Hello everybody... I have had some luck getting reports back from some people as I am packing my bags to head down. I also got some pics of the huge Dorado that was recently caught and some pics from my brother and dad, who also fished last week on the Precedent.
I talked to Jerry recently and he said that fishing is going pretty well offshore. His boats landed two Marlin last week!
I have not heard from most of the boats, but I did hear that the family did really well on the Precedent. They fished three days in a row and had great days all three.
The first day was full of six 40-50lb Yellowfin Tuna and a Sailfish. Day two was an inshore day. They released 3 Roosterfish during a full day off the shore of Domincal. And the third day they missed three Sails at the beginning of the day, trolled for another three hours to no avail, so they decided to stop trolling for a while and drop lines. They hooked up good on the bottom, bringing in some nice Red Snapper and some big Amberjack before calling it a day.
The best part of the trip was that some of our Tico friends got to come on the boat that live in fishing paradise but rarely get a chance to fish. One of the guys, Harvey, is a cab driver around town and his dad is a diesel mechanic for a bunch of boats in Quepos. And between the Tuna on the first day and the Red Snapper and the Amberjack the second day, there was plenty of fillets to go around. My family made plenty of people happy for their "Semana Santa" (holy week) celebrations with the gift of fresh fish!
