Congrats to all the winners and guys that were able to get fish!!!! We had a great night just could not find fish with any size.

Does anyone know if there were any other pumpkins caught last night?

Same. We were in fish all night. Started out kinda sketchy when we found a cut vhf wire in the boat... then while fixing it all electronics went out.
Caught one rat and lost another right there at the the boat while waiting to be grabbed. We pulled off another 5 or 6 fish all on a tip rod right under the boat. Thankfully they were small. About 2:30 we hooked up to a solid fish and pulled the hoks after 15 minutes. Def a shark though... Big T-head I suspect.

Turtle, O, and SC.... Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drew and Tracy,
You two put on a 1st class event once again. What a turn out!!!! 96 boats in a swordfish tournament

Congrats to all the winners and big Quack out to Broadbill for being so quick to pick up and move for us. My crew was great and what a great night of fishing for us.We wanted to keep fishing but with 3 nice keepers on deck we were done and headed to the scales for the waiting game.Then with 1/2 hr or so to go we got bumped to 4th Good job L&H as well as the Quetzal

A big thumbs up for Drew and Tracey and not to forget Brad as the weigh master he really did a good job and was easy to work with

Thanks for the props, Quack. It's you guys that make my job so easy... It's pretty awesome to see everyone so stoked when they get to the scales. Congrats to everyone, especially the winners! As awesome as it was to see and weigh in 2nd Chance's fish, the highlight of my night was seeing all the peewee's gathered around L&H's fish - so a special congrats to the David family!

I suppose the only difference between your pumpkin and ours would be you have plenty still remaining, we do not.

Nice fish again man!!
