This guy bit off the bottom after a pod of dolphins cruised by. Also released after the pic

That is a REALLY cool catch!

Very impressive getting out that many times! That Atlantic bonita is an interesting catch. Didn't really know they were down here. And of course the rainbow runner, mahi, sailfish, and wahoo all have me drooling.
