Feb 21, 2004; 08:08AM - Fishing Great Communications Suck

Author Name: Gary Graham

SAN JOSE, GUATEMALA
IN GENERAL: A balky communications system out of San Jose and a cell phone that sounds like it’s under water make things difficult. To the best of our knowledge, things are about the same as last week when we encountered a sailfish blitz, raising multiple pez vela behind the boat 142 times or 38 times a day, 91 fish were hooked and 36 released. No matter how you spell it, it still comes out wow.
I am already looking forward to my Flyrod Sailfish 101 Series in April. We have a few slots left if you want to crank up your 12-weight to cash in on the Sailfish Bonanza in Guatemala.
Air and water temperatures remain the same /- a degree or two either way.
