My dad always tells me his story about catching his 350lb tuna from his torpedo hatch door when we go fishing. Heard it a thousand times and it never gets old.

I caught a Marlin off the fantail (stern) of the Destroyer I was on while we were anchored in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. I tell the story to my family every once in a while. I know they've all heard it before, but it's still a great tail to tell...
