Our last customers left yesterday as we spit polish the place the month of October to reopen November 1st. Dave Stanley and Bob Wicks fished 2 1/2 days and spent a half day hiking in the jungle. Day one brought a 240 lb blue marlin while they raised 3 more that did not care to eat. This happened under a small log as the marlin teamed up to corral a school of small tuna. They added a 35 lb dorado which went very nicely with garlic and butter. Day two was the day for a tug-o-war. They landed and released a 250 lb yellowfin tuna in just over two hours and boated an 80 pounder to eat.
Roosterfish kept them busy on the half day. Most were around 30 lbs.
