When the winner of the first place jackpot is named Fisher, you'd think his catch would be exceptional, and this one was. Robin Fisher of Lakewood fished under a paddy during his six-day trip aboard Red Rooster III, and hooked something big.
"Everyone thought it was a tuna," he told dock reporter Bill Roecker July 22 at H&M Landing. "When it bit it went down, down, and kept going down. It made two long runs, too, and when I got it up to color everyone said, "Look at the size of that yellowtail!"
Fisher decked his big yellow, and other anglers took a variety from the same kelp, including bluefin, yellowtail and dorado, but Robin's toady boy weighed 57.85 pounds on the dock scales, and brought him first place when skipper Joe D'Acquisto hung the contenders. His group had limits of yellowtail.
The fight lasted 15 hard minutes, said Robin, who dropped a sardine in on a 3/0 Owner Flyliner hook. He said he fished with 40-pound Big Game line and a Pro Gear 454 reel on a custom Sabre seven-foot rod.
Patrick Fuller of Las Vegas won second place and the coveted trolling jacket for bluefin of 37 and 14 pounds.
Regular angler Al Jackson won third place for a 36.15-pound yellowtail, and old-time long ranger Tom Reynolds of Torrance stood in with the lineup with his 26.4-pound halibut.
"I was fishing for one of those," he told Roecker.
"Fishing was good at Cedros," said skipper Joe. "We spent two days there and also got some exotics: bluefin and dorado."
