1ST PLACE HEAVIEST KING!!!!

We had a great day fishing the Sailfish Marina Big Dog Fat Cat Tournament at The Sailfish Marina Resort. We were able to put our heaviest king (41.2lbs) into the box by 7:45am. Bite shut off on us from 8-9:30, and then we had a double hook up right before major activity (FishAngler – Explore. Catch. Connect) to put two more teenagers in the boat. All kings we caught under 10lbs were released to fight another day. Thank you to our OAPB_Fishing_Team that fished the Big Dog Fat Cat Tournament: Shaughn Miller, Michelle Hoekstra, Brent Miller, Damian Winnik, Mark Reuwer, and Eric Carter for putting in the work, patience, and determination to help grow the OAPB organization.
