The final day of No Sancocho had all boats running in different directions trying to find the best bite. All 8 boats had Marlin bites, 4 of them released a single, and The Hooker released 2!
Boats totaled 50/74 Sailfish and 6/10 both Striped Marlin and Blue Marlin.
This was a battle to the end. The ladies on the Finest Kind released 12 sailfish, the highest of the day. They ended the day tying The Hooker with 350pts, however, The Hooker caught its last fish 10mins earlier and was declared Top Team!
The Makaira, all-ladies team as well, slipped into 3rd place with 270pts and Top Lady Angler Connie O’Day who released an est. 450lb blue Marlin also had a tournament grand slam, and baptized Capt Jefry Garcia in his tournament/season debut.
The Sancocho King was Ivan Soto on Team Contender with 6 Sancochos and a grand tournament total of 71 Sancochos! This combined with matching donations from Team Release, Team Contender, and David/Kristen Salazar raised $4,350 to help a primary school here in local Puerto San Jose!
