I was stationed there twice and plan to retire that way after the kids finish school … I’ve been telling my wife that I plan to buy a boat and cater to American tourists that want to fish … she thinks I’m kidding!

I’ve caught several marlin while I was there but NONE of them that big. 150lbs tops … just baby’s for me. Usually only set the lines for mahi and tuna bacause thats what I liked to eat. :smiley:
