Big Al Scow’s annual “Fisherman’s Pals & Gals” trip returned to Fisherman’s Landing May 28 after a 15-day Excel trip with 27 anglers and skipper Justin Fleck at the helm. The trip found nine tuna over 200 pounds at the Hurrican3 Bank, and scored limits of wahoo.
“The wahoo weren’t as bad this time as they were last trip,” said Justin to dock reporter Bill Roecker. “They weren’t biting everyone off all the time. The tuna fishing was better.”
Gary Gillingham of Accurate won third place for a 206-pounder. He got that one with a sardine on a 6/0 Owner Offshore hook, 130-pound Seaguar Premier fluorocarbon, 130-pound Line One spectra and Accurate ATD 30 reel and a Calstar 770 XXXH rod.
Ted Kamenecka of Palm Beach Gardens, FL bagged a 246-pound non-eligible tuna. It fought for two hours, he said, and was his best fish ever. He used a 6/0 ringed Gorilla hook on 130-pound pink Yo-Zuri fluorocarbon, 130-pound Line One spectra on an Accurate 50 W reel and a Super Seeker 6364 XXXXH rail rod to take his best fish in two hours.
Roland Reesby of San Clemente spent two hours one day pulling on a 204-pounder. It bit on a flying fish under the kite, on a 12/0 Mustad offset hook tied to a Basil topshot of 130-pound Momoi. He used 130-poundIzorline spectra on a Tiagra 50 W reel and a Calstar 755 XH rod.
Chris Perez of Westchester caught a 201-pound yellowfin tuna after a scrap of an hour and a half. His best tuna ate a chunk on an Owner 8/0 ringed Super Mutu hook tied to 130-pound Blackwater fluorocarbon and 130-pound Izorline spectra on an Accurate ATD 30 reel and a Super Seeker 2 x 4 rod.
