sailfish on light tackle

It is with a heavy heart I would like to dedicate yesterday's trip and the sailfish we caught to a client's son of mine that passed away 6 days before he was going to fish with me yesterday. If he was on board I know he would have caught this fish because I would of handed him the rod first. When I told my wife what happened she told me he was on board with you all day in spirit. I am not afraid to say I almost cried like a baby in the middle of the restaurant we were at. So I had an awesome first mate on board today he did not talk a lot but man can he wire a sailfish.
