***A short Sailfish video to warm up the winter!! ***

[offshore]

Hopefully this will warm you up a little this winter!! I had a little time to sit down and put together a short video from a trip we did earlier this year. It was a great day on the water yet a little frustrating at the same time. I cant remember how many Sailfish bites we had this day but it was a bunch!! I think at the end of the video you can hear Walt say something like " 1 for 372 ". I don't think the ratio was that bad but it wasn't pretty!!
Toward the end of the day after a cockpit conference we finally figured out how to hook those fish that were popping the outrigger lines out of the clips !! Hope you enjoy the short video............Tight Lines Mark

Great fishing, Cool video and mighty good editing! Wish I knew how to do that!

Nice. As frustrating as it was, I'd rather get the strike and miss than chase free jumpers around the ocean - like we did that same day...

We were happy to get all the bites that's for sure!! Speaking of free-jumpers we had quite a few bites from free-jumpers we chased down, we just couldn't hook up. Hopefully we now we have a better understanding on how to hook them up. We are new at the bill-fish deal and trying to work the bugs out. We are getting better at it that's a good thing. Its different when you are just trolling around and you accidentally get a bite from a bill-fish then when you are actually trying to catch them. It sure was fun figuring them out. I know we are looking forward to doing a lot more bill-fishing this coming year....Mark
