Thank you Dave very memoriable times with you and Nick!

Tuna Derby 2011

Monday, November 7th, 2011

A great competition, we held first place for the first two days with a 93.55 kg yellow caught by Brian and just got beaten by two yellows taken from the same boat on the last day, both just 200 grams apart in weight by 2 kgs… So we ended up 3rd biggest yellowfin , 7th biggest yellowfin and 9th biggest yellowfin as well as 2nd boat overall. The scoring was based on only two yellows weighed per day per boat and not total catch, otherwise we would have won top boat as we consistently caught more tuna than most other boats.

“Dave once again thanks for a brilliant time over the duration of the competition. All three days with BIG fish and plenty of fun. The work rate and tenacity of yourself and Nick will always be hard to beat.  Makulu fluorocarbon is the one to land the BIG fish with and be a winner.”

YELLOWFIN

What a day, the best weather we have had all season so far and great fishing. Robin our charter for the day was in to multiple yellowfin to the point where he could no longer catch any more due to fatigue! - or perhaps we just put him into too many tuna….

” Thanks for a excellent day out, definately my best fishing day ever! Capt. Dave’s experience certainly pays off and provided great action the whole day!”
