Great going Kristin! Then we put out the shark baits and ended up fighting a monster thresher shark again! This one took us a long time ... but we ended up catching this too!

That same afternoon we had some regular customers that had heard that the shark fishing was going off. So our regular customers Tim, Reagan, Christian, Chris and Judy all went out fishing with us to see if our good fortune would continue. As luck would have it...

Well, it is the 31st, The last day of 2005 and we started out with a morning trip. We took out Ken and his son William. I thought it would be a good idea to bring along my beautiful good luck charm ( DarcyAnn ) and man did it pay off !!! We hooked into a Hammer Head Shark and while fighting the shark we hooked into a Sail Fish! We were lucky enough to catch both of them. Great team work guys, looking forward to fishing with you both again.

Well, later that afternoon my son Luis and my # 1 right hand man Mike decided that they would rather take an all night sword fish trip instead of partying New Years Evening with everyone else. So off they went at five o "clock in the afternoon with Ross and Debra from Tenn. Although they never did catch the swordfish they were looking for...they did catch a big Cuban night shark!!!

Well, This is all for 2005 and we will be talking to you in 2006 !
