I want to thank you for hosting Flipper since he (she) is not at PCB pier now. I lost a good 35/40 lb. King a few days ago to him while he was visiting us.

Why would you kill a fish like that? I thought it was a sport fish. That makes no sense, I have never seen sailfish steaks anywhere.

By the time he got it back to the pier, he was pretty much gone...no way to get down and revive it...had he popped it off, it wouldn't have made it...BTW...Tastes YUMMY!!!

I would have done the same thing. No sense feeding the sharks if it has a big chance of dying. Pics?

What kind of fish is it like? By that I mean red like a tuna or white like a cobe.
