03.09 - JOSH TEMPLE: COWTOWN UNLEASHED

Location : Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

PELAGIC Pro Team Captain Josh Temple checks in with Pelagic Journal , serving up a photo update from south of the border... and from the looks of things, it seems like the weather is warm and the fish are biting down there in Puerto Vallarta - a magical place known by many hard-core fishermen simply as "COWTOWN."

There is no doubt about it, Josh Temple has been a huge force in getting worldwide recognition for PV as a big fish hot spot. For nearly a decade, Captain Josh has been fishing these waters with great success - targeting large yellowfin tuna in the 200 to 300 pound class, as well as black, blue, and striped marlin.

Lets take a photo journey down to the world famous fishing destination known as "COWTOWN."
