PISCES FISH REPORT AUGUST 4th to 10th, 2012



Overall Catch Success Rate 97.77%

BILLFISH: Thought last week was good? Well, 2% better overall but when it comes to marlin count, this week was awesome. 75% of the boats returned with at least one marlin released, a total of 95 striped marlin were caught, 93 were released, plus 3 pacific sailfish and a blue marlin released as well.
Catches averaged 1 or 2 striped marlin per boat but you know that’s just not enough for some of our guys, Captain Ricardo Agundez released 4 striped marlin for Jayce McMhahon’s party from Keller TX aboard the Great Escape Jr. On August 5th, Adriana released 5 stripeys for Kieran Meaney from Sydney Australia, and the same day, celebrity Captain Julio Castro released 9 stripeys for Ross Donahue & James Connelly from Spearman, TX, followed by Captain J.R. Alucano aboard the Rebecca with 5 striped marlin for Jim Olstad from Canada. Next day, again Captain Julio gets the catch of the day with 8 striped marlin released for Ron, Elizabeth, Alexandra and Christopher Eckhoff from Irving TX plus 2 20 lbs dorado for a nice supper. Captain Enrique Martinez aboard Adriana released 2 striped marlin and 2 pacific sailfish for Matt Tabbert from Dallas TX. Dr. Rick Walsh released a blue marlin estimated at 350 lbs aboard the Tracy Ann with Captain Julio Castro and mate Martin, these guys are on fire!

OTHER CATCHES: Tuna catch slowed down a little bit by the number of fish caught, still 58% of the boats caught an average of 4 fish. La Brisa with Captain Rey Winkler wins the catch of the week with 19 tunas, 4 striped marlin and 2 dorados for Van, Haddon and Duncan Alford from Lexington KY. Dorado on the other hand was a hoot, 90% of the boats caught at least 2 dorados with an average weight of 18 to 20 lbs, however, 17 year old Landon Tabor from Duluth GA wanted to make it to our Facebook page and landed a very nice 61 lb’er aboard C-Rod with Captain Abel Ramirez.

Stephen Passy's 35lbs Dodo caught aboard the Great Escape Jr, Captain Ricardo Agundez on the left with the white shirt.

BEST LURES: Billfish were mostly caught on live bait (caballito), tunas were more interested on cedar plugs and dorado on yellow, purple and green lures.
