Trip Summary

We joined in the all crew fishing competition organised in Black River representing the last competition for the season.Out of a total of 18 boats the Billfish team came out as the boat with most catches.Another team caught a blue marlin and won the top prize.There were 5 marlin strikes in total and some dorados and wahoos were caught on other boats,some came back empty handed.We caught 2 Dorado's and shortly after we raised a marlin that came on a short corner lure and then hit the short rigger lure.Unfortunately the hook pulled out after the fish had taken some line.Later on we found some schools of yellowfin and skipjack tunas and caught another 14 fishes.With winter and its windy days moving in we should start seeing more Dorado's
