fishing trip

[Mr. Kav]

I realize that this is a striped bass board but i am getting pretty excited about a fishing trip I will be going on in three weeks. I have been lucky enough to be invited to be the angler/mate for the Bahama Billfish Championship. This is a 4 day tournament that gives you 100pts for a tagged and released sailfish, 200 pts for a tagged and released white marlin, and 400 pts for a tagged and released blue marlin. A blue marlin over 99 inches long can be boated and you will recieve 1 point per pound. That is approximately a 400 lb fish. Total points at the end of 4 days wins the tournament but they will have daily prizes as well. Any fish boated over 1000 lbs the boat recieves $1million from the sponsors. Do you think I would like to boat a grander or what ? well thanks for letting me vent I am getting pretty excited just writing this. I just asked " steve from mass" if he would give me a ride to the airport and he graciously said yes so now i am 100% ready.
