Someone kissed me everywhere and she turned into a princess named Inta.I was not a frog,I was a prince.Burica on the Panamanian border has gone off huge the last few days.the 2 or 3 boats that have been working the area with Thumper are getting double digit shots at Marlin and Sails.We lost Inta’s marlin yesterday 50′ off the transom.May God have mercy on me and the crew.
