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 I talked to fished south down by the Poorman's Canyon. 88lb is the leading white caught by Woodie Klein on the Billfisher The Cracker with angler Chris Schultz took second with an 82 lb white. 3rd place is a three way tie at 69 lbs with Little Man, Topless and Singularis.
