Justin's Homework Friday in Majuro

Friday morning: Majuro, Marshall Islands. These three pictures are of the great deep sea, South Pacific, shark infested, aqua blue water fishing adventure. The picture, top right, is uncle Chad reeling in the fish you see on the left. The rod that he is reeling in on is worth $1300.00. The fishing trip cost $450.00, they provided everything including sandwiches, plus they let you keep your catch. Everyone enjoyed their sandwiches except for one guy that was puking off the side of the boat, Grandpa. Catching tuna was the best part, first we had to go to where the birds were swarming, and that’s where the tuna are. Once they grabbed your hook you had to pull the line in with your hands. Once the fish were in the boat, the crew grabbed the fish and slammed their head on the side of the boat to kill it. When you catch a big fish you kill it a little differently, everyone knows that Babe Ruth could hit a home run, but I bet he couldn’t hit a four foot long wiggling sea monster with a bat. So when you catch a big fish the crew grabs a baseball bat and swings at the big fishes head until it stops wiggling a.k.a. DEAD.
