Caulght this fish today with a fairly new wound on it.  Looks like a bill wound.  By the shape of the wound and penatration, we think it was a blue spear mark....

Looks like he got in the wheel. If that fish was hungry enough to eat with that wound, wow!

A bill while he was on the line maybe? Look very fresh... You never know.

I caught one last year that was nearly cut in half. They are pretty durable.

Where is the rest of the report wade ?

Not much to report Mike.  Couple of meatfish and one shot at a sail which wouldn't eat.  Had another sail, little bitty feller no more than 25 pounds jump and act crazy next to the spread but not come in it.  Like everyone else, got pounded pretty good coming in by a nice thunderstorm.  Dat's it....

I've seen some old wounds on dolphin in the past that may have been nasty when inflicted but had healed up...

we debated back and forth too wether it was a Lady or a kid.  After a while it sounded more like a lady doing "baby talk".  It was almost funny at 1st but after a while it was down right irritating!!  At one point I heard another Lady get on and suggest some Duct Tape.  I laffed so hard I almost fell out of the tower!!

Would there be a reason it's not safe to cut out the bad spot? Just like you would with a gaff wound? I have heard of people getting some bacteria or something from the salt water, are you thinking something like that? I have eaten fish that a shark/barracuda took a piece of, now you got me wondering. lol
