Now that most of the seasonal boats are leaving
Los Suenos, the sailfish have returned in impressive
numbers for our year round boats. The “Spanish
Fly” has averaged 9 releases a day for the past
10 days and managed to release three marlin-one black
was about 700lbs.
The reef and inshore fishing has also been good-plenty
of roosters and dorado and a few amberjack.

Fishing has been great one day and not so great
the next day over the past couple of weeks for the “Spanish
Fly”. Sometimes the fish were all clumped together
in a big group making it easy for our fishermen to score
hits and releases. The following day, the fish would
scattered all over the ocean making our crew work harder
to find them.
The Randy Strauss group, hooking their own, went 11
for 23 on Friday and 4 for 12 on Saturday.
Some reports of dorado and amberjack

Expectations were very high for the “Spanish
Fly” going into the second leg of the
HMY Yacht tournament in Los Suenos. With so many good
boats and anglers they couldn’t possibly win the
second leg-well, they almost did! They were tied for
first place going into the last day and they couldn’t
pull it out. That one slow day of fishing dropped them
to fourth out of 50 boats, but they did manage
to win the overall grand prize with the most fish caught
during the two tournaments: 2 marlin and 97 sail fish.

After a frustrating
couple of weeks of seeing lots of fish, but failing
to get their full cooperation, it has finally turned
around for the “Spanish Fly”. Two days ago,
they released five for eight sails
and then yesterday, they released 10. And, today, they
decided to go rooster fishing and released 28,
some as big as 50lbs.

The first leg of the
Los Suenos Signature Billfish Tournament kicked
off on January 19 with 47 boats. After three days of
hard fishing, the “Spanish Fly”
came out on top with a first place finish-70 sails and
one marlin released in three days. Congratulations
to anglers Larry Drivon, Richard Lebo, and Coco Cambronero!!
And, of course, Captain Daniel Espinosa who always knows
how to find the fish!
Watch out for these guys in March-they are a big threat
to take the overall title.
2nd place “Game On” with 68 sails and one
marlin

The past few weeks have been great marlin fishing
for both the “Spanish Fly and “The Bite”.
Both boats had about 2 shots a day at marlin-black,
blue and striped. Yesterday, Roger Rex and Richard Lebo
went fishing on “The Bite” and Richard managed
to hook up a 600lb. black on a 30lb.
test and released her in just 20 minutes.
Sail fishing has been inconsistent-three to seven bites
on a slow day and seven to fifteen bites on a good day

What a great day, angler was Dave Garton, the
fish was 82in long w/ girth
60in.
In general, fishing has improved-anything is better
than hurricane rains, green water and no fish that we
experienced in October. This past week the “Spanish
Fly” released a total of 4 marlin, 10 sails, a
boat load of dorado and tuna and much happier fishermen!

After weeks of just bad fishing, it turned around
in the waters off Los Suenos (at least for now!). The
“Spanish Fly” hosted the Weaver family from
Florida and they got everything and more! They caught
21 dorado and 3 marlin-no big fish
tale!!!

No good news to report the last few weeks due to the
heavy rains that have pushed the blue water out over
60 miles from Los Suenos and Quepos. Fishing has been
painfully slow for our anglers-one blue marlin
over 300lbs. released by our anglers yesterday
and the day before that a few small tuna,
an amberjack and a snapper
caught on 26 by Steve Teague’s group.
Fortunately, we have some of the most experienced fishermen
on our boat who understand it’s fishing, not catching!
Waiting for some blue water!

For the last three days, the “Spanish Fly”
had the pleasure to fish with Lance Herlong and his
group from Florida. Their totals were very impressive:
13 for 17 sails, 2 big roosters, a
boat load of little tuna, a few dorado, a cubera
snapper and a 300lb. blue marlin and pulled the hook
on the second marlin. For a few of the guys,
it was their first sailfish-we were happy to deliver
for them!

On Sunday, August 14, 2005 Mike McDonald, veteran angler,
who placed 3rd in the January 2005 Los Suenos Billfish
tournament, returned to fish again on board Captain
Bill Kieldsen’s 35’Bertram, Sailfish. He
brought his father, Gordon his son, Jeff and his son’s
friend, Shaun McDowell.
His father battled a 120 pound fish.
His son and friend, who had never caught a Sailfish,
released 2 each and Mike caught 3 more. They had 13
bites total, which is good for this time of year. The
Sailfish were from 80 to 120 pounds.
They were fishing 20 miles South of Los Suenos
with no rain and flat calm seas.

This was a great week for the “Spanish Fly and
her fishermen! All week long it was catch what you want-plenty
of sails, mackerel, dorado, snapper, amberjack, and
best of all, a boat load of big yellow fin tuna. Sushi
for a long time!
