Pete Hauls in Mahi Mahi on Maui

Our avid angler, Peter, chose to board the boat at 3 AM to go sport fishing on Maui.  He went on a 9 hour fishing trip aboard Start Me Up - a 41′ Bertram.

And what a day they had!  There were 6 people on the boat, though 3 of them spent most of the time seasick.  That left Pete and a father and son to haul in the 26 mahi, mahi they caught!  Just coicidentally the father and son were from Fort Collins, CO.  It’s a small world.

 Pete caught 7 of these delicious fish.  The crew cleaned some for us to take home and prepare for dinner.  If you purchase it fresh at the fish market it’s about $20 per pound so it was quite a treat to have.  They were the talk of the dock on coming back with such a large haul!  A great vacation day for Pete.
