Skipper Drew Henderson docked Polaris Supreme July 13 after a three-day trip with 23 anglers.

"There's good sign of fish down to at least 150 miles," he said. "The ocean is nice, and about 67.3 degrees."

Don Todd of Sun Valley won first place on the trip for his 37.8-pound albacore. He said it grabbed a sardine on a 3/0 ringed Super Mutu hook tied to 30-pound fluorocarbon leader and 30-pound P-Line on a Penn 555 reel and a seven-foot rod.

"That fish made my day," said Don. "It felt good!"

Sam Ferarelli of Los Alamitos got a 34-pound albacore and Dennis McNeely of Santa Cruz found a 33.6-pounder for second and third places.
