Tuna Tango
July 30, 2010 — by Capt. Dave Lear
Cowboy VII and Hi-5 LureThe veteran East Cape team aboard Cowboy VII took advantage of an early bite to score the top daily marlin jackpot in Day 3 of the 11th annual Bisbee’s East Cape Offshore Tournament. The 441-pound blue marlin was fooled by a pink Hi-5 lure and after a 45-minute fight was boated. The team decided to run in early to avoid weight loss and the strategy paid off.

“We almost got spooled by the fish while we were clearing the other lines,” explained angler J.V. Lattimore. “After a minute of chaos, we got in the groove and everything went as it was supposed to.” … READ MORE »

The Waiting Game
July 29, 2010 — by Capt. Dave Lear
Senor Don 365 lb. black marlinThings started out promising for Tom Kundinger and his sons Tommy, Paul and Mike. They had a double strike just over an hour into the second day of the East Cape Offshore Tournament. One fish broke a line, but the second was solidly hooked after it swallowed the live yellowfin tuna bait. The fight for Tommy only lasted 15 minutes and once the black marlin was boated, Senor Don made the short run back to the scales. Their fish weighed 365 pounds. If it remained the largest fish of the day, the team would pocket a cool $64,515 for the daily jackpot… READ MORE »

Dreamweaver 581 lb. Black MarlinThe first day of the East Cape Offshore Tournament was a dark one—in terms of fish, that is. The best single day in the event’s 11-year history was highlighted by a 531-pound black marlin, which was captured by Thomas Lansing aboard Dreamweaver, a 32-foot Blackfin. “We didn’t have the baits in the water five minutes when the black ate a small yellowfin on a circle hook… READ MORE »

East Cape Captain's MeetingTense. Charged. Nervous. Those are the normal moods of contestants on the eve of most high-stakes offshore tournaments. But’s that’s not the case here, where the 11th annual Bisbee’s East Cape Offshore Tournament is poised to get underway. Instead, the atmosphere at today’s registration and captain’s meeting was more like a family reunion. Sure, there was the typical good-natured ribbing between teams. But there were plenty of hugs, back slaps and friendly handshakes, too. After all, this is the East Cape, where sportfishing roots go back 50 years. The boats still anchor just off the beach, pangas serve as water taxis and the offshore fishing is as good as ever… READ MORE »
