    Default la Ventana Alive and doing well

    Well today was the last day for this group and all the species were on the chew. There were many more fish caught than I have photo's for. I'm trying to collect all the photo's before they leave in the morning. Dorado or one dorado was caught in Muertos bay, lot's of dorado around the lighthouse, nothing around Punta Gorda and Las Cruces. But I bet the dorado are there but just need to be in the right spot and the right time. The group coming in tomorrow should have a good week, especially since the dorado are on the chew

    Here's a few photo's some from today, some from a couple days ago


    Lot's of jacks swimming around the lighthouse, some up to 25/30lbs


    Chicken dorado caught in Muertos Bay


    Rooster caught today at the lighthouse - 30lbs+


    This is a first... Rick hooked the jack on a fly and had roosters swimming close to the boat. He threw a conventional rod at the jack and doubled up. Fought both at the same time. A little crank here and a little crank there


    Richard & Steve, not doing what you think... They have a double hook up


    Here's Richard's rooster


    Front shot of rooster

    Hopefully more shots to follow. Till then

    Adios

    Nice fish, though the handling on that last one leaves a lot to be desired. You can see the guy's thumb touching the gills. I am sure you are typically more careful, but stay vigilant! The fish will thank you by being alive to catch again.
