Fishing trip Puerto Escondido
Kategori: Allmänt
We booked a fishing trip! This guy came up to us when were sunbaking on a little beach hidden in a bay. He was selling dolphin trips, we didn't want to see any dolphins but we asked him if he did fishing trips. Ofcourse I do, but most tourist are not interested in deep sea fishing. When we came back to the hostel we found two guys, Adam and Robb, that wanted to join us. So we called him up and booked a trip 5:45 in the morning.
Such a nice man! He took us out in his big beautiful boat for only 30 dollars per person and 6 hours.
Look at the big bait, made for catching big fish.
Matthew got the first fish on his hook. It took him 15 minutes to reel the fish in. I was so scared, I didn't know what kind of monstrous fish was stuck on the hook, so I stood on good distance taking photos and videos.
We were all in chock and so happy when the assistant captain put on his gloves and hit the fish hard at the side of the boat. We couldn't believe our eyes, it was so big and it's fin so shiny blue.
Matthew ecstatic over his big catch. A sailfish 2 meters and over 25 kilos.
Compared to my foot. It's huge.
some minutes later Adam got one but lost it, we all very curious and want to see when the captain create another bait. He even sew the fish mouth together so the hook wouldn't slide through when catching a fish. 
Next one was mine, I was so scared and didn't really want to fish it up, but I change my mind and Matthew had to hold me and help me pull it in. ( I almost fell overboard)
You could see it jump out of the water, this sailfish didn't want us to pull it in, it was fighting and fighting and it took me more than 20 minutes to get the big fish in.
We couldn't believe it but we just caught another fish just as big as the first one. This one we were supposed to throw back in the water but when we pulled it up we saw that all its guts hang out of its mouth So we had to keep it too. We gave it to the fisher men, no way that we could eat that much meat....
Such a magnific fish, a little bit sad to kill it but we knew we wouldn't waste it!
Our captain filet the fish for us in the Hot weather. He did such a good job, I would recommend this trip to everyone. After six hours fishing we arrived to the beach very happy and satisfied. We felt a bit sorry for Adam and Robb who didn't catch a fish, but since they both had one hooked and lost it we couldnt do much more..
WHAT A DAY!!!!!
