Day 1

Beautful Double Header Bite. Dave Sikorski on Camera Duties - Thanks Dave great shots.

Here comes a 57lber that ate the 7inch rasta bar with a soft headed green machine. BTW - note the custom Finrazor Rasta Gaff that mike made me. Awesome job on the gaff Mike. I love it.









Next came part two of the double header. Somehow yours truly managed to screw up this soft ball and we did not get the fish. This was caught on a chain of our 9inch black and green birds (trimmed Back) and a small green and yellow ilander



Here is a shot of Fishin Fool tilefishing just after we put the tuna in the boat



This guy kept finding us all day





This is not our tournament winner but we did mange a few little ones like this guy



Day two - After putting two out of three tunas in the boat on our triple header we finally figured out that our third fish was a white marlin. This was caught on a blue and white beckywitch. Nico took these pics







These guys hung around all afternoon. The two-tones were the ticket in the morning.

Squid...... how far back are you fishing your spreader bars? And how long a leader you pulling behind the pack of bulbs? Nice fish!!

[Squidnation]

this weekend we fished the spreader bars off the tip in a special rod holder that angles the rod straight out the side of the boat. the green machine is 6ft behind the bar.


the bar was just behind the flat and in front of the short rigger. probably 25-30ft back
