Good mate Nassim Joaquin has reportedly caught 12 Atlantic sailfish on fly in one day (Feb 1st 2010) fishing with
Captain Anthony Mendillo at Isla Mujeres. This breaks a record held by Joe Zimmerman whom caught
10 in a day some years ago.
"Joe
Zimmer of Berlin, Maryland, broke the one-day record for Atlantic
sailfish on the fly earlier this year. Fishing out of Isla Mujeres,
Mexico, aboard the Prime Time, Zimmer was led by Captain Butch Cox to
ten Atlantic sailfish on 20-pound tippet and abided by IGFA fly-fishing
rules for billfish."
Nassim
has been trying to get this record and his best day before his record
breaking day was seven fish. There have been reports at these links
Saltwatersportsman &
Inthebite.com in regard to this news and I will post more here once Nassim gives us the full story. Congratulations Nassim !
