First time!
      #184758 - 28/06/11 07:00 AM

Hello Folks,

Last week I took my boat down the Intracoastal Waterway via the Chesapeake and Albemarle Canal. My friend and I crossed the Albemarle Sound, then the Pamlico Sound, and went to Cape Hatteras. Here’s the boat in the Great Bridge Lock.



Once in Hatteras I picked up two friends and we went fishing. We caught a BUNCH of mahi mahi (Hawaiian for “very strong”), a few skipjack tuna, and hooked and jumped a white marlin and a sailfish. We didn’t land the billfish. Here’s a couple of shots of my friends with a few of the fish. Bob, the older tall gentleman, is the fellow who traveled down and back with me. Paul, the tall young fellow is a classmate of mine, and Greg (with the beard) works with Paul.

Here’s one of the mahi mahi.

This is the same fish coming aboard.

A skippy (skipjack tuna, “chicken of the sea”)


It was my first time in the Gulfstream in my own boat. We had a great trip, and I’m eager to do it again.

Take care, Tom

I have never caught a "Dolphin fish" but have heard that they go hard indeed .

Beautiful boat and what a great way to use it with a few friends.

The colors, while they are alive are so vivid and bright, but within minutes of dying turn gray.
