In August 2007 our niece Liz came back to visit us again. We took her out fishing in our skiff past the reef just outside Key Largo. We were trolling just trying to catch something and hooked up with a Bonito (something that we had never caught before). Liz had never caught a fish in the ocean so we had her haul it in.
While Mark and I were trying to find out what kind of fish it was in the book we had, Liz sat and watched it flipping around on the back deck of the skiff. All of a sudden, she let loose a scream and we thought that she must have been bitten by the fish. What really had happened was that the fish was bleeding all over the deck and she was freaked out by the sight. We got her calmed down and threw that one back and went back to trolling.
We did catch several others and kept one to try. We were proud of Liz when she held it for pictures. We had a great time with Liz once again and told her to come back anytime that she wanted.
