fishing on the weekend

This weekend the weather looked kinda rough so me and my friends thought we should go fishing the only boat we had was my small boat which was a 14 foot wahoo kinda like a boston wayler.Which I did't really think was safe to go out side the reef with but my friends never really said to me about it being to rough so we went anyway. We had to stop at Harbor House for bait before we went headed to Harbor House as we got the we where already pretty beat up from all the waves but i got the bait anyway. We finally made it out the reef and got are lines in the water and where headed straight out of site of land. We where just cruising and the back of the boat was still going under the water from when we left the dock, i was looking in the sky and i say a bird and as i looked at him i saw him dive. He was directly above us and the rod went off, my friend grabbed the rod and started reeling. I could see the fish jumping behind the boat so we new it was a mahi. When he got close to the boat i grabbed the line and flung him in the boat it was getting kind of breezy so we decided to head in. When pulled into my canal we ran out of gas so i swam the boat in. We couldn't say that we had a bad day of fishing because we caught something rather than nothing.
