Is she or isn't she?
Finally we are experiencing nice weather on the East Cape. The wind has been relentless for weeks now. I have no first hand fishing reports but have heard that those willing to brave the wind have been rewarded with marlin and dorado. Even an occasional wahoo is still stirring.
Not wanting to get beat up in the wind has made it a little easier to have my head below the decks of the Jen Wren boats performing maintenance. Every time I start to see the light another gremlin pops ups but it is all to be expected. Inspecting all of the systems because I know it is not a matter of if they will fail it is a matter of when. The game is to anticipate a failure before it happens and perform service to prevent it.
The end of the year is time for reflection so I have started to review some of the incredible photos we were lucky to capture during 2013. There are way too many to post up all at once but for now I have decided to pick a few of my favorites and then post others that turned out to be most popular.
2013 wasn't the year of the tuna for the East Cape but we had our moments
Dorado were plentiful this dog went 58 lbs.
It was a banner year for striped marlin
Yes, marlin were as thick as cockroaches most of the year
My favorite for 2013 was this shot of a broadbill swordfish
Okay, by popular demand posted are photos that received a lot positive comments over 2013
This image was captured from the deck of our home in February and posted it on our Jen Wren Facebook page. It received more than 57,000 views.
Birthday celebration on Jen Wren III
1st sailfish of the season
Guys are still talking about the "red bikini"
Drum roll…….
