Ana Maria Sportfishing Win 1st place Marlin in La Cruz Tournament

Captain Steve Torres and Ana Maria Sportfishing does it again!

Puerto Vallarta fishing tournament Day 1 July 15  
The boats set out at 7 am Captain Steve had caught 4 marlins the previous week and had marked a couple hot spots around the rock, the crew caught some bigger live baits and we starting trolling just after 10 am we had our first hook up Steve hit the throttle and the fight was on Mark reeled in the 335 lb Blue Marlin in an hour and a half . The rest of the day was pretty cold after that but we had our trophy fish.

Puerto Vallarta fishing tournament Day 2 July 16  
We had a big rain Storm that lasted all night and continued into the early Morning for the ride out by 9 am it was clears sky’s. and about the same time as the day before a little after 10 am we had our first hook a big Sailfish to bad this is not a Sailfish tournament so the crew released the Sail and We starting trolling again but no more bites we starting heading back to the marina at about 4pm. We had heard 2 other Marlin catches today on the radio so we were running back with our fingers crossed and ended up on top by about 20 lbs. Congratulations to all the contestants this year for making another great tournament.

What was the purse in that tournament, not counting calcuttas?

Also, thanks for sharing. The pic of the man in a blue suit when it’s fresh out of the water is really great, vivid color on that fish’s back. The ladies sure are sexy over that way too. [angelic]
