Slack on reports

Sorry for the slack reports, we have been busy with back to back to back tournaments. How'd we do? Not bad, but nothing "epic" . Anna hooked and landed a blue marlin and a sailifsh in the Los Suenos Ladies Tournament. We did OK in the Quepos Rock Start tournament conisdering that we were beat out by local knowledge and way out of position.

In the Los Suenos Triple Crown that finished Leg 1 yesterday we did really good as a team, landing 28 of the 30 sailifish that we hooked with zero misses. Also 100% on blue marlin bites, just didn't catch enough of those 500 point fish, landing only one of the three that came in the spread. Either of those window shoppers would have put us on the podium. Really proud of the way we fished.

Charter fishing has been mixed. Kind of tough with the billifish, still almost daily shots at marlin and a handful of sails on most days, others a little more and some days less. Some dorado around and the tunas have saved a lot of days. All in all, we've been making it happen.

hero or zero

With this many marlin around, it's easy to have an amazing day like I did on the Dragin Fly two days ago, releasing 2 blue marlin out of a couple more bites with a dorado for dinner.
Earlier in the week we had another 2 blue marlin day plus some really nice tunas.

Yesterday it was a giant stinky skunk, jumping off our marlin and both sailfish.

They're still coming back and fishing with us again tomorrow, maybe we can catch two days worth of fish in one day.
