"We returned today with a fine catch of big Yellowfin Tuna," said the report for the Intrepid October 24, "and the biggest fish of the year so far.

"We had some days of good fishing and some days of slow fishing, but overall it turned out to be a great trip. It was all smiles when we hoisted up the giants in front of Point Loma Sportfishing. We would like to give a big thanks to Catchy Tackle and Wayne Martin again for their sponsorship and all the great give away items and a fantastic trip.

"Jackpot winners are Joe Arimitsu, first place for a 272.8-pound yellowfin tuna. Richard Stokes, second place for a 245-pounder. Bob Buckland:won third place for a 242.4-pound tuna. Honorable mention goes to Mel Appell with his 264.8-pound tuna and to Gary Gillingham for a 57-pound Wahoo.

"Intrepid left again on the annual Rod and Reel Radio trip with Stan Vandenberg and the gang. On a side note we would like to congratulate Intrepid owner Ken Price and his buddies for taking 1st Place at the Bisbee Marlin Tournament in Cabo San Lucas this week on the Mi Novia."
