Mark will not eat tuna fish from a can. He will not eat it, Sam I am. But put it in front of him, in its fresh and restaurant steak-filet form, he will eat it quicker than even I can. It is delicious. 

So here is his Indian Ocean Tuna Fishing story via photos: 

After setting out on a small fishing boat, they caught one fish a piece, and divided them between the three of them. The largest was a 40 lb-er. Here's a picture for a size comparison: 

*a crew-chief in Mark's flight, don't know his name: 

While fighting one fish, reeling it in, one of the guys had been been fighting it for about 3 minutes. Then it stopped fighting. They reeled in just the head!! Mark said there were sharks everywhere in that water. So to be able to take the entire fish and leave the head in one bite, that is one dang-big shark!! 

I will not get in that water if ever given the chance... EVER.  

So Mark packed home his tuna-steaks in a foam cooler he bought before he left and just kept packing new ice around it for the following 2 days. When he got home and cleaned the fish off even more, we couldn't smell ANYTHING. It was so fresh! I love that fresh fish don't have a smell. It's lovely. And very bearable. 

So Mark grilled two 8 oz. filets, after I marinated them. Even Buckwheat got a sample. ... he's really our King's food-tester. ha! Sweet little, lucky Buckwheat.
