Marlin/Billfish

plantmanrodeo

I've spent a lifetime and a small fortune chasing billfish all over the world. Caught 65 whites in Venezuela in a day, 110 sailfish in Guatemala in a day. 16 blues in two places, won't say where, but in one day, each.

Spent the last month in DR. Our average is 8 of 11 blues, every day. It's truly ridiculous. 

If anyone wants to catch blues until they're tired, should try DR. Sept/Oct.

It's truly off the chain. Right now!

That’s a lot of catching congratulations. I’m not into that personally but for those that are sounds good. I generally fish for meat fish although Marlin is very good eating I wouldn’t target them specifically for food.

Thx, for anyone one the forum, it's truly epic in DR right now. Not so expensive to fly and charter, relatively speaking.

I'm private, so not being commercial. 

This is from a meat fisherman from Florida, BTW, tight lines brother!

I've fished cabo many times for those elusive billfish. I even have my first marlin and the cabo arch tattooed on my arm.

Is Tim Richardson fishing down there right now?  Fished with him in the Spring of 2019 in DR.  Great guy!
