saw it in a local newspaper today...they were fishing a tourny in Arecibo (north of the island and the little guy got to fight the fish...hour and a half later the guy in the blue suit got the gaff!

not much details in the article....

Ok Lou here it is, not an idiaot....but a Nimrod perhaps! ....check the map out north central area.....throughout the northern coast of the island is the Puerto Rico trench.....(second pic) it drops to about 10,000 as close as 3 miles rom the coast...is that sweet or what...pelagics just 3 miles offshore...let me know if you need or want to know anything else......
