Will Sword's boat.

And They're Off... (Shotgun Start - Thursday, 7:15 AM)

And They're Off... (Shotgun Start - Thursday, 7:15 AM)

The opening "toot" opened the tournament's official "lines wet" for the first day, although instead of trolling in the harbor, the boats revved their engines and rocketed out of the harbor. Traffic into and out of the harbor was put on hold by the Harbor Master and the boats rapidly settled into several groups defined merely as "fastest", "faster", and "not so fast". In under 10 minutes the fastest boats were out of the harbor and on their way to game fishing fame and glory, soon followed by their slower, more cautious competitors.

Andy Wearing and William Sword are taking a break with a cold drink to parch their dry throats after a fun four days of fishing.It is a tradition almost as old as mankind has been fishing the wide oceans, at the end of the day a beverage and some conversation can make even a bad day of fishing better, and a good day of fishing even better.

A successful end to the fishing portion of the competition, the boat captains agreed to one last group photograph, or two, or three. All of the captains were good sports, as usual, and the participation of our cousins from the Independent State of Samoa added that much more to our competition.

Congratulations to all the boat captains for a job well done, and we look forward to seeing them all at the next competition.
