I have to start over!
We love fish!
I am in Cabo, Mexico and my family went out fishing for 5 hours and caught nothing.
My middle son had his novel and relaxed in the spa. He had had vowed never to enter another fishing boat in Cabo as he has never caught fish here.
In Florida, when the boys were young, we went out into Tampa Bay in a 24 ft Chris Craft motor yacht. It has twin Chrysler engines and could tackle 4ft waves. Made a deafening battering sound with each new wave, but it always got us home safely. We never had to search for fish. Arty, my father in law knew the waters. We trolled with “Chum” or used 6” live shrimp as bait!
The fishes simply loved our hooks and we pulled in a huge harvest every time within 2 hours, storage bins filled to the brim!
The only hardship was stunning a 5 ft shark and getting it over board safely!
Pelicans knew our boat and the sky was full of them, sweeping up the scraps thrown to the water from the fish cutting block on the deck!
That was a time of plenty!
So what catches have you had? Please give us your reports!

BTW,
The Chinese have 2700 mega trawlers
This video here is worth a look!
