It is starting out to be a strange September. Hurricane Jimena was a complete miss, and no matter what the media claimed in the States, all we got was about an hour and a half of 20 to 30 knot wind, and zero rain.

Plus, in September even though we historically do not get many clients fishing, we have only been putting 1 or 2 pangas on the water a day for this last two weeks. Nobody really knows how the fishing is, because nobody is fishing.

I was on the municipal pier this morning meeting with client Tod Eason and observed a vacant pier 1st hand. It was kind of strange to not see anybody but an ice vendor, who was sound asleep on a bench, and the woman who sells water and soft drinks to the boat captains.

Tod fished with Cheva on the panga Dos Hermanos II up near the Troncones area. With fly gear, they had shots at three very large roosters, but the roosters did not cooperate. They did get several black skipjack tuna and a dorado.

Keep in mind, if Tod had been conventional gear fishing, that probably would have translated to a catch of three roosters from 40 to 65 pounds, which is a great day anywhere.
