Fishing report Feb 17th thru Feb 23th we had a full lodge with Charlie Helmer group, Charlie, Leann, Joe, Amanda, John, Jody and Sam and King Cunningham group, King, Mary, Ivonne, and Carl from Alabama. Fishing has been great with 15 to 30 raises a day sails being typical.
On the 19th, I took all the ladies in Charlie´s group on the Stragos, King´s group fished in the Furioso and the guys from Charlie´s group fished the Monkey Business. We had a little calcutta to making it fun. I cried the night before as we were planning this min tournament that I was going to be at real disadvantage as the ladies did not have nearly the experience of the guys I was fishing against. 
I knew I was sandbagging them as women typically listen much better than men and I knew I was going to be in the cokpit with them as Captain Jimmy Fajardo was going to be at the helm. We won with one 300 pound blue marlin, 05 sailfish and 01 big Dorado. The ladies did a great job! The only real errors on our team were committed by me as I missed 4 sailfish consecutively and then topped it off with a sancocho big Dorado. By the end of the day I was back in practice but have decided I should keep my hand on the wheel and let my young quick mate keep the hooking the fish. Yesterday the Monkey Business raised 16, hooked 13 and released 10. The Furious raised 28 and released 15.

We have date in late march and early April.  Please call me directly at 305-735-2387

Jeff Ciuba, Kent Lipton, Rober Byrum, Eric Cox, Tom McCaskill and David Daybenspeck all of them from Murrells Inlet, South Carolina  fished 3 days Jan 26th thru 29th on the Monkey Business and Furioso with captains Marcial, Joel and Chino, mates Danilo and Chente. They raised 124 sails and released 83 as well as 5 rooster fish.
The fishing has been about 4 to 6 miles out!  Yesterday I went looking for Dorado. We blew past the fleet fishing again at about six miles on board was mate Danilo and a local friend Tucker. We found a log flooting at 27 miles. We landed 11 big Dorado and I had a real thrill when a 500 pound blue marling ate a 25 pound Dorado right next to the boat! He made shout of me on my TLD 25 but it was worth the show. He did a complete circle around the boat in less than 30 seconds before cutting the line with his tail.
We have plenty of open dates in March and April and a few in February
Hope to see you soon.

CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR
Fishing was fantastic! Me & My wife Susy were joined by Troy of Troy Marine & Ryan Cipolla for a Fabulous Christmas & New Year. We threw 2 parties for needy Kids. The First was on Christmas & was at our house in the Mountains of Zacapa. Susy’s sister had written up invitations for 50 poorest Kids in the local village. 100 showed up, the pictures tell the story. This was the only Christmas present most of these Kids received. Well me and Troy had brought enough presents for 100 Kids as we planned the same type of party on New Years eve at the Lodge. So no one got left out in the mountains but we were off to Escuintla to buy 100 more for the Lodge Party. At both parties we served Cake, busted a big Piñata and gave each child a present. It was awesome!
Marlin Fishing was really hot w/ most boats getting multiple shots daily. We hooked a couple but couldn’t seal the deal. Released plenty of sails & stacked big Dorado like cord wood. 
Friends welcome.
