If those are what I think they are, I wouldn't be publishing a
photo
of them.
What do you think they are?
Baby blue fin.

Then again, maybe not.

In either case, it's quite bothersome to see that kind of "catch".

The pertoral fins are too long for those to be Bluefins, their
probably Longfin Albacore. And their really small ones. I don't thing
we've ever kept one under 30 pounds, probably more like 40 pounds.
Those look like their all well under 10 pounds.

Heheheh.

The point of the photo was not the fish.




What was the point, that the guy in the boat knew how to fish? Or
that the kind of boat allowed you to catch more fish? If it is the
later, that would make for one hell of a marketing campaign.


Ever been 74 miles offshore in the Atlantic in a 21' fishing boat,
Reggie?


I've been to Bimini from Port Everglades in my 19+, how's that? What's
the relevance?

Bimini is a very popular destination in S.Fla, and their are always
convoys going over, so it is not really dangerous when the weather is
right. 74 miles off shore in a 19ft boat would not be recommended by
many. My guess is even Mr. Parker would not recommend it.

It was a one-time trip. We were already fishing 20+ miles out (without
success) and the seas were flat. It was still a risk but a trip we will
never forget.

BTW - It's 55 miles from point-to-point. Since we were out about 20
miles due east we cut to trip there to about 40 miles.
