at 36, caught my first fish!!
Mary, BillyBadAss, and I spent the day on Ocean Obsession II, out of Port Canaveral, FL.
Neither of us (mary and I) had caught a fish before yesterday. I hooked 5 fish total - 3 were brought home - King Mackeral, Trigger Fish, and black bass. A second Bass was tossed back, and a Grunt was used for bait. Mary brought the mahi home.

myself, I've never wanted to fish in the ocean, seemed like too much work...
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."

Congradulations...
Let us know how you cooked them up!!!
I'm only basically familiar with fresh water fish..Other than Ocean Perch of course.
Half the fun is also with a beer in your hand preparing them up for lunch,or a dinner...

Yeah - the KM really faught hard - except as my first fish, I didn't realize it. The subsequent fish on the line were pretty tame compared.
