Billfish Bonanza - Exmouth

Well, the billfish bonanza was last weekend and the boys did a good job in coming 4th out of 14, considering they had the smallest boat in the fleet and had to deal with 30 knot onshores on Sunday.. Pretty good effort really.. They managed to tag 4 sailfish over the weekend and also landed a nice sized cobia from under a manta..  There were heaps of other fish about as well, but sailfish were the main target..

Winner was Matt Gates from Bluewater.  With 10 minutes left in the comp they hooked up onto a saily double header and won the comp just.. the boys gave them the winning live bait as a swap for a couple of bundy's earlier on, bad call fellas..  Adzy also won a angle grinder for tagging the first sail for the weekend..

Sounds like it was a pretty good weekend to be in Exmouth, bring on Gamex 06!
