waiting for the delivery of the " Pelagian".
Nat was able to release a number of sails on the fly but the highlight of
the trip was a bite from an estimated 400 pound Blue Marlin that ate the fly
in spectacular fashion. We ended up jumping the fish off, but reieved an
incredible visual display for the little time we had the fished hooked.
Definately the stuff you come to see and experience.
