Isla Mujeres 2012
Dec 22
Contango will be back in Isla Mujeres in January, sailfishing. We will be posting daily reports, video, and pics. Should be a fun season down there !!
Contango fished the Wilmington Canyon, Saturday July 23rd, 2011. Conditions were sporty in the morning, but we ended up with three white marlin for the day. The real highlight though was having Brady Lybarger onboard along with his “dredge cam”. He got this awesome underwater footage of yellowfin tuna and white marlin chasing the dredge and even jumped in for one of our white releases.
Washington – Monday 8/2

Nice day all in all!
Fished the 1000 fathom of the Poorman’s canyon, after catching 2 nice yellowfin on the 30 line, we managed to catch a quad of white marlin. All fish put on a nice display.
