Toured The Boat
"There's some good quality tuna on porpoise right now," Skipper Jeff DeBuys said after he returned Independence to Point Loma Sportfishing January 5. "We had great weather the last seven days."
The 10-day Accurate charter produced two fish over 200 pounds.
Victor Rosasco of Stockton took home top honor in the jackpot for a 252-pound tuna that bit right before sunset. Victor used a 6/0 Owner Super Mutu hook, 100-pound Blackwater fluorocarbon with 100 yards of topshot P-Line, and a Penn 30 N reel modified by Cal Sheets.
"I came on this trip to catch a 200-pounder," remarked Victor. "And I got him on New Year's Day. He bit at about 5:30 in the evening and the fight lasted about 45 minutes."
Mike Pearce of Fountain Valley took second for a 209-pound yellowfin.
"I had good help," said Mike. "My Penn Super 12 Narrow reel modified by Cal Sheets worked great. The fish wanted to tour the boat, he took me around five times."
Third place went to Dan Caves for a 175-pound tuna; his best fish ever.
"I had the top place for jackpot for three full days," said Dan. "Until Victor waxed me on the last day! It was my first 10-day trip. I had a great time."
