Just by luck, I caught this one yesterday near Corpus Christi. About a dozen fishermen caught about fifteen fish in the half hour after dawn.

Hi Mervyn,
Congratulations - what a big catch reminding me of my good old days.
As mentioned before, we must meet up for one more 'Big Time Fishing in Zanzibar' where we can catch big Marlin and other big fish. Zanzibar now have superb fishing luxury boats.
Suggest we host a Mini Reunion in Zanzibar inviting all our folks interested to meet. We all stay at one good 'All 5star All Inclusive' hotel up North East' where we plan other exciting excursions to include some big game fishing. We invite Karpal and other keen fishermen to join.
Proposal: The Mendes Clan to organise the Zanzibar-Reunion. Arnold & Alwyn will do us all proud and we will assist. They have the great reputation in planning and organising going back to the great days of Pop and Artie Mendes.
Zanzibar Here We Come - Let's Get Together 'just one more time'
Please send more of your big time photos to add to your blog which has not been updated with your recent catch.
Best Regards,
Benny

GONE FISHING instead of just a wishing Bing Crosby used to croon..
What a catch. Mervyn
Nothing like the Just Pulled from the water .... thrill My whole life I have not seen anyone catch anything more than maybe six inches.. We stayed at a lake from time to time.
But we did go as a Group pic nic - to Bu Bu Bu Creek as sit waiting for the tide to go out the narrow channel. Then as sun set it did. The men would just dip their little net on a handle and scoop up dozens of Big Crabs O my ! ladies and children just hung out doing what we do. I was in the child section then .... Our Moms brough the usual great Goan snacks patties, friiters or what not. Then the feasts we had at home with those delightful creatures of the sea..
We went to Corpus Christi once for Winter vacation soon after we first arrived in the USA 1976 Bosco thought it would be warmer there.. It wa 70 F the first day next day it fell to 50 an third day 40. It was 56F in Hatrford up in the NorthEast That's weather. As mysterious to me as Fish !
Sorry about your shoulder Ben
I am always nervous when I am offered any thing to improve my human frame.. So far it is plodding along with me ... St Francis of Assisi called his Mortal Frame "Brother Donkey" Thanks be to God for the Spirit of Joy.

I am no way near the number of fish you have caught through the ages.
