Nothing like a week in the sun, chasing blues, to get a guy's mind right for Rut!

Nice marlin BB! I've tried 3 diferent times to catch a marlin while vacationing on Maui and have zer fish to show for it.
Going to have to give Kona a shot one day, i've heard the fishing there is way better.
Did you get to take any of that marlin back to the house to eat?
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Not much of a beach guy, BUT that looks like a good time. It's nice when you can go into the dark and cold with the batteries charged up.

Didn't take any home, but I imagine they would have let us had we asked.
First time I've ever killed a marlin, wasn't all that thrilled, but when in Rome....

Even sandy beaches/blue water fishing isn't enough to keep me away for rut, trapping, and steelhead!

the fam looks great Bill, happy for all you guys!
really good to see you and your bro around, even if Dave is just in pix.
heck of a fish, 481.5 lbs.!
we're headed there Xmas break, am thinking I might want to see one of my boys try and hook into one of those suckas
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
