ANOTHER TEN (121910)!!! Jeff DeBuys brought Independence home to Pt. Loma Sportfishing right after the American Angler cleared the weigh-in slab. The boat had been out on a 10-day trip with the Chi Chi's Arriba Tuna Club and chartermaster Pete Wallace of Huntington Beach. There were 29 anglers aboard. "This trip was another ten on the scale," said DeBuys. "We're still experiencing excellent fishing and weather down south, and our anglers got 'er done." Garrett Gesselman of Huntington Beach got his best fish ever to take first place. He took the 169.8-pounder with a "man bait," a mackerel on an 8/0 ringed Hayabusa hook. He used one of the boat's loaner rigs to do the job: 100-pound Izorline and 130-pound Izorline Spectra on an Avet 50 N reel and a Seeker 6465 XXH rod. Gesselman wanted to thank the crew for their assistance and said the fight lasted 35 minutes. Bob Carter of Granada Hills won second place for a 164-pounder, and Joe Armstead of Mountain View won third place for a 163.8-pound Yellowfin Tuna.
