Cute Baby Sailfish!

How cool is that fish!
Chris Fuller, who was aboard the Petrolero, was fishing for tuna in the Sea of Cortez and using a live Sardine and 40-pound-test line. After the ravenous little sailfish grabbed the five-inch bait, it performed the typical sailfish acrobatics for a very brief period before being pulled aboard, photographed and released. Its weight was estimated at about three pounds and scientists, after inspecting the photo, guessed its age at about 4 months.
