Howdy All,
Went for my first fish yesterday since moving to Pohnpei Micronesia last week. The weather has been pretty ordinary for paradise but we picked a reasonable day and took the boat out. Caught a dozen or so small skipjack tuna, a little mahi mahi, a wahoo, a rainbow runner and 30ish kg shark. Shark took a little skirt designed for the skipjacks in 400+m of water. Not a bad start to my three year fishing adventure. Even wore the fishwrecked shirt for the first day out.
