We were fishing 4 on that Hatteras trip but they were top water. That
guy has 4 downriggers. We were fishing 4 different plugs at different
distances behind the boat, just to see what they were hitting that
day.

We did have 4 on at once when we went through a school of dolphin (the
fish). The captain immediately transitioned us to 4 old, barely
working rods and set up an assembly line. Drop in on one side hook up
and pull out on the other. We did that a few minutes until we had all
we thought we would eat and went back to trolling for tuna/bill fish.

That would be a blast. Did you get to keep any of the dolphin? I don't know how
they work it fishing out of Hatteras.

You catch it you own it but the captain said if we filled the cooler
with schoolies, we were going back so we stopped.

My sister has 5 kids so none of it went to waste. The funny thing was,
nobody was sure what to do with the tuna. It wasn't in a can so nobody
recognized it, The steaks were good on the grill tho.
My sister did some interesting things with big chunks in the oven but
I have never been much of a casserole guy.

I'd probably grill all of it. Any leftover tuna would make tuna salad.

Damn I love fish. Think I'll have some tonight.
