Super Bowl Sash

Mission was to find a fish or two for our upcoming family Super Bowl party.  Conditions were super rough with high surf warnings and strong 30 knots winds in the forecast.  We were the only guys out fishing and it was crazy!  We left at dark and could only see waves 5 ft in front of the boat which made it challenging. Waves were breaking in the channel but we made out ok going super slow 4 knots.  Finally got to our grounds and laid our spread of Gaji lures as we got to work!

First Nairagi or striped marlin for 2019.  It came up to the boat green "alive" and started bolting under the boat until my starboard propeller caught his head and he was done!  Last year we had the hardest time landing a marlin too.

We even a a four banger hebi landing 3 out of the 4. Along with some akus, mahis and ono to add to the mix.  Came home cut the fish up just in time for the game!

Some of the pupus.

Along with Menpachi Walter and Akule Joe to reminisce about the good ol days.  Thank you to my crew for their support in providing the super bowl 53 sash.  A day to remember!
