Hola once agian
to all my fishing buddies
On this day
we departed from the Marina vallarta at 7:00 am and headed to the Marietas islands. About half mile from the Marietas we ran into a big school of
sardines where captian Hector started casting with a castmaster and we landed a
couple of 5 lb bonitas to put in the Tuna tubes for use later on the big
roosters that are near the Marietas and also El morro island. We continued just
past las Marrietas and started trolling with luhres and landed about 5 sierra
in the 12lb range.
Things got slow for a while so moved back to the marietas and
started using the big eye live bait just dropping the lines in the shallower
areas of the island and quicky started landing small african pompanos! 4 in
total in the 5 to 8 lb range. Then we proceeded to change our bait to the bonitas we had previously caught and had in our tuna tubes.
This was the end of
our 8 hour trip and was full of excitement as we landed our first big
roosterfish. My friend Kathy from Colorado started fighting the fish for 10 minutes in she was done so husband David took over and brought the rooster
in 25 minutes later for a total fight of 35 minutes. The weight was a good 55
lbs. We ended up landing one more big rooster weighing about 35lbs. All in all
we had another successful trip with captain Hector. So if your comming down to
visit Puerto Vallarta don't forget to contact us here at Charlys. You can pre book online or just drop
in and pay us a visit. So until next time.
Your
fishing buddy
