I'd really like to catch a big fish someday but it would be difficult from our boat, especially with just the two of us on board. You'd really like to have an experienced person at the helm to back the boat down and keep the fish positioned properly, along with another two or three people to help out in the cockpit. |

You'd like to get it close enough for some good pictures however. Of course with a big powerful billfish like that you'd have to "release at a distance", i.e., cut the line. Trying to actually unhook it would be way too dangerous. I'd be happy to take people out with us but there are really no big fish other than sharks and tarpon that are closer than 2 or 3 days from here. The really good fishing is in the Bahamian out islands and that's at least a 5 day run from our house. |

To you, snarky comments seem to be a one way street - always directed towards you, as though you would never utter such a thing. You call names and in the same sentence ask why someone would get snotty. Now, back in Bozo's Bin. I've got to walk my dogs.

I wonder if he'll have it stuffed or I'm sure there are ready buyers for it. Smoked marlin is about the only way it tastes good. I have never heard of anyone eating a marlin or a tarpon. 35 years ago on the charter we took out of Hattaras the captain told us, if we got a billfish up to the boat, we could get a picture and if we wanted a mount he would get the measurements but we were turning the fish loose. Virtually all of those "mounts" are just fiberglass replicas anyway. They don't skin and stuff the fish. The "tarpon" guys I know don't kill the fish either. Actually my neighbor was saying you could catch a tarpon right now in the north end of Estero Bay, near Hendry Creek. Probably nothing close to record size but even a 4' one will put on a show for you. I really don't fish at all but I do watch fish and I am sure I could go get some if I wanted to. I have thought about taking the hook off of a spoon or a spook and seeing if I could get a hit or two. If a fish nails a plug, you know you had him if you wanted him. Japanese acquaintance had the smoked marlin. The only time they really keep a billfish in Baja is if dies during the catch. When I caught tarpon in Costa Rica, Luis said they only keep if the fish dies. Is ok fare, but mostly they give to poor without much food. He said there are a lot of good eating fish in CR. Tarpon is not high up the list. |

My how times have changed. Trying to get yourself in Gods good graces? No, he's just a troll. |
