Bahamas Day 2

Day 2 in Paradise. Started off with a bang getting 2 nice wahoo. Got on the reef for a drift and got muttons, strawberry groupers, cudas until the sharks showed up and they were hungry. In the afternoon we put away the fishing gear and got out the snorkel gear and look for lobster, and that worked out well and we had ourselves set up for a great dinner. Blackened wahoo, Grilled lobster tails in garlic butter, conch fritters with mac cheese and peas and rice.
