Day 1: 63 of 134 boats fished. The top white marlin weighed all came from the Ocean City, MD weigh in. Even in Cape May most of the boats we talked to fished south down by the Poorman's Canyon. 88 lbs is the leading white marlin caught by Woodie Klein on the Billfisher. The Cracker with angler Chris Schultz took second with an 82 lbs white marlin. 3rd place is a three way tie at 69 lbs with Lil' Man, Toplesss and Singularis. That weight is not likely to hold up as many white marlins were caught and released on day 1. No blue marlin were boated. The boat Tarheel had 2 of the top 3 tuna at 71 and 61 lbs. All In has the second place tuna at 66 lbs. Four dolphin were weighed with the largest fish Shark Bytes' 25 pounder. Two wahoo were weighed with Shelly II having the largest at 49 lbs.
Some of the boats with significant billfish releases on Day One include Shark Byte with 15 white marlin releases and Miss Annie with five. Toplesss, Dave Anderson's Krazy Salts, Marty Judge's Judge and Danny Burt's Pumpin' Hard 58 each released four white marlin while Mike Penza's Oil Slick, Pat Healy's Viking 70 and Bob Mormile's Lizanne each released three white marlin. Susan McCart's Reel Joy released two white marlin and a blue marlin.
