Dampier billfish shootout

I hear one of my new Karratha fishing buddies had a bit of a day out yesterday, may as well give him a bit of a pump coz I think he deserves it with his efforts.  54 boats in the comp, 8 billfish tagged for the day and he landed 3 and dropped 2 (due to a triple hookup) to be 1000 points clear on the leader board.  Looking outside its blowing a good 15 + easterly (which may not seem much to you perthies, but it seems to do horrible things with the tides and swell up here from what I've seen)

Just thought I'd commend him on his efforts, sure he'll speak up when he gets in!

That's good going! I was supposed to be fishing it but had to attend a wedding in cairns instead.
Skippers sent me some pics. Sure looks ugly out there.

Well done team Wolf Pack, a worthy winner considering your situation, we where hoping to pip you guys at the line with a few marlin but didn't see SFA on day three so it's good to see you boys win the cash. Anyone have total numbers on fish tagged? couldn't have been more than 20, 4 on day 2 maybe 7 on day 3?
