hours as we cannot afford another day of doldrums. The day dawned with
overcast skies and a well rested crew. Everyone got some extra rack time
during the low wind stretch. We have done a good job of selective motoring
so we are not incurring too great a penalty.
In a moment reminiscent of Ground Hog Day, Mike was making sandwiches and
Tater yelled "fish on". He immediately grabbed the rod and began the fight
of his life. Shawn was there at his side and coached him through gruelling
fight. It was the same rod, reel, and lures that landed the dolphin
yesterday. After a 35 minute fight Tater landed another Mahi-Mahi. It is a
rather small specimen respectively but a good fish for a country boy from
West Virginia none the less!
Dinner again tonight is Mahi-Mahi with a touch of Cajun seasoning!
