Day 2 Recap
230 Boats fished today. The scales open at 4PM and what a start. First fish in is a blue marlin on the Let it Ride. A GRANDER – 1010.5 lbs. Angler is James Kontos. Fishaholic weighed in a 69.5 white marlin. Sea Toy is next with a 92 lb white marlin to take a great lead for the 1st place prize of $800,000. Tommy Farrel was the angler on the 92lb white. The first 2 marlin of the day raised the bar for the rest of the tournament. These fish will be hard to beat..
Waste Knot was next with a 53lb tuna and a 65.5 white marlin.Ramsi is next with a 58.5lb white marlin. Special Purpose weighs in a 65lb tuna. Krazy Salt weighs a 66lb white marlin. 1 hour and 45 minutes into the weigh in and both top marlin from yesterday have been surpassed.
Shelly K has a 51lb tuna, Ravaganza has a 65lb white marlin and Legasea has a 67lb white marlin.and a 68ln tuna. DA Sea weighs in a 79 lb white marlin to move into second place. 11 minutes later Kingfisher hung an 80.5 lb white marlin to take second and push DA Sea to 3rd. Then Brian Roberts on the Shelly II brought in a 97.5 lb white marlin to take 1st place. From 6:30 to 7 PM the top 3 white marlin changed 3 times.
Alican has a 63.5 lb white marlin, Reel Compromise has a 65 lb white. and a 66.5 lb tuna for Judge
Sea Note has a76lb White Marlin . Grand Slam weighs a 70lb tuna for 3rd place. Tighten Up has a 53lb tuna. Sea Mistress has 2 tuna 64 and 68lbs. Finatic has a 72.5lb white .Wirenut has a 23.5 lb dolphin.Sea Hag brings in a 73 lb tuna to take second place in that division. Recon has a 22.5 lb dolphin. 1 hour and 15 minutes to go in regulation time. I wonder if they will finish by 9:15 or go to 11 like last night. I'm sure most crews got very little sleep last night. Trophy Hunter brings in a 68 lb white.
Weigh in should go faster after today because the leading fish are so big. When you need a white over 80lbs to get into 3rd, you need a really big fish.3rd place dolphin is 43lbs, 3rd place tuna is 68.5 and 3 place blue marlin is the only open spot. Reel Passion weight a 69lb white.
18lb dolphin for Pool Party. 25lbs for American Lady. and Smoker has a 27 lb. Casworth Express weighs a 67.5 tuna.
Scales close at 9:15PM, right on time. Tomorrow is another day.
