Quite a surprise, but wahoo are still on the chew! Happy amigo, Fernando Sucre, pictured above from the San Francisco Bay area, was able to get in one day of fishing and scored this tasty wahoo near Cerralvo Island. The presence of wahoo has been a great treat so late in the season.

Recently retired amigo, Tim Zimmer, Photo #1 has been making the most of his free time fishing his brains out all over the country. He and his wife always make a point of visiting us in December and always do well. We had a great week of marlin fishing with most of them getting released. Check out Captain Jorge and Tim's nice billfish.

Ken Gragg, Photo #2 is another of our frequent amigos. This is his 3rd trip this year, and in 2 days fishing this week with Captain Gerardo scored 4 wahoo! This one seems to be missing it's nose, but it's a big fish. Captain Gerardo is NFL lineman-sized guy!

Check out the roosterfish! In December!!! What's up with that? Steve Medley, Photo #3 got in two days of fishing and scored this trophy roosterfish just off the beach to take a great photo and release the fish to fight again! It's been the best roosterfish season in years!

Another bucket list fish! Prof. Mark Marcus, Photo #4 came to visit us from Washington also popped a big rooster this week. He's kinda struggling with the hot fish to take the photo, but it's a sweet fish and was released after the photo! He also got a wahoo as well! See the photo below! Some great fishing!

DOUBLE 'HOO! Professor Llew Williams from Florida and Professor Mark Marcus, Photo #5 from Washington tag teamed for this double billing of wahoo off Cerralvo Island this past week. They took chunks back to our Tailhunter Restaurant for some great eats! Nicely done!

Chris and Damon Lewis, Photo #6 are brothers who met up in La Paz for some fishing. Chris is from Mexico City and Damon lives in Redwood City near San Francisco. Yes! There's still dorado in our waters. Normally, warm water fish, they're still lingering in surprising numbers!
