Bill Updike (left), Tucson Bob Updike (center), and Larry Gibbons (right)
Pulled out of San Carlos and headed out to the Sea of Cortez
with Captain Juan and deck hand Fernando on board.
Bill Updike caught the first fish
About a 40 LB Blue Fin Tuna - won 1 peso

Larry and Bill enjoying a "Cerveza" on the front deck
Brothers TBob and Bill
Fished all day and kept Fernando busy
Bill caught a Sea Bass for one nights dinner
We needed a picture with our pilot Juan
And we needed a picture with our deckhand Fernando
OK - We'll cook this Dorado for dinner
TBob's turn in the fight chair
TBob caught the biggest fish - won 2 pesos!
45 LB Dorado was worth a group picture
On the way back we were joined by a herd of Dolphins
Our 3rd night out on the water we ran into a fishing boat
stranded because their motor broke.
They said they were out there for three days.
WOW!
