Competed in the 2016 Are You Man Enough Shark Challenge this Friday and Saturday. Left Friday morning in the fog slugged our way to our spot for the day. Set up the slick and it took about 15 minutes before we had the first bite. Set the hook and after about 10 minutes had our first thresher to the boat. Opted to take it as it was decent size (later weighed 230 LBS on the scale). Stayed in the area for the remainder of the day and had action all day long, landing and releasing 1 more thresher, 1 small mako and 7 blue sharks. Ended the day just out of the Calcutta money but with 1500 release points which put us in 1st.
Saturday morning had a much nice ride to the grounds and had to go back to where we were the day before. Much nicer water than the previous day and we all had high hopes. Set up the slick and worked the area all day. Unfortunately we didn't see what we were looking for but had plenty of action again all day landing and releasing 1 small mako around 60 lbs and 9 big blue sharks. Ending the day with 1400 release points which put us in 2nd place.
At the end of the tournament we were able to remain in 1st and 2nd place with our 2 day release points and had a great time in the tournament. I would like to congratulate all the winners .
