Flamingo, CR report

Flamingo, CR report
I was visited today by an old friend, Fred DeRewal and his son. Fred
and I go way back to when he owned Villas Pacifica and I was with
PanAngling. Fred and his son sold the Villas last year, but retained
the five boats, including the Scorpion - 58ft Bertram. This boat
and Good Dog stay in Flamingo; the Bad Dog will be moving
down to Carrillo for the winter; and Mad Dog and Crazy Dog will be running out of Quepos.

Admittedly, these two reports are late:

October 8, 2007 - "Fishing is a little slow, but if you want to do some
inshore fishing it's fair or compared to Florida or New Jersey I think you
can consider the fishing here pretty good. Bad Dog went fishing up at the Bat
Islands and landed 8 nice wahoo to 45lbs. She also had 12 dorado and 3
small tunas and she came back early, not bad for a Sunday morning.
Crazy Dog fished the Catalina Island yesterday with 4 wahoo and
12 yellowfin tunas . The tuna is 25 to 35 lbs. We have always said
October is our slowest month, but as you can see it's not that slow.
The fishing south is very slow, the boys in Quepos tell us the rain is
so hard that boats are not going out. The same down in Golfito. The
good news is in just four more weeks the rain will be gone."

October 3. 2007 - "Bad weather, a lot of rain. Cheryl James from Upper
Black Eddy, PA went bottom fishing on the good dog yesterday and
brought back 4 nice red snapper 20 to 25 lbs. Crazy Dog did just
as good on snapper in the morning and then went a little off shore and
landed 5 nice dorado, the largest about 50lbs. With the rain nobody
wanted to go the next 10 to 12 miles looking for marlin, but we know
they are there."

The 31ft "Dog" boats charter for $975/day; The Scorpion charters for
$2,000 per day. Charter prices includes all trolling tackle, bait, boat
crew and lunches.

Hey Al

Funny how different things can be so close, October is a great month for us in El Salvador, lots of mahi, some yellowfin and the Blues are definitely around. Luckily we dont have the rain problems like in CR, when we have rain it is light showers in the afternoon.
