GUATEMALA LAST DAY FOR THE HAKE GROUP
THE CAPS LOCK MUST BE ON FOR MY COMPUTER TO TYPE NOW. SORRY
FISHING WAS DECENT FOR THE LAST DAY ON THE FURIOUS. WE STARTED OUT BY MISSING A NICE BLUE MARLIN AND THEN CATCHING A SINGLE SAIL. THE FISH BROUGHT ALONG A GUEST. SO WHEN CAPT MARCIEL SAID THERE IS A SAILFISH WITH IT TIM THREW OUT ANOTHER BAIT. THE OTHER SAIL TURNED OUT TO BE A LITTLE BLUE OR A STRIPEY. THE FIST CIRCLE TIMS BAIT FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES BUT WOULDN'T COMMIT. WE PULLED AWAY A FEW TIME TO TRY AND GENERATE A BITE BUT NO GO. FINALLY GOT THE OTHER SAIL TO THE BOAT AS THE WINDS BEGAN TO KICK UP.
WE THEN CAUGHT THREE MORE SINGLES AND A DOUBLE AS THE WINDS AND SEAS BEGAN TO GET REALLY DICEY. WE DECIDED THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION WAS A LONG TROLL HOME (lth) INSTEAD OF KILLING OURSELVES IN THE BUILDING SEAS. WE TROLLED ALL THE WAY TO THE 2 MILE MARK WITH ONLY A WAHOO BITE BUT STILL AN INCREDIBLE DAY.

The fishing in Guatemala, the sailfish Capital of the world is not only hot for sails but also for marlin.
A four person group staying at Buena Vista Sportfishing Lodge this week released 38 sails and were 3 of 4 on Blue Marlin in just 3 days of fishing. One day in the past couple of weeks with only 5 boats fishing they released 5 Marlin in one day.

Captain Marcial raised 3 marlins and released one blue 400 pounds. He was 3 for 5 on sails and topped it off with two Dorado of 30 & 40 lbs. We were 0 for 0 or roosters on the Furioso as we listened to the action unfold 20 miles offshore.

Who is the FURIOSO
Today I joined Jeff Ciuba and Kent Lipton, we went 45 miles west on the Furioso run by Captain Chino (Rossman Fajardo ) and mate Danilo Fajardo, we left the duck at 07.30 am and got to The fishing spot around 09:45 am our 1rst. Sailfish came 15 minutes later and it was hooked by Jeff.

We had a total of 09 sailfish Raised and bites and 07 releases, we also had 02 double bites but in one of this double bite on line cut the other, so we lost the fish.
At 02:00 pm when we were getting ready to head back Capt Chino saw a Marlin jumping and all of us said Lets go for it, and so we did, the marlin ate a little bite of bit on one hook and we lost it but just 1 minute after he went and ate the whole sierra mackarel, it was on Kent´s tackle. After Kent fighting with the marling for about 1 hour the Marlin wanted to show us who was the FURIOSO (FURIOUS) Jeff was sit on the left side of the boat close to the motor and the marlin jumped over the motors way, and jumped in the boat breaking the back of a bench and also making with the bill on Jeff´s bally a small scrape. As he jumped in Jeff jumped out backward.
Jeff is the faster man I have never seen jumping to the water.
The marlin hard hurt itself when breaking the bench on the way in to the boat and we did not have another option that bringing it to the lodge.
This was excellent day; we had to run for around 2 hours, the water was blue, no wind, no big waves.
