Kenny McCoy and his crew came to the dock yesterday(Daybreak Marina) with a 186# YFT, and a 90# YFT. They also tagged a Blue est. 500# or so. The big tuna was an open water bite. There were several people there taking pics. I didn't have my camera  He also said they went through a very bad storm

| talked to the angler saturday at orange beach marina. he said the tuna came a little ways off the marlin rig, and ate a naked islander trolled behind a bird. I didn't realize they tagged a blue, but he did mention they had a nice sail bite. saw atleast three fish cleaned this weekend over 100"s that all came off or around the marlin rig. Bite really seems to be warming up. hope it stays through this weekends tournament

Just came to the conclusion that the angler was a good buddy of mine and he said they didnt catch a blue, jumped off a sail and caught the yellowfin on a blue/white islander behind a bird. He said that they were fishing on a rip that was 100 feet or better across at some points. Said it was a very good dirty blue green to perfect cobalt blue push. He said they didnt have a whole lot of time to spend there but they could have stayed and caught 20-30 pound dolphin all day long. Sounds like the bite has finally taken off!

The "Reel McCoy" tagged an est. 500# Blue Marlin this past weekend...I talked to Kenny and the crew at the dock.. and they were flying a Blue Marlin flag W/ a tag flag below it when they came in. The tuna were taken to Outcast and weighed...90# and 186#.

| sounds like there were two different 186's. the one i was referring to was caught on a gamefisherman walkaround at orange beach marina. great looking boat. in any event, great fish for both crews, and congrats to the real mccoy on the marlin
