artificials.  Dorado were scattered about the close to shore areas on the Pacific side and bit the lures and live bait.

Live Bait Supply:  Mostly caballito at the regular $3.00 rate.

The Sepcial checked in this morning loaded up with live squid and went on the hunt. They found a nice area of seabass and managed to put one on the boat. We will see what happens this afternoon.

   976-TUNA GPS Gold Member Mike Price Scores 20 Plus Pound White Seabass at Catalina this morning

Mike Price just checked in and is already having a nice day on the water. "We just caught a 20 plus pound white seabass right on your ( GPS) numbers," said Price. They have also caight and released a huge black seabass. Price will be heading offshore so we wish him continued success today. 

Hello everyone;

Weather continues to be good, with lots of sunshine, clear skies, and just enough breeze to keep the heat down. We started morning looking for Yellows, but their was none to be found. So we made a move to the north, and we started picking away at the Yellows. Most of the fish were in the 12 to 15 pound range.

We made a short move to try our luck at some Calico bass, and we didn't get disappointed. We had a steady bite on the Calico, and one lonely Halibut (about 15 pounds). With the offshore bite not happening, we will give it another try for the Yellowtail tomorrow. So wish us luck, and we will keep you posted on our daily events. The R/p crew.

Grateful

Starting off the day at the bottom end of things gave us the advantage of covering new territory. Not knowing what was off our bow kept the excitement level high. And it wasn't until around 10 o'clock that we found warmer water and sea life - feeling pretty confident that we were in the zone.

After stopping on several different deals of fish, some cooperated and some did not... but lack of fish wasn't the issue! In the end we were very grateful for our 26 yellowfin tuna and beautiful weather.

Today's picture stars Dave and Dave Samarin showing off their quality yellowfin.
Before signing off, we would like to give a very special thanks to Mr. & Mrs. Samarin for putting together another successful year.

The first Striped and Blue Marlin of September
 
The first day of the month and we have excellent updates on today's fishing trips.
Aboard RumRunnin with Captain Javier and Mate Jesus we had Tim and Belinda Irvin from Dallas, Tx who showed up at 6 AM ready to get on that boat and have the time of their lives. Together they reeled in a 20 Lb Dorado (which they will be taking back home on Saturday) and they also caught and released a nice 250 Lbs Blue Marlin.

The first Blue Marlin for the month of September...let's try to C/R Blue Marlins for the rest of the year huh?
These awesome folks decided to head back to our office little early. The sea behaved today, it was nice and smoothe.

We have an awesome day, temperature is 97F and the winds are so calm...PERFECTION!

Last but not least we had Debra McCory and Brett Olsen aboard our 28' Tantrum along with Captain Ramon and Mates Juan and Jesus who together caught an 8ft 9' Stripper! That was big, I saw that fish with my own eyes and I can say it was a trophy fish!
Congrats to these two for working together and making their dream catch come true! We told you RedRum was the right option!!! LOL

Fishing took place by the Gordo Bank, Light House, La Herradura and other banks along the Sea of Cortez side.

Hello everyone;

We arrived to our distention at 10:30 hours. We have excellent weather, with a slight breeze out of the northwest, and sunny. The Yellowtail bite for today was steady. Most of the Yellowtail were in the 15 to 18 pound range, with a few going up-to 25 pounds.

We will make a short move tonight, and give it the old college try tomorrow, so wish us luck. The R/p crew.

Day 2 of the 2 1/2 day was quite different than day1. In yesterdays hot spot there was much more bait up on the surface and the tuna just didn’t want to bite. After several hours of trolling and stopping on small spots of breaking fish that would not bite Mike decided to go looking. Late in the after noon they found a kelp that had some yellows on that wanted to bite and they salvaged 27 fish. The boat will be at the dock in the morning and will be back out on a 6 day in the afternoon. I will be out of town on my annual dove opener hunting trip and will return on Sunday. Wahoo Willey will be doing the posts while I’m off killing birds. Wish me luck and see you on Sunday

It was a great way to finish up the month of August. The yellowtail started first thing and continued throughtout the day. We first started off with that good grade, 16 to 25 pounds, of fish boiling and crashing baits all around the boat.

Then later we changed spots and found some the "premium" will to bite. It was a great all around day at Cedros.

Thank God for Cedros island.
