Some very good eats. Was much better than I hoped for.

Thanks for looking

Looks like a pile of fun! Did you keep all the meat or sell some of it? Happy trapping! ScottW

Was a great time. Seeing the big water, the birds, the fish. The best part was hanging with the boy. Watching his eyes as the reel got empty, knowing he had to get it all back. The charter we used sold it.

Nice trip. Mahi some dang good eating fish. I prefer saltwater fish over most freshwater for eating.

Probably headed for Hawaii next year - after shortbilled spearfish - the last of the nine billfish world slam for me.

I know a lot of charters sell the fish in Hawaii. I think that is wrong and would NEVER fish on one that did. My son went a couple years ago and that was the only piece of advice I offered. He found a charter that let them keep what they caught. Nothing better than some char grilled mahi mahi. Thanks for the photos !

Most of the charters I have been on would not keep a marlin unless it died during the fight - not even in Costa Rica or Mexico. But, everywhere is a little different. When in Rome.
