bros, (sis's too i spose)
settingsteele, you asked me my most challenging fish in costa rica...yeah, the rooster fish is a beast, tough to run into though. i seen one on the surface one time, his dorsal fins protruding from the surface, about fifteen meters away (vis was about five)....swam right at him real still and he bolted, bagged two almaco jacks that same mornin....i love jacks and other pelagics, never bagged a rooster yet but i'm keepin my fingers crossed, they real good eatin, i caught a bunch on line, most small an i let em go...the small tuna here are a feat too....i chase em down on a dingy, rowin with one oar, when i get in the thick of it i hit the water and its like a fireworks display, cant usually get a shot off, but the thrill is intense. if i had a motor and someone to drive and maybe even chunk a bit it'd be sooo much easier i'd imagine....easier but for me maybe not better. i really dig on the challenge, rowing, alone, spearin.... hey, if i get a small tuna on the line, the school dont stick round like mahi, yeah? i havent never tried it, with mahi yes, but not with tuna, small tuna like bonito...anyone know? i never see em hangin round anyways when i got one on the line...
know what? i know there gotta be snook round here cause i heard round town. but i aint never seen one. anyone spear one before? its my favorite to eat, but never caught one in my life, never, not even on line. i ate lots, but from other fishermen....where the hell they at? close to shore i imagine and near mouths of rivers an stuff....? ok, i'm ramblin....
peace out, settingsteele...happy huntin....
