Thurs - fished with the fleet along a long lineset and had a marlin bite with a few sailfish. Fri - returned to same spot and it was much slower. On a side note, all day Friday I was bothered by chest pains. Returned to my hotel room and went to see the doctor at the clinic in los suenos. Blood pressure was high - 180/140 so they did an EKG and gave me some pills. Sat awoke with tremendous chest pain and went back to clinic. Shortly after they sent me to the hospital in San Jose where eventually put in 3 stints. As of Tues, 3/2, I am still in the hospital recovering. At least I got 2 days of good fishing in and one painful day of fishing. Hope to be home in a day or two. To Howard and the other anglers on the TUNABITE - pm me if there is anything we need to get square with
