Default Skip the ice, let’s go billfishing.

We continued to fish without much success on the eating fish but saw a ton of whales, dolphins, sea snakes and turtles.

Being in 20-27m of water it was clear enough to look over the side of the boat and see your hook at the bottom. We reef hopped back toward land and eventually gave up and ran home.















On the run in I had one of the best snack ever. Paired with a beer at 30+ knots on a glassy ocean it was about as good as it gets.




And the very modest return for our efforts.










These are the finest eating fish I’ve ever come across. It’s no wonder they cost $65/kg to buy at the fish market.








Until next time
