The boat gently rocks as we scan the horizon. Sunlight glints off the waves. A flash of silver catches our eye. The reel screams as line peels off. The rod bends double. Muscles strain as we fight the unseen force. Slowly a shape emerges from the depths. Sleek and powerful the tuna breaks the surface. Water droplets sparkle in the air. With a final heave we bring our prize aboard. Grins all around as we admire the beautiful fish. Another successful day on the Atlantic.
