deep sea fishing

Yesterday, April 26th, a bunch of us went deep sea fishing down off the southern tip of Okinawa. We left the harbor around 2:00 pm or so and returned from the open water around 10:00. We had a blast and caught around 56 tuna and one mahi mahi.
That's me making my best fish face as I hold my first catch (and the first catch of the trip). The big green and blue fish is the mahi mahi that our friend Mike caught. The guy with the white beard is Captain Billy.

The sunset was beautiful that evening.

Kristen and I looking tough with our rods. We caught a lot of fish, mostly because we are so good at fishing. (Small hint of sarcasm here). The fact that profesionals were helping us and that tuna seem to bite at anything has nothing to do with it. :)

Erik embraced the chance to act like a pirate. Arrrrrrrgghh!!!

Here's the whole group behind all the fish we caught. Then we watched as they filleted all of it.

We'll be eating fish for a while! We all got together this evening (Sunday the 27th- Happy Birthday Tim!) and had a big cookout where everyone marinated their fish differently. Erik smoked ours and it was DE-LISH! But even after the cookout, our fidge is still stuffed with fish. Yum:)
