Gamex 09 Day 2
Another big day for gamex with 20 marlin being tagged for the day, one at 175kg. Plenty of drama's on the high seas with a few people going to hospital with hooks in them. Other drama's were one 'favourite' boat taking on water, resolving the problem to some degree and then deciding to return to the marina to check things out. At Helby bank the call went out that the motor had cooked and they only just had enough power for radio, luckily reel teaser was out doing their night fish and towed them in. They were just getting to them at about 9.30 last night and had a lot of people concerned, but things seemed to work out, will find out more today. Not sure how many sails as I was busy chopping up a multitude of spaniards. On the spaniard front, there was one 16kg fish weighed in on 6kg and also a 33.5kg on 15kg, which is a pending state record. After filleting 20 spaniards last night, I can effectively say I never want to see one again. (which isn't going to be the case ;( )
Cheers,
