Double Digit Releases!!
Fishing is hot!! Today angler Paul Gerlach and Capt. Arch released 21 Sailfish! Thirty Nine releases in two days is a great way to start the year! These fish were on balls of bait today while the birds picked away for their share, a pretty site to see in the clear waters there. Nice Job guys! Keep it up!!
January 19-Excellent Day
Paul Gerlach’s first day and they released eighteen (18) Sail Fish. I should add that he is solo and this is an incredible accomplishment for anyone! Great team work guys! This is how memories are made! Arch reported that the weather is typical of Mexico and the Sails are very active but not out of reach….but then again, Arch would go to the end of earth to find the fish. I’m looking forward to another great report this evening.
January 18 – Mexico Report
With two anglers on the Keen M and a short day, Capt. Arch was still able to accumulate seven released sailfish for this couple. Weather is holding out well and there have been great reports of double digit releases. I’m looking forward to hearing about our good friend Paul Gerlach and his experience with Arch today. Stay tuned to our reports, I speak with the captain nightly. Exciting fishing going on!
Mexico!
The bite is HOT!!! Another five on fly yesterday. We are back to trolling and expecting double digit releases! Sounds like everyone is having a great time!!
Another Great Fly Fishing Day!!
Plenty of sails around! Arch put the crew on the sails while Mike Stough and his crew successfully released seven on fly!
Weather is beautiful, sailfish are bountiful, sounds like the perfect fishing adventure. A few days are available if you’re interested in getting in on the great action. Jan 15-17. It’s never too late to be spontaneous!
Mexico Sail Fishing
Arch’s first day at the helm of the Keen M was a success! Mike Stough released four of seven hooked Sailfish on FLY!! Not an easy task!! Arch reported seeing “alot” of sails today along with the boats trolling seeing twenty plus! Weather and fishing came together nicely for them today, looking forward to doing again tomorrow. Way to go Mike and Arch!!
