You have great pix on your profile page. Did you ever fish in Panama? I lived there a few years & the big deal was to get invited to the big fishing fun on the Admiral's Barge. It was a yearly contest. Most of us came for the fun, great food & the drinks! BUT, there were many die hard fisherman among the naval officers/spouses.

One year they teased me for NOT fishing & said I would get no further invites if I didn't fish for at least 10 minutes. I thru the line in & was jerking it up & down. All the fisherman were chastising me & "correcting" me until the pole just about pulled me in. I had snagged in eye(I still feel badly about that) the largest fish of the day & won the contest & 500 dollar prize.

I've been through the canal 3 times delivering yachts from the east coast to the west coast and from the west coast to the east coast, and fished the whole way (except in the canal, lol). Congrats on the prize fish!
