Ärende: RE: Fishing, Okinawa!
=============================
Hi Carol!

-> -> NOTHING like good family time! Looks like you three really managed to 
-> enjoy  
-> -> yourselves!  
->  
-> That we did!  I caught the biggest fish.  Buoy fish ;-) 
->  
-> -> -> www.saltwater-fishing-okinawa.com go to the gallery and page 2 of 
-> the  
-> -> -> pictures.  Thats us 3 (Don is the one with the beard).  Charlotte's 
-> got  
-> -> -> her eyes closed in one of the pictures but is a normal minx in one 
-> of them  
-> -> -> too.  
-> -> ->   
-> -> Well, it looks like she does like her sashimi fresh! (grin) 
->  
-> Oh yes!  The guys spoiled her something awful all the way too.  Next time 
-> though, I bring some seasick patches.  She didn't enjoy the 2nd hour of 
-> the ride out (it was rough, even for me).  Once she barfed, she was fine 
-> though <grin>. 

That's the way it usually works! Better out than in I always say! (grin)

->  
-> -> -> As a group we got more than 600 lbs of fish, mostly MahiMahi, 
-> Yellowfin  
-> -> -> tuna, and 'rainbow runners'.  They took 3 shots, one for each type 
-> of  
-> -> -> fish.  Over 100 lbs of it was Me, Don, and Charlotte, mostly Don 
-> with his  
-> -> -> trolling lure that the fish just couldn't get enough of.  It was one 
-> they  
-> -> -> were not familiar with so the boat master jotted down the site Don 
-> gets  
-> -> -> them from in Virginia.  
->  
->    
-> -> Looks like you got some real good rainbow runners (Elagatis 
-> Bipinnulata) Its'  
-> -> also called hawaiian salmon or Kamanu, too bad you didn't get to enjoy 
-> a few  
-> -> meals from all that bounty!  
->  
-> Yeah, thems the breaks.  We did make one of the smallest ones into 
sashimi 
-> on the boat though.  One that got the hook in the wrong spot and 
wouldn't 
-> have survived so we were not so cruel as to toss it back.  Gill injury.  
-> They put it out of it's misery quickly and we had a late lunch on the way 
-> back in (those of us who like raw fish). 
->  
Doesn't get much fresher than that! 
->  
-> -> -> Since we can't cook any fish here, we donated ours to the boat 
crew 
-> (the  
-> -> -> one guy works for tips so we added a fat tip as well).  
-> -> ->   
-> -> He'll either eat very well or sell it for a good profit!  
->  
-> Bit of both I am sure.  He's got 6 kids and a wife.  He and Capt Billy 
-> were taking the pictures so aren't in them.  Looks like Don got camera shy 
-> on a few too <g>. 
->  
I think I only saw him in one shot! 

-> -> -> Today it's raining.  We will go to the exchange since a big shipping 
-> trip  
-> -> -> was the other reason to come here.  Many things you cant get in 
-> Sasebo  
-> -> -> here at the Kadena exchange.  
-> -> ->   
-> -> Sounds like you're having a ball!  
->  
-> Definitely!  I got a new laptop.  Not because this one has a software 
-> problem messing with the display (I'll reinstall it when I get home and 
-> can snag a boot floppy).  I want something lighter and this Viao may be a 
-> sweet machine, but it's a monster to carry.  The new one is light yet has 
-> all I need and I think the price was good.  IBM Thinkpad Z60t, for 599$.  
-> Sounded good to me? 
->  
I'm going to get Anne another laptop for Christmas as well... does yours have 
wifi ?
chat with you soon
