44th G'town Landing Marina Gov. Cup - Day One





The first day of the 44th annual Georgetown Landing Marina Billfish Tournament saw 29 boats out of 34 go fishing in a steady south wind. The billfishing for white marlin was excellent and 14 white marlin releases were reported with lots more encounters with whites that did not result in hook-ups. One blue marlin was released by Mindset, and the Gov. Cup fleet released 5 sailfish total. No wahoo came to the scales.
