My cord for my digital is at the office. I have shots of Frick and Frack's fish on the scale, as well as some shots of Vitamin Sea pulling their 2nd fish in and both of them on the scale. Will post tomorrow am.

Tournament was a blast, great weather and plenty of bites.

We had our first hook-up at 4pm and had 4 more bites before the day ended. Just wasn't our day, 0 for 5 shots.

Congrats to the the guys who put them onboard.

Had a awesome day on the water and finally caught a daytimer. We had lots of action and ended up catching 2 fish to get second place. Congrats to those that caught fish and congrats to Freddy David on Frick&Frack for getting the win. Hopefully someone will post some pics.

Congrats to everyone who placed!!

Way to go. I was a spectator out there off of Hollywood toward the end of the day and heard the radio chatter. I was unable to fish the tourney but fished Sat. night.

Cool pics. Congrats to the winners!

We barely even had a chance to fish on the Hailey Ryan. Engine issues forced us limp out to the grounds at 12kts from Boca. We didn't make our first drop 'til about 4pm. Had 1 hooked-up for a few minutes on our second drop of 5 total. We even had a humorous run-in with Homeland Security's Midnight Express boat.

I'll post a full report this evening.

Congratulations to this event's winners!

PURPLE FEVER · 08-04-2008, 01:05 PM

Great Tournament Skip. We pulled the hook early and had another bite later on (possibly a shark). It was a beautiful day. Cant wait for the next one.

Congratulations to the winners.
