A week or two ago I mentioned we were head down south (Baja) to do some fishing and watch the Super Bowl. It was a great trip with perfect weather - here is a one of day's catch that my son and I managed to bring in.....

Totally sweet! What are those, tarpon? And that water: if it looks that good there in the marina, I can imagine what it was like where you dropped your lines in.

Well done.

Brent is correct. One of the better eating fish in my opinion.

Phil, have you ever had Wahoo? A friend of mine brought me some from a trip to Cabo. Best tasting fish I've ever had.

Never have. We go every year over Super Bowl week - wrong time of year for Wahoo. I understand they are one step above a barracuda... predator-wise.

Uncle Sam used to send me a great place called Diego Garcia. The Giant Travelli were the most fun fish I have ever caught and ate really well too. I miss getting paid to go there.

I read an account of a trip to Tierra Del Fuego. A little hard to get to, but some combine it with motorcycle touring. Anyway, what you do there is wade fish in the surf for these monster trout. Saw a few pictures, they're something like 30 pounds (for a trout, that is monster) or maybe more.
