What do you think they are?
Baby blue fin.

Then again, maybe not.

In either case, it's quite bothersome to see that kind of "catch".

The pertoral fins are too long for those to be Bluefins, their
probably Longfin Albacore. And their really small ones. I don't thing
we've ever kept one under 30 pounds, probably more like 40 pounds.
Those look like their all well under 10 pounds.

Heheheh.

The point of the photo was not the fish.




What was the point, that the guy in the boat knew how to fish? Or that
the kind of boat allowed you to catch more fish? If it is the later,
that would make for one hell of a marketing campaign.


Ever been 74 miles offshore in the Atlantic in a 21' fishing boat, Reggie?

No, it really sounds like a stupid idea. It makes me think about the
line from the movie Jaws "I think we need a bigger boat". I have made
the run from Miami to Bimini, but it was much bigger than a 21' fishing
boat.

Well, some guys have salt water experience and balls, and others boat
(allegedly) on Lake Lanier.

Bigger than yours, I am sure, but I am not crazy enough to go 74 miles
offshore in the Atlantic in a 21' boat. When we lived in Florida, I
would go out 20 miles or so in my small SeaPros, but always only in the
best of weather and in a "convoy" of others boats.

Our Waylon is more of an 'armchair quarterback'. He talks a good fight
but at the first sight of a breaking wave would scamper back to a nice
shrinking, shallow lake.

I'm not convinced he talks a good fight. What he mostly does is clip and
paste.

Albacore. The secret is the long fins. Really small peanuts though. As to
limits, up until this year there was no limit on the Pacific Coast of the
US, but 5 in MX. Next year, 5 a day in SoCal and 25 a day in NorCal. More
tuna fishing days in SoCal.

Yep - your right - albacore.

Still way too small though.

No, I think you got that wrong. While I have done quiet a bit of
boating in the Atlantic, I prefer not to discuss the details because all
it does is stir up a lot of "oh yeah, I don't believe it". I have
always found that those who spend all their time talking about their
adventures (sexual or otherwise) probably have the fewest real adventures.

Anyone who has ever read rec.boats will see that most claims made in
rec.boats are challenged, so why bother. While I haven't made any
claims, you are ready to jump on and talk about "talks a good fight...
but would scamper back to a nice shrinking, shallow lake". I am not
that bored to get into that silly discussion.

But you don't mind discussing and often disparaging the details of others.
