Fish report Pacific Fins Guatemala feb 4 2013

Fishing has been very good the last 7-10 days. During that time frame our high was 33 raises with 25 releases. Some interesting things of late were a Striped marlin release and a Quad release (4 sailfish caught and released at the same time)!

Here are a few highlights from the last week

David & Michael Martin returned for the 5th year in a row. Also joining them was Ron Woodruff. Fishing 2 days on Maverick, they raised 36 sailfish, had 33 bites and released 24. They also released 1 Striped marlin!

Gary Reichart, Rick Jarrett, and Tony Bailey arrived for 4 days fishing. In 3 days so far on Maverick they have raised 38 sailfish, had 35 bites and released 25. The first day they released 4 sails at the same time (a Quad)!

Johnny & Stacey Powers arrived for their yearly trip with us. Fishing on Gypsy so far in 3 days they have raised 42 sailfish, had 34 bites and released 24. They also raised 1 Blue marlin.

Guatemala 25,000th Billfish released

 Congratulations to our friend Capt. Brad Philipps who released his 25,000th Billfish 

. Mate Kenny Hernandez has been in the cockpit with Capt. Phillips for most of these fish when he was on the Pelagian and then the last eight seasons on the Decisive. While the majority of the billfish he has caught are Sailfish, Capt. Brad has fished in both the Atlantic and the Pacific releasing Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, Striped Marlin, White Marlin, Swordfish and Spearfish for his clients.

What a great accomplishment! Here is to another 25,000!
