Here's some pics. Got 10 mahi total, 3 were in the 16-18lb class. The mako was about 52", 125lb (est). Tail wrapped him but he still managed 3 GOOD runs before submitting to the gaffs/tail ropes. Great job by the team (Bryan/Dad) bringing this fish to the boat and into the boat safely.

Great trip.

Saw a nice large marlin jumping in the distance, must have flew 4-5 times.
62" fork, not 52" As far as Mako's go, it was reasonably according to plan. Gaff, gaff, rope, and bleed em!!

glad you had a good time Buzz. always disapointing with no YFT or BET or a real good haul of mahi, (the ones we did get were good size at least!)but the boat ran well and the weather mostly cooperated...

other than 1 report from Hydro (out of our range) and a commercial buddy WAY out of our range, the reports were VERY spotty between The Dip and Veatch (our grounds)... all in all not a bad trip...
