Backlash with Captain Steve Richardson out of Virginia Beach fishing center released 41 whites and a Blue Marlin...Multiple boats with 18 - 20 releases....Unreal....Bob
Holy CHitballss... Any intel where... Still down around the cigar, 000s, or at the canyon???

Looking at OI and the Tunas....
Still undecided.....
North Wall of the Norfolk Canyon today...probably will be a little south tomorrow with the way the water is moving...600 line - 620 line...50 - 100 fathoms....Bob
Yea I guess I could have gone 25 for 26 if I was J hookin too. Just looked at the pics of the Waterman on the VBFC website and it shows the j rigs hangin there. Its ashame some guys still use j hooks marlin fishin just because they are not in a tournament. At LEAST half those fish are DEAD!!! I hope Backlash and the other boats weren't doin the same. Just my opinion.
A LOT of boats are still using J hooks for marlin when outside of tournements. And unless the person hooking them is a complete IDIOT then half the fish are NOT dead. J-Hooks do not gut hook half the fish... and never have...
