Sami I'll remember that Sailfish action as long as I live it was insane! Racing around the ocean after free jumping sailfish packs and casting lures to them like they were tuna what a blast! Igor is an absolute gentleman and the Brazilian guys were as mad as hatters it'll be a pleasure having them back again next year.

Have fun on the next adventure with Nick. Remember Cast! Cast! Cast!

Thank you.
