With the first two days of fishing behind them, a few awaiting the 7:30-am start were hoping to add to their successes.</p> <p>Joe Musich aboard "Buena Fortuna" released a dorado 25 minutes after the flare gun went off – the first fish of the day. Hopefully, he would live up to the name of his boat, translated as "Good Fortune!"</p> <p>Shortly after his dorado came a yellowfin tuna on "Vamoose" by angler Mike Lane who released a 37.1-pounder. Next, Kurt Ziegler aboard La Patrona released a sailfish, boosting the hopes and dreams of the other 94 teams in search of "THE BIG ONE" that could win them a sizable portion of the $1,000,000+ in prize money left on the table.</p> <p><em><strong>Remarkably, all targeted species of the event had been found in less than an hour!</strong></em></p> <p>Throughout the morning and into the afternoon, radio chatter and CatchStat reports underscored the abundance of dolphin (dorado) in some areas on the grid, resulting in a steady stream of hopeful teams arriving at the weigh station with their best catch of the day.</p> <p>Although there were a total of four yellowfin tuna brought to the weigh station, none managed to exceed the 40-pound minimum weight, even though some were close.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Friday, August 5, 2022 Scale Weigh ins</strong></p> <p><strong><img src="https://bisbee-cdn.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/thatbajaguy/2022/eco/Freebird.jpg" alt="" width="860" height="574" /></strong></p> <p><strong>1 Freebird Roberto Velazquez Dolphin 42.5</strong></p> <p><img src="https://bisbee-cdn.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/thatbajaguy/2022/eco/5+more+minutes.jpg" alt="" width="860" height="574" /></p> <p><strong>2 Five More Minutes Roberto Hulsey Dolphin 40.5</strong></p> <p><img src="https://bisbee-cdn.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/thatbajaguy/2022/eco/Real+Aquasition.jpg" alt="" width="860" height="574" /></p> <p><strong>3 Real Acquisition Alberto Araiza Dolphin 40.3</strong></p> <p><img src="https://bisbee-cdn.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/thatbajaguy/2022/eco/Crudo+edit.jpg" alt="" width="860" height="574" /></p> <p><strong>4 Team Crudo Daniel Bernal Dolphin 39.6</strong></p> <p><strong>By the time, the Team finally closed the Weigh Station at exactly 7:30-pm, the total number of fish caught for the day was as follows:</strong></p> <p>Black Marlin 0</p> <p>Blue Marlin 7</p> <p>Dolphin 18</p> <p>Sailfish 19</p> <p>Striped Marlin 28</p> <p>Yellowfin Tuna 4</p> <p>Catch Count 76</p> <div><strong>CELEBRATION! </strong> 7:00 - 9:30-pm Individual checks will be awarded to the winning Teams at the Buena Vista Oceanfront and Hot Springs Resort.<br />Don’t miss this event!
