Pochos Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 We had the privilege of having the legendary great lakes sportfishing team, Captains George & Chris Peplinski of Netminder Charters from Onekema Mi along with their family aboard the Bad Market with Captain Andres. George's daughter Heather was married in Cabo on 4/20...Congrats Heather!! Prior to sunday Charlie had been sticking a few marlin near destilaradas and Andres decided to make the run to the Gordo Bank where he set up 4-5 miles outside. There they found very nice 73 degree blue water and were able to give the Netminder Charters family the opportunity to reel in 4 nice striped marlin to the boat. Congrats guys and we look forward to seeing you again On the following day we took out a long time customer and his son that fish a lot of tournaments with us here at Pochos. Captain Andres ran out to the same spot he was able to find the fish the day prior and raised the bar by pulling in 5 striped Marlin for Sonny and his son. We are now gearing up for the IGFA tournament in a few weeks as we have 3 invited boats out of our fleet that will be fishing teams from all over the country. Captian Andres proudly flying his flags on the Bad Market!!
KJ pluggin Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Those are some great looking fish guys thanks for the report, and good luck in the tournament!
GLF Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I see you had a Michigander for a customer! Nice photos....Thanks for sharing.
Pochos Posted April 21, 2011 Author Posted April 21, 2011 Michiganders get special pricing....especially spartan fans:thumb:
Priority1 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 GJ Captains Pochos, Andres, George and Chris, and Heather. I wish I was there with you on that salt water. I spent a quite a bit of time off Manistee and Onekama. Netminders is known far and wide.
silver one Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Just got back from Punta Cana. Paid for a 10 hour vip charter threw firstclass fishing charters. What I got was some Ham sandwiches, Rusty bait rigs, oxidized fishing reels and rods and carbon monoxide poisioning from diesel exhaust fumes from a 42 foot 30 year old bertram that looks nothing like the picture on there web page. Glad I held back half untill after the charter. felt bad for the first mate becuse he worked his but off but no fish. wich I attribute to junk equipment. I still tipped him but my wife was so sick from engine exhaust I told the captain to take us in after 6 hour. sad thing is I really researched this charter and they were in the top 40 of over 200 offered in Dominic Republic on every review site I looked at. I would have hated to take the one ranked at 100. I told my wife I wanted to got to Cabo before she picked Punta Cana. By the way. Sweet picks thanks for sharing. I feel bad that I lost an opportunity to fish for one of the great fish. Hope I can get an opportunity to go and try it again with a good charter.
mattmishler Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Welcome pochos , looked like pepe and his family had a great time!!
FIJI Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Heck, as long as you keep me away from "Cabo Magic" Im in !!!
Grant Sadler Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Welcome, Those Marlins are my dreams that I'am sure will never come true:( but I love to see picture's those are GRRREAT Thanks:split:
A-Fishy-Anado Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Those stripers are nice size. Much more broad than the ones that we caught with Pochos fleet. Capt Andres was our captain as well:thumb:
Pochos Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 Heck, as long as you keep me away from "Cabo Magic" Im in !!!Didn't like there "Magic" hey! It's like anything though, there is bad with the good. Majority of charters in Cabo are excellent and with some research you can find the right ones. Pochos does have some bad days though and skunks have happened.....just hasn't happened in a while:grin:
FIJI Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 he was so bad we never even made a reservation with them ! Dont know how someone with such bad attitude even stays in business
