Aquaviva Mobile Junior Report, 3/3 billfish

TCAT · 06-30-2012, 10:56 PM

Aquaviva, Mobile Juniors tournament, June 30, 2012.

What an awesome trip. I'll be processing a ton of video over the next few days. Went 3/3 on billfish. Ended up with a blue and two whites! Two young anglers both got their first billfish today. One of those anglers, Shane Martin, caught a blue and a white. Shane took top catch and release and overall tournament champion!!

I saw two more billfish today with one being one of the largest free swimming blue marlin I've ever seen in my life. I've seen a few. I cringed at the prospect of this fish taking one of the baits and then have one of my juniors go into battle.

I've got some really good video and UW go pro. Give me some time to process and I'll post up as soon as possible.

3/3 of billfish is totally outstanding!! What do you think made for such an epic day? Was it your location (i.e. water clarity, weed line, bait in water etc), lure choice etc.... Would love to hear why you think it all came together for you as I am always trying to learn.
