    I remember meeting Morten in Ascension Island back in 2017 and going aboard his boat for dinner one evening. While we were there he caught and released a grander right next to us; it was a sight to see. Great man with a great story and a great attitude. Attached is a pic from his computer the night of his big catch.

    It takes back for stand up fishing like this.
    I did enjoy working fish this way vs strapped in a chair and cranking some in.

    Of course that is when I still had a back to lean on.
    Getting old sux,,,,

    That is a BIG fish, and I don't think my back would stand up to it either !

    As i mentioned here I was having trouble attaching those PDF documents to this forum, and thus wondering if anyone was having trouble with the link I provided?

    The creation of Offshore Hunter is an interesting story of Morten's dream,...and the first wave of his remarkable big fish successes.

    I found a way to covert the PDF's into 8.5x11 jpg images that are printable and readable if anyone would like to see them,...or I could post them if enough interest is there??

    He has a pretty successful fishing story for his vessel,..(a sail and motor powered vessel)
