4 days on a boat and I'm still swaying back and forth.....
No marlin hooked, but we did see some. Michael caught a little skipjack as the first fish, and we ended up with 5 big Dorado/Mahi Mahi. The smallest was about 30 pounds and the biggest was about 55 pounds. I landed 3 out of the 5, plus the smallest one and the biggest one.
Michael did very well - he fought a couple of the dorado for over a half hour before handing the pole over to me. Pictures will follow later - please ignore the SPF 45 sunscreen slathered all over my face...
My right ankle and the top of the same foot swelled up very badly...I'm not sure if it was poor circulation from sitting in the fishing chairs and very little walking or too much salt since lunch was just snacking on chips and nuts for the most part. Maybe being barefoot that much, which I am not used to, and too much sun? The swelling is about gone now.
