October started pretty scary in the Northeast of PR. Big fire at Sea Lovers Marina made us go on a state of emergency. Boats were taken out of slips and thank to God nobody was hurt. Big losses two boats were down (Bertram 46 and Chris Craft 45). the fire came as close as one slip from ours.
The Fishing is definitely transition to winter time and winter species. After the hot bite of the September moon, the October moon came down slow. Club Deportivo del Oeste Light Tackle blue marlin tournament had a slow bite. Not as many boats as past years. The winning boat raised 9 fish Released 4 fish in three days of fishing. Many boats never saw a fish in the three days.
In the other hand the Mahi Mahi started to arrive also some wahoo and yellowfin tuna. Also plenty of cudas in the shallows on the way out to the trench.
tight lines and BOOOOOO!!!
