-and the best thing...is that the tuna don't know it's winter, cuz the water is still 80f.  The wife and I didn't catch shi-ot off hatteras last year except slippery dicks on the beach.  Our poor guy full on beached his 80foot boat on a sand flat looking for king macs.   I couldn't keep my business together.... the cap calling The Wife a dick specialist.  I was like..."yeah...you've met her too?"

Thankfully, we could buy mahi from other (luckier) vendors.  It was a good grill.  Speaking of.....I think it's time to look for rez ops again....  Stuck in the mountains too long.

Going out on a boat with granddaddy had little to do with fishing and more to do with being with him.  Last time we were down there we went out on The Big Time with my uncle captaining.  My son talked me into going up to the tuna tower....only my son could have talked me into that with my fear of heights.  We caught a few fish but the ocean was like glass that day and fishing was crap.  We did travel with some pilot whales for a while and a hammerhead swam beside the boat for quite a distance.

I wish I could remember the chant my uncle was saying trying to raise the fish from the bottom to our bait...even though it didn't work.
