Fishing Highlights June 5-12, 2010
Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tunas, Roosterfish
This week can only be described as spectacular! The ocean just came alive and great schools of bait were everywhere. Black Marlin, Blue Marlin and Sailfish were seen free jumping and feeding in the gigantic bait balls. There were great dinner stories to be told of double and triple header sailfish hookups. Yellowfin Tuna were also pulling on the lines; some in the 200 lb range. Roosterfish and Snappers were also hitting the baits inshore. It was indeed a week I will remember for some time. On the last day of the week two boats returned to the dock with a marlin and 11 sailfish release flags flying.
Kent Tomkins reeled in his first BLACK MARLIN which was estimated at 450 lbs. Kimberly Tomkins also scored her first BLACK MARLIN which went 350 lbs and Parr Brookover got his first BLACK MARLIN around 400 lbs. Both Mike Jordan and Riley Tomkins released their first PACIFIC BLUE MARLIN averaging around 300 lbs. Kurt Tomkins also released his first STRIPED MARLIN estimated at 200 lbs. Hanna, Kurt, Riley, Reagan, Shelly and Kimberly Tomkins all released their first PACIFIC SAILFISH. Billy Ray Suggs, Pate and Parr Brookover also released their first PACIFIC SAILFISH.
To sum up the week, 12 Marlin and 140 Sailfish were released. 100+ Yellowfin Tuna and also 28 Roosterfish were caught. We’ll see what next week brings; I am certain is gonna be a good one.Check out our photo gallery on Facebook and Flickr.
