Trish and Tim Harris

Thanks to Trish and Tim Harris for these wonderful photos on Board Ursula IV, they fished with us last Sept. 21st, 22nd, 24th and 25th.
the images tell us how well they did on board.

Fishing Report today (More fish than Fishermen's)

Weather Forecast Today: Sunny


Fishing Conditions in Cabo, Fishing Areas and best Catch:
Edward Maranian and friends on board Ursula III those unable to leave on Tuesday for bad weather but they changed their trip for today with Captain Antonio and caught one Yellowfin Tuna approximately 15 miles out of "Old Light House".

Jim Hogan and son from Los Angeles CA. for second year on board Ursula IV with Captain Ricardo (Kava) releasing one Striped Marlin in front to "Sand Hills" about (8 miles out approximately).

(Wait their photos)

Most used was Live bait.

Today there were not many Anglers out, Captain Antonio have contact with us all day long and he says it almost did not hear anyone in the radio frequency, because only a few boats are fishing at the same area,
most of reservations were changed to the weekend, Airlines also were affected by bad weather but reported full flights for the next days.


We wish luck to all.
