        I can honestly say that I do not have the vocabulary to describe the events and express my feelings of the last week. While Giles had coached me and shared his experiences of previous trips, you cannot fully grasp what to expect until you’re there to see them first hand. What I can say now, is that at points you are overcome with emotion, exuberance, and exhaustion.

        On the first day, you question if you would do this again. On the last day, you question when you will do this again and count the days until you can. 🙂

          @68degreesorless No. The fish are caught and sold to provide income for the village on a daily basis. It is one of the main ways the community supports itself. To be a small part of that is humbling…

                  Angle is not brilliant, but the one mid left was 124kg. For the avoidance of doubt, we did not catch any of these (well, one may have been Dennis's), but were looking at some of the days catch in one of the cold rooms...

                      @Giles @goosehd looks like an awesome time fellas. Deep see fishing will definitely test the gonads

                        The topography of where we fish means that we can hook into these no more than 1/2 a mile from shore....
