Big ‘Dines, Dinky Hooks

Art Taylor brought his Searcher home August 3 after a five-day Izorline trip. Pro-staffer Wendy Tochihara was aboard, and she looked to have as many tuna on the boat as any man. Her best one was a 35.8-pound beauty. She said the albacore seemed to prefer big sardines and small hooks. She got hers with hooks in the 1/0 size.

There was a tie for first place. Larry Hicks of Corona and Chris Alcaraz of West Covina both had 39.2-pound albies, so they split first and second place rewards.

Hicks won the Izorline trophy for the best fish on that product. He got his with a sardine on a 3/0 Mustad hook tied to 30-pound Izorline on a Penn 4/0 reel and a Sabre six and a half-foot rod.

Mike Day of Phoenix won third place for a 38-pound longfin, and Howard Pukini of La Mirada had the trip's best yellowfin tuna, a 37-pounder.
