2011 Governor's Cup BEGINS





A typical summertime weather pattern which included an early morning thunder-boomer this week greeted the 22-boat fleet that is fishing at the Bohicket Marina Invitational May 12 - 14. A chance to fish on Friday the 13th did not scare away the saltwater anglers that gathered for the Captain's Meeting to explain the rules - specifically that there are NO changes in rules this year! The charter dock was awash with talk of billfish in the ocean and what might be the top secret lures being trolled to tempt them. Daily weigh-ins are 5 until 8 each day and Bohicket Marina will always have one of the top sunset views in the Lowcountry outdoors - so make the drive to John's Island and join in the family fun.
