Mexico Fishing
We have been fishing in Puerto Vallarta Mexico since the late 90's and at the start  of 2010 I was lucky enough to venture out and see what
other parts of Mexico fishing that I have been missing out on.
The last 2 years I have been fortunate enough to fish all over Mexico  We fished 11  Marlin tournaments taking home 7 trophies  and a Mexico
fishing experience of a lifetime. the teams 1st win was 2010 in Sinaloya Topolabampo Mexico the fishing was great lots of big striped Marlins
averaging 130 lbs but the final day of the tournament We caught the a huge blue Marlin that almost beat the Tournament record coming 4 lbs
short. August 2010 We won 2nd place home here at the La Cruz Nayarit with a 295 lb Marlin We also fished the November Tournament and
released 3 sailfish. Start of 2011 We headed out to Barra de Navidad this was the 1st Tournament I had ever participated in out of Puerto
Vallarta in 2010 and did not place so it was very important to captain Steve to turn things around in 2011 the big prize in Barra is Team points
and We won 1st place with more then 1,000 pts above 2nd team releasing 4 striped Marlins and 12 Mahi mahi's it was definetly a great way to
start off Our Mexico fishing adventure in 2011. June 2011 We Hit San Blas for the 51st annual billfish tournament and caught the biggest fish
to date 517 lbs breaking the 19 year old record. July 2011 We were back in La Cruz and the Team did it again this time with a 335 lb blue
Marlin After La Cruz we packed up the boat and headed to Los Cabos for black and blue bissbee's Tournament  We did not place but We
caught alot of Marlin and it was a great trip November 2011 We were back at Home in Puerto Vallarta at the 56th annual Marlin and Sailfish
Tournament and the 2nd day caught a 481 lb black Marlin to take 1st place at home. Enjoy Our Mexico Tournament fishing video's and full

tournament held in Topolobampo Sinaloa Mexico, catching the
largest Marlin since 1997 6 lbs short of the tournament record
415 lbs! The blue beast was caught with the first 50 wt Tiburon
Reels on the Market custom made for Captain Steve, with 130
lb IGFA Spectra and a 100 yards of top shot 100 lb Mono Philament
Diamond Momoi. She bit a live Skip Jack trolling a little before 1 pm.
We fished 2 days before the tournament learning the fishing
grounds. The first morning Captain Steve found a nice structure at
the bottom of the ocean perfect for big Marlin fishing 4 miles
west of the farallon rock so We decided to fish that area with live bait
the whole tournament. The first day of the We released 3 striped  
Marlins struck gold I mean blue.
