Cole's Deep Sea Fishing Trip in Japan

Here is Brad getting ready for the expedition by bringing his Little Mermaid backpack.















This was the smallest fish of the day. Doug threw this back into the ocean and one of the sea gulls ate it whole in one gulp.















Here is the group after a day of fishing. Captain on the far right and first mate on the far left.















Safety first















Brad and I had to google how to scale, gut, clean, and prepare whole fish. For our first try, I would say things turned out very well!
















Here is the finished product. At the top is the "Greeley", at least that's what the captain called it. At the bottom is a rock fish, which looked like a sea bass of sorts. Delicious! The cheek meat, as advertised, was definitely the best part.
