Key West, FL – It is with great sorrow we report the death of Capt. Jose Wejebe. His love and passion for fishing was contagious. The Fishing World lost a leader and a teacher and the Key West community lost a great ambassador and friend.
Freeport, Texas – The boys on the Booby Trap were at it again.These guys love to swordfish and the numbers don’t lie. On a 2 1/2 day trip offshore, the guys went an amazing 21-23 on Swordfish. The video says it all!
Cape Verde Islands – Without doubt this is one of the finest Blue Marin fisheries in the World, if not THE best. What makes this fishery different from most though, is they get size AND numbers.
