Congrats to the stuff it II, Chasin Tail and the Jichi, they kicked arse out there. We were a couple of squid in the belly away from 3rd place. We had 2 releases and weighed a fish that weighed exactly 100lbs. It was fun and we were glad just to be up there near the top.

Sword Donkey · 09-11-2006, 11:56 AM

Congrats to all the winners. Sword Donkey fished with gssk7179 and other forum members get er done, 34 Intrepid, and surburbancammando420. We had a good showing getting third, but loosing on time and like gsk7170 said, loosing by one squid meal. ( our fish weighted 100 even) Was a great tourney with some impressive fish weighted. Bite was slow for most, but we got lucky with catching 2 of our 3 fish within 5 minutes of lines out on both nights.

FYI- a 61 inch fish weighted exactly 100lbs even. He was skinny and had two sardines in his belly. I'm gonna get redemption via grilled swordfish tonight.

First time I fished in a tournament and pretty much stunk up the joint! Fished with a crew of 5 guys who combined have caught 89 swords the past two years but the bite was off for us. Two shark cut offs and one slashed squid night one and a close to 20 minute fight with a hammerhead one hour before lines out on Sat.

Damn, the way the shark was fighting, we all though the comeback with a fat Slob was underway. What a disappointment.

That is 4 straight trips that I have been skunked. After shelling out the cash needed for the tourny along with the last two trips before the tourney, kinda getting discouraged.

FishGuyDave · 09-12-2006, 02:35 PM

New to the forum, but I wanted to thank the tournament folks and the boats and crews that let us take biological samples from seven fish at the tournament. Congrats to the winners!
