Tip - This is a photo contest, so get creative with your shots... the biggest fish doesn't always win!

SWEETNESS this should provide us with some pretty "interesting" photos to say the least with the guys on this forum!! Going to have to get creative...any limit on pics? can you enter a new picture/entry after each weekend of fishing or only enter one fish?

One fish? Or can we do a gang photo: say a Conga line of YF tunas dancing their way to the fillet table, doing the tuna salad shuffle. Creative enough?

Just an idea, no photos yet, but thinking about it.

Good luck, and don't forget your cameras.

[Mike]

conga line sounds like a great idea.. go for it!

26 tuna, 4 dolphin, a nice 25lber/caught out of hawk's kay marina on the southern girl

[Capt. JJ]

Caught Tuna Wahoo and Dolphin on the same Day. I just posted some of these on the other thread. We caught most of the dolphin and all the wahoo on live sardines, and we caught the tunas on feathers and cedar plugs at 8 kts. All off lucaya.

I will give it a shot here. Two pix attached caught within the required time window.

The first is a shot of a blackfin tuna about 9 lbs. that was caught June 8, on a Tormentor metal jig in 200' off Moselle Bank Bahamas alongside a nice red grouper caught on a jig ballyhoo combo. Neat to see these side by side. We caught about 10 of these blackfins that day, pretty much carbon copies 9 to 13 lbs.

The second pic is far more impressive. It's a shot of perfectly seared tuna using minimal supplies, utensils and equipment in the Bahamas. Best I ever had. For my trips to the Bahamas, some soy, squeeze tube wasabi, peanut oil and limes are as important as a sat phone. Notice the presentation...plastic cup cut down to size for dipping. Puuurrrrrfect.

These pics are off of Boca. surprise, surprise!!! covered up in sails when we want some meat in the box. Anyways, I jumped in with the camera. There were 4-5 sails around the boat but the most I got in one pic was the 2 sails and the pilchard on a circle hook. That pilchard is probly about to shit in this pic.

June 8, 2009 0800 ...Caught by Jeff Stanley from the guard vessel "Sherri Lynn" at the Gulf Gateway deepwater LNG port in West Cameron 603 block. 55" fork, 45# He was tossing dead flying fish to schoolie dolphin. It hit a scoolie at the boat. After a twenty minute fight with 30 lb test on a wore out shakesphere tidewater baitcaster, Jeff brought it to gaff. The 2nd pic is me with Jeff's fish, note the schoolies on deck. Lots of pretty dolphin and decent wahoo this trip. This was the biggest.
