http://www.fishingvideos.comSam Patella brought his American Angler home to Pt. Loma Sportfishing with 22 anglers aboard after the ten-day Calstar trip with chartermaster Glenn Kuromi, Calstar pro-staffer. "We gave away seven rods and four blanks," said Kuromi. Jor Gigliotti of Coto de Caza won first place for the trip's cow, a 239.5-pound tuna he got with a sardine on a 7/0 Mustad ringed Demon offset circle hook. "The toughest fish I ever fought," said Gigliotti, "and the longest fight, too. He bit about six AM and stayed outside through the whole fight, then came up in the starboard corner." Joe said he used 100-pound Seaguar Premier fluorocarbon and 130-pound Line One Spectra on an Accurate ATD 12 reel and a Calstar 770 XXH rod. Bill Hennigh of Garden Grove won second place for his best fish ever, a 186-pounder. Chris Cruger of Scripps Ranch won third place for a 161- pound tuna. "We had a great time," he told dock reporter Bill Roecker. "Calstar loaned us all rods, and I really enjoyed that."
