Hello Anglers,

We arrived at Fisherman's Landing at 0730 and weighed up Jackpot. Our total fish over 100 pounds was 161 fish and 7 of them were 194 pounds to 199 pounds. We had 13 fish that weighed 200 to 249.6 pounds. A beautiful catch by any standard. Our jackpot winners are as follows. Paul Nakama with a 249.6 pound yellowfin he caught on a chunk Chris Johnston with a 233.1 pound yellowfin he caught on the kite with a squid. Harold Kinne with a 227 pound yellowfin he caught on a squid and the kite. Not only did these three all win the jackpot, they won it with there biggest fish ever. Harold Kinne had never been out on a trip more than 6 hours before this trip and the first fish he caught was this 227 pounder. Chrish Johnston has been on numerous trips and finally got his first 200 pounder. And Paul not only got the first place fish, but he also caught a 237 pound yellowfin as well. We are going to be departing on Feb. 11 on Braid 17 day trip so we will check in later. Shawn and the crew

Our fish today were bigger on the average, a lot more 175 to 190 pound fish with one at 195 for David Gedra and a 210 for Karl Forster. Since the action is next to nothing in the morning we are......
