Slice of Saipan Life

On the way home from hiking and swimming yesterday afternoon Joe and I stopped at Smiling Cove to watch the weigh in for the fishing derby. Scott had told me about the derby the night before and I figured it would be fun to watch some of the boats come in.

We got there just in time to watch them pull this monster out of one of the boats:

When I took a look at the board listing all of the competitors and the size of the fish caught so far I noticed a familar boat name:

The Padre de Familia belongs to my good friend and uncle Cal Reyes. If you've been keeping up with this blog since last December, Cal is the one who took Emily and I trolling. He also gave us that huge mahi mahi back in April. Oh yeah, he also let me borrow his truck in December and his son let us borrow his truck for six weeks when we first back arrived in April.

So yeah, as of yesterday afternoon, Cal's boat had caught the largest wahoo. Hopefully he can hold off the rest of the competition during today's fishing. I'd love to see him win.

Go Cal!
