I'm wrestling with the real thing right in front of me. This is exactly "Big Game Fishing".

 

The first big experience born in trolling that Seychelles did not expect.

A big smile spilled over the big game for 4 hours and 30 minutes, but Kotetsu landed flutteringly.

It may be Kotetsu (wife) who is relieved to deliver the rod.

Thank you for the benefits of twin palms.

"Would you like to go home with one more?"
Then it was a hit again.

I have no power anymore.

"Captain" I'll ask for a rest!

The swordfish that was lifted after the fight was
the leading role of today at 1m60cm (25kg).

Amazing, amazing, wonderful.

Hook it on a hand stick and pull it up to the boat.

The cheers of the three people rise, "Wow!"
The other is completely down.

Kotetsu glanced and then turned her eyes to "sail fish".

Super big game that exceeds 20k.
The biggest fish in the Island tour of the earth.

My arms and body are exhausted.I was fully satisfied.

I started to wind the reel, but it didn't work. For a while,
I stood up the rod, waited for the fish to weaken,
and slowly rolled it up.
This is my first experience with such a strong pull.

Carefully take your time and slowly I could see the fish.
It is a pointed "swordfish".

The fish "Blue Marlin", that anglers long for.
 A great guy who jumps in the air as seen in Hawaii.

It's a big catch today.
My arms are getting tired.

 Set "live food" on the largest rod and wait in anticipation of the big one.

30 minutes to wait.
A sound that indicates the strength of pulling.

 I cling to the boat that shakes in a moment of tension.

In the meantime, "bonito" was a hit.
It's light if it's about 5-6k.

Wind the reel according to the pull of the fish.

A skilled angler who winds slowly
without being strong or weak.

Captain "Edwin" cuts through the belly of the bonito
that he has caught to make a live
bait shaped like a "flying fish".

It will be a hit one after another soon.
"Mahi-mahi" in the Indian Ocean has a strong pull.

Get 5 silver-shining fish from 7k to 10k. Also, it’s hard to wind up,after all, I'm all alone.

"What about Kotetsu?" She is already down. It's amazing just to put up with such shaking.

 

 It took about an hour to go offshore,
and it took 20 minutes to start throwing the gimmicks.

Immediately hit the leftmost rod.Pleasant reel sound.

I'm used to winding the captain’s reel.

The sound of the reel became lighter on the way,
and it seems that he missed it.

A charter boat departing at 7 am.
Unfortunately, the weather is stormy.

There is no benefit to twin palms either.

Board on a shallow beach.

Kotetsu gets her pants and shirt wet, I quickly changed into seawater pants on the beach and managed to get in.

There is a wind and we set sail with a spirit.
