Winds were steady at 25 knots (29 mph) and waves were swelling to 5 feet and all other boats had long ago sought safe harbor. I just lost a long battle with 10-lb False Albacore after it surfaced and circled my motor, snapping the line. So I was happy to see someone else stop by for a visit... in fact a half dozen of them playing in the waves, 10 feet from my boat. Bottlenose dolphins.
