Captain told us in the way in, he shared #'s with fellow captain that was blank for the day. He went (5) for (5) on sails in 15 minutes. What a day for billfishing. Had a lady angler on board who never fished offshore before. Her tally was (2) white's and (1) sail. She went a "creeking". Many thanks to captain Jesse and his mate Matt for a outstanding day. Sea's were 3' gentle rollers (NOAA was calling for 5' to 8").

Sailfish are the coolest fish in the sea, fun to catch,fast and beautiful when lit up.
