NICE !!! we've got wahoos, sturgeons, barracudas, sharks, blues, stripers and huge kingfish
i just rememebered another story
we were on a sailboat making a crossing from Bermuda to florida delivering the sailboat to someone that sailed it down and flew home. i am so not a sailor and was just going along for the ride and when we started out i decided to thow two lines overboard and stick them in the rod holders that we attached to the rails. well anyway someone brought a teaser reel. A teaser reel is a reel usually at least a 30 that is on just the butt of a rod so it is very short maybe 2 ft long. it is used to set out teasers from up on the fly bridge while trolling for marlin so that who ever is driving the boat can see into the water and let the teaser out or reel it in depending what the raised fish is doing behind the boat. Any way i decided to send that off the back while slowing sailing towards florida. After a while with no luck and lots of weeds I ended up reeling in the two regular rods and i forgot i had the teaser reel out there. to make a long story short after about 12 hours we were just sitting around talking when the reel starts screaming and i reeled in a 20LB dolphin ( mahi mahi )
we all had a good laugh with that one for a while.
