    Damn

    45 blues raised by 4 boats certainly qualifies as epic. St T is about as consistent as any fishery can get. The Boyscout was a blast this year. Too bad these numbers weren't there on the August moon to really make the event interesting.

    Boy Scout tournament saw 35 boats release 159 blue marlin. Not so good for some of us but Revenge with Capt Mike Lemon and crew released 12. Where else in the world would you see 35 boats release 159 blue marlin in August ?
    Granted more bites now but fewer boats competing for the same fish.

    Does it get any better? MAN!

    Unreal... 14 boats released 52 blue marlin today out of 140 blues seen. 8 out of the 14 boats released at least 4 blues each.

    What would be the main tactics being used in this fishery? Are the guys primarily pitch baiting or are they straight up bait or lure fishing?

    thanks
