Snap... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear friends,


Let there be no misunderstanding: we are no fishers....We understand the importance of catching a fish every now and again, especialy on long sailing passages but we actualy fake to fish, with a nice big rusty hook, kind of hidden in what is supposed to look like a yellow hairy octopus. (i will kill the catch with tetanus..) so obviously we don't catch anything. As we want to be able to post one of those  victorious pics holding by its tail a big nice dourado or tuna fish, we invested in proper artificial bait. This thing set us back R$ 50, and the shop owner gave us the stainless steel line and everything. We were ready to go and catch some serious fish..
So, a few days later, on our way sailing to Salvador from Morro de Sao Paulo i decided to try our new bait... All of a sudden the reel made noise and almost immediately reach the end of the line... No time to slow down the boat (i think that the actual catch (.. a biiigggg one....) stopped the boat... anyway, tried to real in this enormous fish and then Snap...!!! the tension on the line became way too light...I feel sad about the fact that now a big fish near the waters of Salvador is showing of its new piercing.. Anyway, we will be back with better gear (stay tuned for the pics with fish..)

Enjoy
Pieter
