hey guys,
we got back from our florida trip - the ladyfriend and I did a one day offshore charter with catchalottafish charters and had a great time. thought i'd share some pics...
a hungry pelican at the marina
our boat, geared up and ready to go
the buoy where we found our baitfish
me and my epic battle with a 100lb blackfin tuna
the 100lb blackfin tuna suffered some boat-shrinkage: now it's a 20lb bonita. man these things can fight though...
sending the kites out, looking for sailfish
watching / waiting for the strike
the girlfriend with her dolphin. mine was way bigger of course, but i fumbled it as it was about to be landed, so no pic
damn seagull stole my baitfish. for a while i had a seagull on 14lb test, but he managed to get away w/o the hook
hard to see, but two nurse charks and an 8' lemon shark are attacking a fish head back at the marina
We didn't manage to get hooked up with any sailfish, but between all the other species, the day was fairly action packed.
