Most of our other pictures are on Mrs. Goldy's phone. Also not sure why some are turned sideways. I am no technology expert.

Glad you had a good trip Goldy. Did you spend any time over at Jost Van Dyke or do any snorkeling?
Yeah, don't listen to me. I'm just an idiot.
Lol. Duckbill that was funny! The dude up top has already taken lots of bone before this deer, both mule and whitetail.

Glad you had a good trip Goldy. Did you spend any time over at Jost Van Dyke or do any snorkeling? We did a full day tour of the BVI that included the Baths at Virgin Gorda, lunch at Marina Cay (where the Pain Killer was orginated), Snorkeling at Diamond Reef, and a couple hours at Jost Van Dyke (home of the Soggy Dollar). We also took our Jeep over to St. John, and snorkeled all over the island as we hiked and beach hopped.

Heck of a vacation. Must be nice to have a lady who likes fishing. Mrs. Goldy loves to fish, but this was her last attempt at offshore fishing. 6 years ago we tried to spend a day offshore chasing Marlin in Costa Rica during our honeymoon. She got sea sick quickly, so I asked the Captain to head closer to shore and target species in calmer waters. This trip, she was determined to give it another try. Unfortunately, she just doesn't ha the stomach for open water. I told her we could head back in early, but she would not let me. She knows how bad I wanted a Blue Marlin. She was pretty green for much of the day, but she fought through it so we could stay out. Mrs. Goldy is a trooper, and I am a lucky guy. However, she decided she will stick to bay fishing from now on, and I am on my own for open water trips.

Gingers snorkel with long sleeve shirts on, just like we fish.
I really wish I had better pictures, but those are the best I can do. Honestly, 40 lbs or 400 lbs, I really don't care. All I care is I caught my first Blue.

Beautiful photos! I would be happy just getting a BM on, what a blast!!
Next time, see if the Mrs would try some ginger capsules, safe, natural and non-toxic. I have friends that don't get sea sick when they have those. Same friends use them for altitude sickness as well.
BTW, how was the course?
