We are still seeing advertisements for Capt. Hamlin on another website, that has nothing to do with Capt. Hamlin. Ron Hamlin works ONLY for Casa Vieja Lodge. Do not be mislead!

Nat was able to release a number of sails on the fly but the highlight of the trip was a bite from an estimated 400 pound Blue Marlin that ate the fly in spectacular fashion.
