711# BLUE from OI

[TunaTeaser1]

Jim Horning on the Hog Wild caught a nice blue yesterday. Man there's been a good bite out of OI recently hasn't there? We'll try our luck on one tomorrow. Congratulations Jim and crew.

Not that I'am starting any sh&T but do you know what they did with the fish I mean do they use it for research and was this a tourney fish ...........whatever the answer is......that is one hell of a catch.

i dont know for fact but the banner behind it does say "bacardi billfish tourny" could have been a old banner though

I don't know of any tourney's going on because I know the Pirates Cove Billfish Tournament is not till August 12th.

Without knowhing the story behind the catch, my guess would be that the fished died during the fight so that is why they brought it in.

I suspect Matt is right, the fish died. This Captain has been around and knows the deal.

Tuna Teasor . Good Luck tomorrow, The "new" boat looks good...

Thanks, today was the first day I'd seen it. Admittedly I was a little skeptical but I think it gives a little character to an otherwise old boat.

Dave I saw some activity on the tagnstick today but didn't see you...is that boat fishing tomorrow? My job this summer in Richmond is for what was the old Branch Cabell Group...Charlie's name has been floating around recently hah. Small world.

Good luck today. Yes, the TagNStick fished, but I could not go due to bad back and house full if guests this week. I will check in..
