Fellow Anglers,
There are still marlin in the Galapagos with water averaging 74 F. Seas are quite rough as it is windy in the Galapagos Islands. Blue marlin are still bitting in Manta.
Galapagos Islands:
San Cristobal Island
July 19, 2018– On The Hook fished with Team Ecuagringo. Junior angler Franco Escobar had his first shot at a striped marlin about 200# but marlin spit the hook on the run. Seas were very rough making fishing difficult. The team fished for 4 hours before heading back to port and raised 4 striped marlin with 1 bite. Fish were finicky probably due to the very slow troll because of sea chop making it difficult to navigate fast enough.
Ecuador:
Manta
July 17, 2018– Panga Don Teofilio went 2/5 on blue marlin. Panga Explorer went 1/3 on blue marlin and 1/2 on striped marlin.
