Roy Rose docked Royal Polaris at Fisherman's Landing October 17 after a limited load 10-day trip with 21 anglers. They had limits of yellowtail, yellowfin and dorado, along with a good bunch of wahoo.

"We fished near San Pablo, at the 13 Spot and the lower banks," said Roy, "and we saw non-biting fish and porpoise down there. The Ridge was good for tuna from 18 to 35 pounds."

Steve Emmert of Dublin won first place for a 53-pound wahoo.

"He took me up to the bow," said Steve," and then back down the side through all the tangles. The whole side was bendo, it was wahoo pandemonium."

Emmert scored with a red and gold Raider jig on 50-pound Izorline. He used 80-pound Line One Spectra backing on an Avet HX reel and a Calstar 700 XH rod.

Ron Lewis of San Francisco won second place for a 45-pound wahoo. Nicole Ramirez of San Diego tied with Tom Benedetti of Seattle for third place with a 43-pound wahoo. Dr. Lester Quan of Hillsborough flylined a 55-pound wahoo with a sardine on a 4/0 Hayabusa hook, but wasn't entered in the jackpot.
