If you’ve been following our fishing reports, then you know May has been outstanding. The proof is in the numbers! In May we hosted 125 charters. The total, just for May, is 2,287 raises, 1,843 bites, and 1,138 sailfish releases, that’s 18 raises per day on average! To make May even sweeter is the mixed plate of species including Blue Marlin with 142 raises, 111 bites, and 55 marlin releases, 180 Yellowfin Tuna, and 502 Mahi Mahi! Join us in June to keep the catching going!

We would like to give THREE big shout outs! First, to the Segal group for breaking Guatemalan Record with seven Blue Marlin RELEASES in one day aboard the Finest Kind. Second, to the Edwards group for getting two GRAND SLAMS aboard the Release. And last but not least, to Michael and Craig for making their maiden voyage to Casa Vieja!
