Not a single boat blanked. The 15 tournament boats caught a total of 31 blue marlin with an average size of 300 lbs each. All fish where released except for one that was tail wrapped and died during the fight. This fish was filleted and donated to the local hospital and to ICCA Mindelo, our charity goal in this tournament.
Today was a perfect day for one the Chinese teams. Team K. & R. Came in first place with 4 marlins. In second, again, with 3 marlins of which one was caught on a self pitched baitfish, was PENN Force One. These guys are now in the lead in the tournament.
