I'm very excited about this trip! I guess that's an understatement and as my 11 year old daughter would say, "Duh!".

It's a dynamic change of mind to prepare for a "business trip" (OTI sponsor Rep) and be preparing tackle and rigs instead of call reports, key acct sales, and fabric trade shows! LMAO

Two fishermen are going to join from Korea. They have great expectation to catch their first tuna ever. Good thing is they still don't know the difference between yellowfin tuna and blackfin tuna, and they will enjoy catching tons of tuna. :)

LMAO about not knowing difference between YFT and BFT! That's great!

When they hook into a really mean BFT, it will be fun to watch their face when they get it to the boat and it's a "small" 20 lb'er!

My hat is off to you Tony! Way to handle the situation, totally old school!

Great report Kil and fantastic pictures! Sorry about the loss of the big grouper!
Did you see enough of it to identify the species?

Who is the guy in the pic above holding the rod in his teeth? He's the same one in the pic at the restaurant holding the menu?

He takes very interesting -and animated- pictures!

Congrats on accomplishing many of your goals and I hope you put the G.O.M. more times on your annual fishing itinerary!

Fishing the slide with a wahoo bomb is da bomb (very effective)!

If you happen to be trolling during the day (or night), have a bomb rigged up on a 50# class rod.

When the troll hooks up (and you're not responsible for clearing lines!LOL) drop the lure on the inside side of the boat's turn as it slows. Make sure to keep clear of the troll-hooked fish.
