SEEKER CHARTER RETURNS WITH VARIETY (082510)!!! In an unusual turn of events for Alijos Rocks, big tuna didn't come the usual way for the Shogun. The boat docked at Fisherman's Landing August 25 under owner-skipper Norm Kagawa's hand. Joe Pfister of Seeker and several Seeker pro-staffers were aboard. "No kite fishing," said Norm to dock reporter Bill Roecker. "The kite was dead as a doornail."
"We got lots of Yellowtail at the 13 Spot," he continued, "and 86 big Yellowtail at Cedros. The Alijos tuna bit from lunch to about 4 PM."
Few of the Tuna were big ones. The best one was a 115-pounder caught by Nanette Smith of Huntington Beach. She bagged her big boy on a sardine and a 3/0 Gamakatsu J hook. She fished with 40-pound Seaguar fluorocarbon leader, 40-pound Big Game line and 80-pound Line One Spectra on an Avet LX reel and a GRUSA Monster Mag 85 rod.
"He fought for about a half-hour," she said. "He bit after a long soak and stayed on the port side. About halfway through the fight he got tailwrapped. He came up midship."
Brian Davis of Hayden Lake, ID won second place and the Seeker Trophy for the best fish on a Seeker rod.
Noah Nabors, 13 and Davis' grandson, won third place for a 69.6-pound Yellowfin. He also got a couple of Wahoo (one on mono) and ten Yellowtail on jigs, he said. Noah goes to Talbert Middle School, where he plays basketball.
Jam Bair of Huntington Beach won the Rollo jackpot for qa 35,2-pound Yellowtail, a fish he caught on a five-inch Big Hammer plastic swimbait in Channel Island 'Chovy color.
