"Things look good down south," said Independence skipper Jeff DeBuys after docking the rig at Pt. Loma Sportfishing October 4. "We fished on The Ridge and at Alijos Rocks, and we had a banner trip."
Bob O"Neil of Valencia won first place for a 121-pound tuna. He flylined a squid to catch that big boy, on a Hayabusa 8/0 hook. He used 60-pound Izorline on a TLD 30 reel and a Calstar 800 XH rod.
Steve Zierlinski of Queens, NY was second, for a 113.8-pounder, and Norman Chibana of Gardena was right behind him with a 113.6-pound yellowfin.
