Happy 4th of July! We almost got a Grand Slam (one catch from every family of pelagic gamefish in the area):
Check out the flags that we were flying on the way back:


We went out with 'Lucky' Dave and his son Dylan, and caught a 170 lb Yellowfin Tuna, a huge 53 lb Bull Mahimahi, a MARLIN, Barracuda, koshibis, and a whole mixed bag.

We would have hit the grand slam with a Wahoo...
We'll get it next time!
