Friday Firsts

First place white marlin, first place wahoo, and the second qualifying blue of the tournament. Friday has been another hectic day here at Harbour Island, after two quiet evenings. The Hatterascal brought in a double-header of sorts: a white good for a first place tie at 81 lbs., caught by angler Rodger Mooney, worth $200,000, and a first place wahoo at 47 lbs., caught by angler Bob Hoste. Less than an hour later, the Press Time out of Ocean City hoisted a 534 lb. blue onto the scales, taking a bite out of Robert Lockwood's winnings. Angler Ronald Marquette's fish is currently worth $130,000.
