Sportfishing July/30/2011
Lots of fish just not to big, with over
60 boats competing this year there
was only 1 marlin that qualified in all
3 days of the tournament, But that’s
fishing you never know when the big
Marlin is going to bite.
Day 1 Great conditions blue flat
seas but we were having trouble
finding the bigger skippies we
wanted for a big Marlin sure you
can catch big Marlin with smaller
bait but you will have much better
luck with bigger baits. Steve Torres
hooked up a nice Blue Marlin
around 1pm but not quite a qualifier
but still a nice fish so Freddy
released her and that was about it
for day 1. Day 2
We had much better luck in the
morning caught 8 big skippies right
