Never know what you may come up in your spread...
 

This is a friend of my brother named Dave Wolfson.He used to run bongos out of newport for Joe Barian.He is a FT capt for some gazzillionaire now and caught this bale a few years ago.found this while going through old pics.Definitely CPR'ed ,not the kind of thing you want to get caught with down there,they would take the boat.Enjoy!:sifone:

Wow
Excellent job on the cpr



exactly what I would have done


what?
seriously!
I would have...

:D:D:D:D

hes very lucky that no one form a long distance away wasnt watching.

That was a gps drop.thats not soemthign that just acidently falls out of a boat.

Lucky no one found that chum line and looked for him! Thats 10k

He must have been High to fling that bud out there as chum.:)

He looked like he was enjoying it - way too much.

It may have been a GPS drop, but more likely it was jettisoned by the drug runners when law enforcement detected them. My ship is conducting counter narcotics operations off Central and South America right now. Dumping their cargo and making a run for it is the tactic of the go-fasts when they are detected. We've had a couple of guys ditch their loads when our helo flies up on them. Those are 1000kg loads of coke, at $33,000 per kilo, not "small change" bales of marajuana.

When not chasing the smugglers, the fishing is pretty good off Costa Rica, Panama and Columbia. We've released a couple of 150lb class sailfish, lost a couple nice marlin and one huge yellow fin, caught (and mostly released except for flight deck barbecue Sundays) all the dodos and schoolie yellow fin you can shake a stick at.

Fished the WON tuna tournament in Cabo a few years back and we caught one of the those. Captain said every time there is big swell or a storm small pangas coming from mainland overloaded with drugs capsize or lose some of their load.
Our bail was wet, but dried out just fine! :sifone:

But of course, you did not enhale. Right?

I've smoked yellowtail, it was delicious!

We could eliminate this criminal/cartel element by legalizing weed in the US.

how does that saying go...?

You gotta get lit to get bit....

Now thats really getting Skunked!!!!!!!!
:bandit:

He said it was very heavy,like 20# or so.Very compacted,like a trash compactor or something...

FUCK YA!:you_rock::you_rock::sifone:

Looks like he set a little aside on the bait tank. :canabis:

came across a floating bale off Descanso years back, i was afraid to even go near it.

I've come across a couple in the Sea of Cortez. The pangero said best thing to do is stay far away because you never know who could be watching and if it comes up missing you and your family could come up missing as well.
