Monster Yellow fin Tuna were once again caught by our angler’s.
Lloyd Griffin III and his wife Mary brought their sons Ralph and Lloyd together with their wives, Kristine and Heather, on a family vacation. Lloyd III and Mary both caught their first Pacific Sailfish on the same day to be followed by Lloyd the following day for his first Pacific Sailfish. Ralph then finished the week off with his first Black Marlin and a whopping monster Yellowfin Tuna of 237lbs.
After a long journey from England Terry Cline, Bob Nicklin, Lee Macklin and their friend from America, Al Sherrod were eager to get out and catch some fish. Terry started off all the action with a huge Yellowfin tuna of 93lbs. Bob and Lee going 1 on 1 and each caught a Black Marlin. Al then caught his first Black Marlin while Terry and Bob had some fun with Sailfish. We look forward to seeing them back later in the year.
Bob and his son Scott Sakuta returned for their annual visit together with Leo Corrieri. Leo bagged himself a 40lb Tuna when they went inshore fishing on their first day out. Scott then finally caught his first Black Marlin after having caught a number of Blue Marlin here. Bob caught himself a giant Roosterfish of 60lbs on another one of their inshore ventures.
