    LET IT RIDE - 1010 MARLIN - MOLDCRAFT SUPER CHUGGER

    Caught by:
    James Kontos, on the Let It Ride
    August 3rd, 2010


    "that lure has always been one of my favorites, and now it provided me with a experience of a lifetime."

    Caught On:
    Black and Clear Mold Craft Super Chugger

    1010.5 POUND BLUE MARLIN
    WINS $423,040.00!!!!!!
    WHITE MARLIN OPEN TOURNAMENT,
    OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND




    Myself and my father were fishing the White Marlin Open out of Ocean City Md. We were trolling in the Spencer Caynon in 300 Fathoms. In our right short position we were dragging a Black and Clear Mold Craft Super Chugger. At 9:15 AM a BIG blue marlin came up and pounced on it. One hour a two minutes later she was in our boat, and we were off to the scale. When she was weighed, she came in at an incredible 1010.5 Lbs. that lure has always been one of my favorites, and now it provided my with a experience of a lifetime.
    Thanks Mold Craft!

    Reports mention the lure was rigged with a single mustad 7692 hook as well. The biggest size 7692 is what, 10/0? and it's lighter wire than the 7691 too. You'd need a real careful touch wiring a money fish that big on one.

    PS. Just watched the video. That was some deft wiring there, and well taken gaff shots too. Well deserved win!
