Cabo fishing tournament

[MarkS]

For anyone that might be thinking of going to Cabo this October. I got involved in this last year and it was a blast. I managed to get Kingfish involved as he had posted on here that he was going to Cabo for his anniversary, so I PM'd him and said hey, ya wanna, and he said if the boss lets me! We ended up in second place and just missed winning the can coozy by a couple of Dorado, $hit! Anyway if any one is going to be down there around then or of they want to flex their schedule a little, it is guaranteed fun, with lots of fluids. Looks like $20 per head to get in! Boats are roughly $500 per day all inclusive through Redrum charters!

Trip Advisor 2nd Annual Black & Green Fishing Tournamnet!
I cannot convey how much fun this event was last year, or how a bunch of people who had never met before managed to enjoy each others company for 3 days, plus countless individual gatherings. If you are at all considering this, or feel unsure if this is for you, don't hesitate to personal message me or any other of the forum charcters that participate in this post. It is really more like a social gathering where 80% of the people fished. Not to mention the fact that you are in Cabo and it is all part of the Cabo spirit! A sleepy little drinking village, with a fishing problem!
The 2008 Trip Advisor 2nd annual Black & Green fishing tournament is a bragging rights only, fun for all men and women, event that is to be held October 6 & 7 2008.

[Kingfish]

What he said, it was a hoot!

Didn't know a soul before that weekend, made a lot of new friends.

This year looks to be a larger group.

Never saw so many Stripe Marlin in my life. They were surfing the swells, flashing under the swin step all lite up. We had doubles going several times. The Marlin were chasing bait balls all over the Golden Gate Bank. All bill fish were released, some of the Dorado were released some were served for dinner!

If anyone thinks they would like to join in contact Mark or myself.
