    Went to Belize a few months ago and caught some Cuda and a few small tuna. Our guide kept it all and cooked it for us that night, and though I was nervous about eating the Cuda, he turned it into a delicious Caribbean style curry! Sometimes you just gotta trust the locals!

    Seeing that hammerhead reminded me of working on the Loop oil platform back in 2001 just after 9/11 wow did I see a lot of hammerheads in the water and occasionally a ray that looked like a house just sailing through the water real slow. Some of the guys would pull up huge red snapper with a hand line. Amazing time!!! I sure do miss the gulf.

    Hey Steve,
    I encourage you to do some research on handling mackerel with bare hands. It can damage the fish's skin and cause it to die within two days. My brother and I fish as well and this is something we learned about a few years ago.

    You should get a long hook remover for the toothy critters. They are about a foot long and kind of look like pliers with a big handle and tiny jaws. I use them when I catch sharks, keeps your hands away from the bitey bits and you don't have to leave a hook in the fish.
