Overall Catch Success Rate 100%
BILLFISH: This past week, every single boat caught at least one fish, unfortunately,
the water is getting a bit too warm for the billfish and we don’t have much to
report about these guys. Also, most of the clients were looking for fish to
take home to eat. “Valerie” released the only striped marlin of the week for
Cooper Hogg from San Angulo TX, 3 small sailfish were caught, unfortunately,
only one was released. “Great Escape Jr caught a 180lbs blue marlin for Matt
Ward from Walnut Creek, CA. Most of the catches were at the Pacific side at the
Golden Gate bank.
OTHER CATCHES: Yellow fin tuna was the best catch this week, with 85% of the boats
catching these babies. They are still at the football size stage but they are catching
them in good numbers. There were some really nice catches; “Rebecca” caught 16
tunas between 16 to 18lbs for Randy Newton from Aller TX. “Tracy Ann” went
ahead and caught 23 for Thomas & Deborah Moertl from Wauwatosa WI. We
thought that was going to be the catch of the week, but then “Rebecca” catches
29 for Walter Coy from Texas, we are thinking, ok, this guy is going to get the
catch of the week, but no!, Captain Julio Castro and the “Tracy Ann” sure love
to be the highlight of the reports, they made Angus Wear from the UK, fight 33
tunas with an average weight of 20 to 25lbs. A total of 380 tunas were caught
this week, the major part of them were released. Dorado slowed down quite a bit
as well because of the warm water, only 30% of the boats caught dorado. “Yahoo”
caught a very nice 45lbs wahoo for birthday girl Cassy Caldwell from Dallas TX.
