Morning Two-fers, on the patio wth a hot cup of Costa Rican while watching the young hottie across the street stretching for her run. Whooo weee there are two of them living there and smoking

Where are the photos?

[Travellin Dave]

No twofer today. I'm gonna be so lost all day long.

You don't want the 40 year old wrapper?

I'll wait for Dave to get here with the birthdays to see if we have any legit 40-year-old rappers today.

Well you know why 2 pac died right?

He was shot?

I have it on good authority that he's still alive and living with Elvis, and that they're responsible for chemtrails.

I have heard that before. But could you really imagine the two of them together?

Sounds like a best-selling crossover hit to me.

Pretty sure Bob Marley was mixed up in that too.

and Marilyn Monroe.

While you're at it...

The thing that goes the farthest toward making life worth while,
That costs the least and does the most is just a pleasant smile.

....or a nice pair of tits....

[Travellin Dave]

Fishing was great yesterday, quantity was a bit lower than expectations but quality was unbelievable.  The Pacific Ocean was as smooth as a farm pond yesterday and stayed that way all day.  We paid for an 8 hour day but when we got there captain  said he found some bigger sailfish and plenty of them the day before so he wanted to take us there if we did not mind a long boat ride and getting home late, would not charge us any extra for it.  So we ran 60 miles offshore to start fishing.

First up was an area with thousands of birds and porpoises feeding on baitfish.  The porpoises were going crazy jumping completely out of the water all over the place, never in my life seen anything like it.  There were also a few nice size sailfish jumping in there.  So we started fishing and just watching the show.  I hooked a fish and it was really big and headed straight for the bottom, much harder pulling fish than any sailfish would ever be.  Finally after a 20 minute battle got it close enough to the boat to see it, son of a bitch I had hooked a damn porpoise.  Never ever had I had that happen, cut the leader off and sent him safely on his way.  So we moved a little further offshore and put the lines out again.

Next up boys fil hooked up on a medium size sailfish and caught him then about 30 minutes later the boy and I both hooked sailfish.  Boys was pretty good size but pulled the hook, mine was a really big sailfish and brought him to the boat and sent him free.  He put on a great aerial show along the way.

Then we had a long dry spell watching the baits.  Lunchtime came and the deck hands cooked everything up fresh from scratch and served us a wonderful meal, meatballs with some sauce they made and parmigiana cheese melted over them, pasta salad and potato salad.  All Wonderful with ice cold local pineapple for dessert.

10 minutes after that huge meal the boy hooked a fish and it was obviously bigger than any sailfish, spooling line off like a rocket.a couple of minutes later here comes a big blue Marlin out of the water over and over again, absolutely one of the most beautiful shows you could ever see on the ocean.  Took one hour and 20 minutes to get that monster to the boat, measured him quickly and he was a couple of inches shy of 10 feet long.  With a quick girth measurement  his weight calculated 300-325 pounds, Pacific Marlin in this area rarely get much bigger than that.  Cut the leader and sent him off safe and happy.😀

Now, here is the really big deal in all of that! we were all setup with pretty light tackle for sailfish and he caught his first billfish (a 300+ pound blue Marlin) on 25 pound test line which is truly amazing.

Only a few hits without getting a hook set and headed into the sunset, a great day to say the least👍👍👍

Pics are on someone else’s phone but I will post some later today.

Gonna be hard to top that first day.  Isn't that lull time supposed to be when you get a cigar in?

What? I was just saying, hi.

[South Carolina Redfish]

great first day out Dave. surprised the captain doesn't have video for everyone.

Sounds nice but on most days water is too rough and dealing with billfish is a rather chaotic event, things happen very quickly. Any useful video pretty much has to come by handheld camera.  Fish don’t stay behind the boat, they move all over the place.  I tried to make some video of the Marlin but mostly came out with not much more than assholes & Elbows. Also, in that 1 hour 20 minutes that fish was visible for a total of maybe 30 seconds. 

Now those big 80’ and bigger fishing yachts in Miami do video for a price
