Captain Dean Panos · 08-14-2006, 08:14 PM

Thanks Joe - It pays to be lucky sometime. We had good karma the whole tourney, I'll tell you the story one day!

Shark Tagger · 08-14-2006, 08:24 PM

I look forward to your next report capt.

DORADOsteve · 08-14-2006, 08:42 PM

Some pretty respectable catches!

Congrats all.

Nick C · 08-14-2006, 09:24 PM

Why was first place 7 releases and not the 324lber?
Not sure of the rules...

Captain Dean Panos · 08-14-2006, 09:48 PM

100 points per release or 1 point per pound but minimum size is 60 inches (~100 pounds) for a killed fish. This minimizes killing a lot of the smaller fish.

Verado06 · 08-14-2006, 09:50 PM

Ya I like that format. I don't like seeing 47 inch fish at the scales.

Relentless33 · 08-14-2006, 11:21 PM

They should apply that same thing to the tourney's up here !!!

Congrats Capt.

We have actually hooked two on fly but only for a few seconds. The last guy that booked ( the one I borrowed the rod from Eddie) actually cancelled due to storms that night but he is rebooking in Sept. Hopefuly we'll catch one on the long rod! (I just hope its small)
