WEEKLY FISH COUNT
STRIPED MARLIN: 5 FISH RELEASED, THREE TAGGED
DORADO: THREE FISH KEPT
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR JANUARY 11, 2004
Today was the third of three days for Larry, Ed, John and Chris. If you remember
from last weeks report, yesterday they saw 11 marlin, had three take the bait and only
hooked one fish, and that one got away fairly quickly. Today was a little different.
They did not see quite so many Marlin, but that may have been because they spent so
much time fighting them! Making a long story short, it looks like John is going to have
to come back to Cabo, as he was the only angler to not get a Marlin today. There was
also a nice Dorado caught also and when they came into he Marine that one yellow flag
set the Blue and Red flags off nicely! Thanks guys, we sure are glad that the fish
finally bit for you! Looking forward to seeing you guys again and meanwhile, keep your
lines tight!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR JANUARY 12, 2004
Eric Fyksen and David Goetz had been walking around the Marina the day before
yesterday and had gotten to talking with Larry, Ed, John and Chris when they had
gotten in. Eric and David decided to book the “Fly Hooker” for today based upon the
reports from the guys. Now, Eric and David have never been fishing on the ocean like
this before, they are from Montana and are used to stream and lake fishing. What an
experience! When they returned to the dock they were pretty tired but that was
because it was a first time experience. Both of them were able to fight a Striped Marlin
to the boat for a successful tag and release, and both of them were able to get a
Dorado into the fishbox, giving them meat to take home. Juan said that there were a
few more Dorado lost as well. Now the guys are spoiled and they are going to think
that every trip offshore should be as successful as todays! Thanks guys, we know you
will have good memories of this trip!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 16 JANUARY, 2004
Dave and three buddies are here for a wedding and they were supposed to fish
yesterday. Well, all the rain we had on Tuesday and Wednesday had the wedding
postponed until yesterday so we were able to push the fishing trip back to today. Well,
it was a wedding, and at wedding here in Cabo you drink, and when they showed up at
the boat Dave said he was pretty sure they were still drunk because otherwise they
would have had hangovers! Hmm, I don’t think the drinking and the fishing mixed to
well for the guys because according to Juan and Manuel, two of them got almost
violently ill, trying very hard to chum some fish to the boat. They were able to hook up
two Dorado when they were about 17 miles to the south of the lighthouse, but they
decided to come in after that. Back at the Marina at 11:15 all they wanted to do was
get back to their resort. I sure wish they had been able to go back with some fish, but
hey, that’s the way it goes sometimes! Better luck next time, and keep away from the
tequila the night before!
