Chin won first place in the jackpot for a 41.2-pound yellowtail. He said it came on a mackerel pinned on a 3/0 ringed Super Mutu hook. He sent that to the bottom on a dropper loop with a 16-ounce sinker. He fished with 60-pound Maxima line, a Tiagra 20 reel and a six and a half-foot Loomis rod.

Ted Reed of Chino Hills won second place for a 32.8-pound yellowtail, and Jay Preston of Glendora was third for a 32-pound yellow.
