Hey Ladybow and Dabow! Sorry, I forgot all about this thread.

Our trip was awesome!!!!!! We chartered a boat named, "The Reel Tequila". The captain's name slips me right now, but he and the deckhand were great! We were probably never more than 10 miles off the coast. My buddy had our 1st hook-up about a mile off the "Arch". A striped marlin. We ended up with two striped marlin, two dorado, and twonice wahoo!

Here's my baby stripe that I had a blast catching!

This was a stripe that absolutely would not hit a bait or lure no matter what we tried. He finally came beside us like this and gave us a little show before he disappeared! It was very cool to see him play with us the way he did!

WOW! What a trip! We had a blast and can't wait to go back. It would be nice to meet up with some HuntingNet friends in Cabo one day if possible.

I hope that hurricane didn't do TOO MUCH damage down there! Looks like Cabo took a hit right on the chin!

Oh yeah! We stayed at the "Melia Cabo San Lucas". VERY NICE!!!! I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Before y'all go, PM me for more details and tips.

Good Luck!

BTW, What is a "Team 3"? Don't you mean Team 23?? I know dabow had "big buck" last year, BUT it's all new for 06! (just a little friendly trash)

Looks like a great trip and great pics too. Thanks for the PM. Will keep in mind if we get to go in late winter/spring.
