Struck out in basically everything, action was slow (no tuna, wreck fish, glass eye, hake, swordfish, sharks etc), but the saving grace of this trip was something I thought I’d never get (a rosefish). Was it worth 1300 ( including tip and meal plan?) no💀 but I’ll be back out here in the spring. Don’t get me wrong though the captain and mates really made the best of what was a bad weather situation to begin with, but in my opinion they should’ve cancelled and pushed it back 2 weeks

Caught off Kincasslagh, Co. Donegal.  We call these ‘Blue Mouths’ here, for good reason!

i think i’ve got the species right, but not 100% sure, guy was 600ft+ below near Key West, what a cutie pie
