Never know what you may come up in your spread... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It may have been a GPS drop, but more likely it was jettisoned by the drug runners when law enforcement detected them. My ship is conducting counter narcotics operations off Central and South America right now. Dumping their cargo and making a run for it is the tactic of the go-fasts when they are detected. We've had a couple of guys ditch their loads when our helo flies up on them. Those are 1000kg loads of coke, at $33,000 per kilo, not "small change" bales of marajuana.

When not chasing the smugglers, the fishing is pretty good off Costa Rica, Panama and Columbia. We've released a couple of 150lb class sailfish, lost a couple nice marlin and one huge yellow fin, caught (and mostly released except for flight deck barbecue Sundays) all the dodos and schoolie yellow fin you can shake a stick at.
