    Alright Gang I'm gonna steal, A little bit of Lettermens idea's here.

    What's your Top Five Ultimate Fishing List.
    List the five or ten whatever you want, If you could swing it. Destinations and if you want Capt.'s to fish with.

    Mine Are In No Particular Order:

    Bermuda, WOUND UP JAMES Style
    Costa Rica, Pacific and Atlantic
    California, Monster Mako (or New Zealand Same Species)
    Mexico/Canada Josh Temple
    Great Barrier Reef
    Galapagos/Panama
    You know what I got plenty more, but I'll cut it there.

    So What Say You All,
    Thanks Tim.

    Best Catch
    400lbs black, 500lbs blue, 750 mako, sail on the fly, 750 tiger, 150 yellowfin, 500lbs bluefin
    Golfito, Costa Rica, it has the great marlin fishing of Panama and the great sailfishing of CR... plus fantastic inshore for roosters and a like. (with my crew Sportfishing Golfito of course_

    Next Mexico anywhere! But Isla (Billfisher)and Ixtapa (Sequestro de Amor) are my favs

    Bermuda! Great Bonefishing and marlin, both on the large size. (Bones on my own and of James Robinson for offshore)

    And the Good old Northeast on my own boat or the Billfisher

    1. Bermuda - Grander Blues
    2. Great Barrier Reef - Grander Blacks
    3. Puerto Vallarta - Cow tunas, blue and black marlin
    4. Venice, LA for everything that swims but especially yellowfins and wahoos. Ideal Trip would be a 4 dayer....1 day yellowfins, 1 day wahoos, 1 day snapper and 1 day duck hunting in morning inshore for trout and redfish in the evening
    5. Guatemala - Sailfish

    San Diego, Cabo and Ocean City get honorable mentions for yellowfin, striped marlin and white marlin respectively

    I'd like to go to (as angler/charterer):

    Panama - Tropic Star for what looks like a fantastic all round fishery.

    Galapagos - Sadly seems to be a bit of a dump on land but I'll grin and bear it to experience what seems to be the hottest striped marlin fishing in the world period. I'd like to spend a couple of days trying to hook one of those monster pacific bigeyes too.

    Azores - May have to wait a while for things to happen here but that's the price you have to pay for the chance of raising a really big blue marlin. If I lived on your side of the atlantic Bermuda would be hugely tempting too just for the light tackle wahoo action alone.

    Oregon Inlet - I'd really like to get some schooling in NC-style natural bait trolling. Plus, loads of pretty Carolina boats to ogle.

    Canada - I prefer fishing in bare feet and a T-shirt but I'll pull on the waterproofs and deck boots just to see some of those giant bluefins.

    Since I fish the Atlantic all the time, I would put on my bucket list:

    Galapagos - fished there several times, each time better than the last - Capt. Starr is the best!!!

    Marshall Islands -

    New Zealand - Big stripeys

    Indian Ocean - anywhere

    Guatemala - find me some black, striped and blue marlins for a grand slam.

    Its not even close,

    Im no Pino mind you. I dont drive around thinking I could be on a flight and fishing in 6 hours. He gets on my nerves with all the time he spends relaxin. I have been to a few places, I would love to actually buy a boat and ship it to my brothers house in Hawaii but if I had to pick for all around best time anywhere,.........Its Pirates Cove NC. I just love it there. If I do go back with a boat, even if its not mine. Im going to have a party at the Lone Cedar......dinner is on me! I want to bring my crew with me, TeddyP, Just Released34, Flicker.... AKA gonefishing2023, Go Navy, Perfectscore, Eddie spaghetti. We go outlet shopping on Wednesday like a bunch of girls, but we laugh all week.
