We took a vacation the last of June and I got to go on my first deep sea fishing trip. I researched it a bit and found out that we were going during prime Blue Marlin fishing season. I was able to get a boat and my BIL's uncle (Ric) went with me. I had a blast and caught 4 fish. That may not seem like a lot, but i was told by a few that fishing was slow this year. I caught a 67" Blue Marlin etimated a little over 200 lbs that I released. I also caught 2 Mahi Mahi, Rick caught 1 Mahi. Later that evening we went on a snorkeling trip that ran trolling bait to and from a wild life preserve. On the way back while the crew were cleaing mask, i was sitting drikin Mai Tai's watching the reels and say one of the rods bent over. I yelled fish on and that i was taking it so i was able to land a 45lb Wahoo. We had the Mahi for dinner that night. pics below
