Trip Summary
Trip Summary
When the ocean pays its debts with interest.
The sea has a curious way of testing us. Yesterday he gave us a lesson in silence: we were in the heart of a massive tuna patch that simply decided not to open its mouth, and a Sail Fish that escaped us in the last breath. But in Mathis Fishing Legends, we know that yesterday's "garrote" is just the prelude to today's glory.
The morning began with a nostalgic atmosphere. We feel the trade winds, those gusts that smell like Christmas and that little by little were rising in tone to test us. The wind was blowing hard, but our determination was even more so.
After an initial "bool" with the first Roosterfish, the Pacific finally opened its doors. We entered a surgical streak: four imposing and beautiful Roosterfish -With double included- that fought with the nobility that only this species possesses. To complete the picture, the Needlefish attacked with their usual precision and two Jack Crevalles reminded us of what a brute force fight means. What a way to change destiny!
