Guatemala Fishing report May 6th 2008 Sailfish and a good Blue Marlin bite ! This Guatemala fishing report is for the week ending May 6th 2008 and is prepared by[b][url=http://www.GreatSailfishing.com] The Great Sailfishing Company[/url][/b]operating out of the new Pez Vela Marina. We highlighted in last weeks report the strong Blue Marlinbite that we have had for the last several weeks in the richblue water of the Pacific Coast of Guatemala. Two groups in particular had an extremely memorable experience; John Bottone fishing in saltwater for the first time successfullyreleased his first saltwater fish and billfish (a good Sail of about100lbs !) on his inaugural day – but on his second day hooked intoa monster Blue Marlin ! Fishing with him was Steve Robinson, anexperienced (ex) charter captain from the Florida Keys – he recountsthe battle here. Fishing at the same time on board the Reel Diver was theStyles party – with another member Bryn Jones also attemptingto release his first billfish. The first day was slow, with only 3Sailfish releases – but things heated up dramatically from then on !After crossing the barrier of his first release, quickly followed by a half dozen more, Bryn was first to the 50lb outfit as the a decentsized Blue Marlin appeared in the spread. Johnny the mate onthe Reel Diver in a flash heaved the rigged Dorado belly intothe teaser stream perfectly to the side and slightly behind the fish – and the Blue inhaled it without hesitation. The fight lasted a relatively short, but memorable, 15 minutes – and Bryn successfullyreleased his first ever Blue Marlin as well……see the picture right…he looks like a Happy Camper ! The next two groups fishing with us – the Mueller and Kanoparties saw consistent Sailfish action on both conventionaland fly – raising 15-20 Sailfish per day and having very goodhookup rates as the fish were extremely aggressive. The blue water was swirling around a lot – ranging from arelatively close in 25 miles to as far as 50 miles from the dock –But we were able to find good action every day.
