Good luck all around! Let the Bert's "Catch 'Em Up" Look forward to meeting up tomorrow night Sean. I'll be the little chubby Italian looking guy with a red "Reel Hard" fishing jacket, or if it's warm, a Salmon colored "Reel Hard" fishing shirt. (I didn't pick the color!) Again, all the best to those fishing for dollars!!!

Good luck guys and bring back the winner for all of us. Guess the Montauk Tourney was a sleep show. COLD water with a small Thresher taking the Trophy. But it's been warm all week and the water temp images look a lot better than they did last week. So we'll be hoping for a big old Mako to swim your way ! Rick Ticket 85 SF Falmouth, MA

Well we went sat, we were entered in both tournaments. Sat proved to be a very nasty day. 3 to 4 foot with some 5's and 6 ft'ers mixed in. Headed for my little spot 55 miles out towards the toms and set-up. 20 minutes later we get a hit. Very lite and everyone thinking its a blue fish. 4ft roller comes in and lifts the fish up in the swell. All hell breaks loose. 300LB class fish comes right to the boat. The fish is leadered right at the transom green as hell. Yell for the gaf, the guy is standing there in awww. Yell for the gun. That guy was sick as hell and refused to go in the cabin. The fish takes off gets about 30 ft from the boat and go's to the air. What a site. Five minutes later, GONE. That was the money fish. We had 4 mako's in the slick 3 that were easy over 200lbs. 2 threashers that were kicking 200 and over and 2 blue sharks. Brought in the small mako, 70 inches at 140. Sorry guys that we could'nt that we could'nt do it for the 33 bert. Maybe Sean did. Mike

I didnt - we had another make on Sat - but not a money fish. We released a small 60" fish early in the day - caught a dusky later on - then about 5:30 - we caught another fish that went 70 inches - we never made it to the scales to weight it,. Scales closed at 7pm - I got back to the dock at 8. Daily winner was 167 so, Since our fish was fat - it might have taken the day - but we knew at 5:30 when we hooked up that it was already to late to make it in. Oh well - we took 2 mako's in 2 days, released another, and had a great time. Next year we'll try again.

Hi All, It was a pleasure meeting Sean and his crew at the Cape May Shark Tourny. We fished days 2 and 3. Saturday we ran pretty far off, about 76 miles to cross over 68 degree water and end up in 62. (What was I thinking?) Had 2 Blue Sharks released. Both were monsters one about 230-250 and the second closer to 300. It's ashame there was no Blue category :-/. Sunday we stayed a little closer. We hoped for more fishing time. It was an action packed day, that lead to no money, but lots of fun and excitement. We realeased 1 dusky, 1 brown, and 4 mackos. Boated 1 macko about 58 inches. Not a tourny fish, but tasty. We also had a Hammer Head, about 5 feet swimming around the boat for about 15 minutes. First time I saw one of those....impresive looking fish. As Sean said, it was a great time, and we look forward to next years Cape May Shark Tournament. We need to get these great boats into the money
