At the very end of the video you can barely catch the top of his head walking by the bar right behind me in the last scene. We weren't fortunate enough to travel with the professional camera crew Jimmy Gatto hid in his bag for this trip. Here's a few more shots. I included the KIDD to proove he was there....unfortunately I do not have the shot of him asleep on the airport floor on his way home after he just got done puking and swearing off rum for life....again.
Leaving the Marina
Miss Behavin (Garlington) blowing by us at 35kts right out of the blocks
Getting lessons from our mate Marco on rigging circles with rigging floss. 3 dozen in under 10 minutes, if not under 5 minutes.
Big Earl after the first release of Day 1

The Kidd holding on while we spin looking for #2
The Kidd reaching for the leader with his short alligator arms trying to get a release on the first with another one strung out in front of us
Our other midget friend that fishes with us Johnny Lynch on the rod
There is no shortage of GIRTH in these pictures as you can see. I'm glad I went rooster fishing this morning because some of these guys look like a sausage with shoestring tied around themThis is right before their zipline adventure through the Costa Rican rainforest

great video and pics., but did the capt. really have to back down like that ?? better hope Hubris doesn't see this it will be somebody's ass if he does!!
John, thanks for linking the video for me. I was trying to upload it but SF wouldnt except my password???
great video and angling. But, the capt. looks like he's crazy! Its not a tourney and they are only sails! People are there to enjoy the fishing not back up and get the release the second they hook up. If I was the charter I would have been pretty pissed!![]()
One thing to keep in mind, even with circle hooks, shorter fight times equal healthier releases. Also, a lot of peopl number fish in places like this, and dead boat fishing is not conducive to number fishing. And lastly, they are only sails, but they are only pacific sails which average 80 to 120 (most of the time) and they are being caught on 30 pound tackle (most of the time).
F*ing awesome!!!!
