BILLFISH AND 5 TUNA OF ABOUT 80 POUNDS LANDED BY ESPERANZA SPORTFISHING

Sept. 26, 2004, Kurt Hjort, Esperanza Sportfishing, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico fishing:

Just got in from a long and successful day at corbetena. Laura and Charlie Keller of Houston, TX, are here for 3 days this week and today we started it off with 5 tuna around 80lbs and lost a few others of the same size. One dorado of about 25lbs, one sail released, and a marlin that jumped off at the bite!! not a bad day. As far as our usual baits, we have a good supply of goggleyes and mullet for sale at the Puerto Vallarta marina to use on the troll or for live baits. Today we had no problem with making bait in the morning as there were HUGE schools of bait and the marlin hit as we were letting out the 2nd bait.
