Andy Cates tried Alijos Rocks for the third time in this early season and came away with a big score of tuna, including a half-dozen 100-pounders.

"On the first day was got seven tuna to 90 pounds," said the Red Rooster III skipper July 13 at H&M Landing. "We had 22 anglers on the eight-day trip."

"On the second day we got 45 tuna to 100 pounds. On the third day we got 40 more to 100 pounds. It looks good for future trips."

David Greeno of Long Beach won the jackpot for a 122.5-pound yellowfin tuna.

"It seemed like it took an eternity," he said at the scales. "I was using a single-speed reel."

He said he tossed out a sardine on a 4/0 Mustad hook, tied to 40-pound Ande line on a Penn 3/0 reel and a seven-foot Sabre rod. The fight went 45 minutes.

Frank Calas of Pasadena fished a sardine on 50-pound line to bag a 105.6-pounder, and Thomas Nazaretian of Hollywood claimed third place with a 103.7-pounder. He used a sardine on 40-pound line. He said he got worked, but he got his fish.
