the plan was to head south a bit and do some sharking and chase some funny fish before and after and look around for some mahi along the way. my kids and skippy were the crew. the albies weren't hot and heavy so we headed south and started pot jumping. it didn't take long to get the action started. the way these fish light up in the water is truly amazing - one of the most beautiful fish in the ocean. we had so much fun we ended up doing it the rest of the day.

Seeing all sorts of southern stuff up here these days. Mahi, sailfish, spanish mackerel. Who says global warming isn't happening?

I was fortunate enough to fish with randi rhodes a bunch of times and we used to beat on tarpon with pretty light tackle - soo much fun
