Did you do any fishing at all at Telo?  I don't know if anyone will ever set up a serious operation there due to logistics and lack of clients - weather would probably also be a factor during the SW monsoon - but the potential all along that island chain looks amazing.

15 sailfish, WOW! We brought 7 marlin to the boat once down in Los Cabos.  You beat for sure.  Great adventure.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Hi and welcome Patudo - yes, I casted a lot of small poppers all over the Telos. No giants, but plenty of fun-sized blue trevally taken.

Unfortunately, the tip of my popper rod got broken in amongst surfboards being extracted and replaced multiple times over the day, so that spelled the end.

A friend went spearfishing most days and saw a lot of big pelagics - yellowfin tuna, wahoo etc - down deep, but couldn't get in range. He did eventually get one modest wahoo for his troubles though...

Undoubtedly a lot of potential - as you say...

Dominick - it's been ages! Hope you've been keeping well and enjoying all the recent trips! Happy (belated) anniversary to you and Linda too. :d
