Trip Summary
Double Sailfish Release – Pacific Billfish Action (August 6)
Description
On the morning of August 6, ADRENALINA 1 headed toward the Pacific side, beginning the troll approximately 2 miles offshore and working parallel to Pedregal.
As we reached the waters near the Lighthouse, the action quickly picked up when two sailfish appeared behind our spread at the same time.
One sailfish began following a purple Piwi Pakula lure, while the second fish came in aggressively behind our spreader-bar teaser. The crew immediately presented a ballyhoo rigger bait close to the teaser, and the sailfish committed to the natural bait.
The crew successfully worked the fish and ultimately completed an exciting double sailfish catch and release, with both sailfish safely released.
The guests began experiencing seasickness, so the decision was made to return to Cabo earlier than planned. ADRENALINA 1 arrived back at the marina at approximately 10:00 AM.
