GUATEMALA OFFSHORE REPORT FROM CAPT. EDGAR

After a nice Guatemala Winter that was full of surprises - with the Strike Zone and the Jacpot catching Dorado's, Marlins and Sails - we are preparing for the "High Season" in Guatemala that begins in October.

Sailfish Season starts in October and goes through

May 2010 and as Marlin Magazine cover page said - the

blue & black suit boys hit the Guatemala coasts too -making it the NEW hot place for Marlin as well.

Strike Zone was our first boat to start the season

fishing with our friends Jose Alonzo, Salatiel

Barragan, and Javier Rosales from Mexico this

past Tuesday and it was SWEET! We headed out

at 7 am from Marina Pez Vela as usual and by 8:15 the lines were in the water.

Imagine 7 straight hours fishing!!! WOW between

Dorado's and Sails our friends had a complete

workout. The total count was 6 sails and 15 dorado's - not a bad day at all....

Today was a nice day too - 5 Sails and 1 blue

around 250 pounds. The Marlin - really makes

the day worth it. Just looking at how fast they are and

how he hit the KONA was incredible. The

adrenaline was HIIIIIIIGHHHH!!! Sails were around

the 100 pounds and with 3 dorado's to share the day they had a tasty ceviche was soooo nice! Our friends

from Guatemala and two Americans were having fun

watching those sails jump around. Remember that

catch n release fishing with circle hook makes a

fantastic show to watch.

Come and join us and get to know this wonderful

country full of energy and warm people that will

make your trip worth every minute. Keep tight and

ready because the action is just starting.

Thanks Capt. Edgar for the report. I will be in Guatemala

from Oct 12 to 17 and hope to tag a few Sails.

We still have four spots open for the November trip when you can be a fishing star along with host Mike Lane and rodnreelTV show. Give me a call at 225-279-3800 or Capt Danny Pate a call at 225-205-3766.

LOUISIANA OFFSHORE REPORT : The fishing has been good when the weather let's us get out...The Big Yellowfin are starting to show up and the Blackfin are everywhere. October is a super month....I know football is in the air but on the STRIKE ZONE TOO you won't miss any games even when you or out in the Gulf 100 miles....sit back after bring in a 100+ lb Yellowfin and turn to your favorite game on our 48 inch TV in the AC with a cool beer and wait until the captain yells out "FISH ON"""..... A 50 yard line set an a fighting chair...a remote control with a football game on and a ice cold beer ......What more does a man need..........
