After a brief one-night vacation, we are back at it again. We returned from our annual Baja fish gear 10 day. I would like to personally like to thank Ed Tschernoscha for another successful trip, as well as all who joined us for another new years fishing event. Jackpot winners were as follows: 1st place goes to Valadimir Kustudic of Vista, Ca, with a 180.2 Yellowfin, 2nd place goes to Kerry Iwanaga of PLACENTIA, ca, with a 177.8 Yellowfin, and 3rd place goes to Ivan Fujinaka of SAN FRANSISCO, with a 167.6 Yellowfin.. Everyone that participated in our Christmas special trip brought home several tunas over 100#. Super trip for everyone.. We are currently traveling, as we departed yesterday on yet another extravaganza, Rick Ozaki, west coast marketing 16-day trip. We have lots of good sardines as well as a boatload of top-notch fisherman eager to do battle with whatever we might encounter. Today was spent rigging, relaxing, and handing out all the HUGE giveaways for the trip. The weather looks to be in our favor, and we will report anything that might interest you all that are stuck on land. Sea you then, Jeff, Billy, Kevin, Justin, Paul M., Doug, Rolf and Ed,
