MORE PHOTOS & HIGHLIGHTS FROM MEXICO 2016


Last season the waters of Isla Mujeres had good concentrations of bait and plenty of sailfish around, most days we had good fishing within 10 -12 miles of the island... the only problem was in all the years I have fished down there, I have never seen the quantity of false albacore, aka bonitos, aka boneheads..... some days there were 5 miles of them... often we start out with good sail fishing, but around noon if not sooner, here come the boneheads, and that would shut down the sailfishing for a few hours..... we caught over 500 this season, but would have caught many more were it not for the boneheads!


FEB 16 & 17: RUSTY GARRETT & HIS CREW CAUGHT 44 SAILFISH WITH US IN TWO DAYS, INCLUDING OUR SEASONS BEST 31 THEIR SECOND DAY!
