Joe Pfister and his friends from Seeker Rods returned aboard the Shogun with skipper Norm Kagawa August 24, after a successful five-day trip that found hard-biting yellowtail at the Benitos Islands.

Marlene McClary of Costa Mesa beat the boys with her 43-pound yellowtail. She said it ate a sardine on a 7/0 Mustad hook tied to 50-pound Ande line and 60-pound Izorline Spectra. She used a TLD 20 reel and a Seeker Black Steel 6465 rod, so she also won the Seeker Trophy for the best fish on a Seeker rod.

Sixteen-year-old Josh Cocis of Brea goes to Brea Linda High where he plays soccer. Josh was on his first long range trip with the Seeker group, and he won second place in the jackpot for his 41.8-pound yellowtail after it took a mackerel on a 5/0 Mustad hook. It took about 15 minutes to whip the fish, and it was his best fish ever.

Jimmie Woo of Diamond Bar won third place for a 35.6-pound yellowtail.
