Thirty anglers on a five-day Kimura's Tackle charter with skipper Mark Pisano aboard Independence returned to Pt. Loma Sportfishing August 5. Captain Pisano said they fished three days offshore and one day at Guadalupe Island, for near-limits of tuna.

"The fishing was very good for quality and variety," said Pisano.

Conway Woo, a regular on the boat and a dentist from Fresno, won first place for his 101.4-pound yellowfin tuna. He fooled it with a sardine on a 4/0 Gamakatsu hook. Conway used 40-pound Seaguar fluorocarbon leader and 65-pound Line One Spectra on an Avet LX reel and a Calstar 700 M rod. He said it fought for 30 minutes.

Don Kikkawa of Encinitas won second place for a 93.2-pound tuna. He posed in the lineup with his two children, Claire, five, and Jason, eight.

Ron Guiterrez of Chino Hills won third place for a 76-pound tuna.
