Fantastic trip! Did you troll the gulf stream? Were you working a weedline or floatsum when you raised the billfish?

Not sure where we were in relation to Gulf Stream, we were in Greenish/Blue water, not really the Cobalt/purple like the gulf Stream . No weed lines, but we did see a pack of Pilot Whales.

Congrats! Must have been deep for that tile. I heard they are the best tasting fish in the ocean.

Do it, and do it while you can. I went on a similar charter with my father and two of my uncles, it was one of the best days of my life. All of them are still around, but none of them would be able to do the trip today, one of the uncles is in a nursing home and my dad and the other uncle simply couldn't due to health issues.
