      So, the flying fish rest in calm water at night, you shine a torch on the water and the flying fish sort of give off an opalescent light, you stick a hand net in front of them and they swim into the net.

      Easy.

      Well, I let Szymon do it, and I count how many we have…..

        Hopefully there’s alcohol involved.  Is it even fishing without it?

                    Additional kebab probably sounded great in the moment

                              Bigger than the previous one, but we did not weigh or estimate it.  I could have gone with it to the weighing station, but was hungry and did not need to know that much….

                              But probably 60kgish

                                            Nope, up before daylight and using flying fish. We often do that because poppers and stick baits are virtually useless in the dark. And I’d rather be fishing than sleepingg ???

                                            Now I’m popping….
