Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tunas, Roosterfish, Cubera Snappers

Well, I couldn’t wait to write about last week’s fishing. Inshore is definitely at its best. One boat finished on Friday with 9 Roosterfish releases and a giant Cubera Snapper, and that’s just one boat. The others crews also scored really well. We had a lot to talk about at the dinner table….. A couple of guests also had action offshore with Black Marlin Blue Marlin and Sailfish.More Sailfish are showing up; definitely a good sign and I expect that they’ll be here in big numbers soon. Yellowfin Tunas and BIG Dorados are also patrolling the trash lines further offshore. I suspect more anglers will want to try their hand at the Roosterfish next week and we’ll be happy to have the lines stretched by these monsters of the rocks.

Mark Griffin released is first PACIFIC BLUE MARLIN estimated at 300 lbs. Carol Schorr released a BLACK MARLIN and a BLUE MARLIN this week. Reed Simmons had a shot at his first 110 lb PACIFIC SAILFISH and got a release. Rob Perine also scored his first PACIFIC SAILFISH, a big one, estimated at 120 lbs. Terry Zimmerman also released his first PACIFIC SAILFISH.

Alain Duquuesnoy, Francoise Boutrand and Andre de Botton had an unforgettable trip. The concentrated on the inshore fishing and really racked up the numbers. Together they caught 12 Roosterfish (a few in the 60+ range), 8 Cubera Snappers, 16 Yellowfin Tunas, 10 Dorados, 4 Groupers and a big Amberjack and a host of various groupers and jacks. 

Angelo Milanese, Anthony Milanese, John Knief and Robert Perine were also here fishing 2 boats for 4 days. They finished with 13 Roosterfish, 8 Cubera Snappers, 25 Yellowfin Tunas and more.
