Owner-skipper Art Taylor's Searcher returned from a four-day trip with a catch of yellowtail, dorado and some bluefin tuna. One, an ineligible 65-pound shortfin, joined the jackpot winners as an honorable mention for a lineup shot.

Dave Knight of Corona got the big tuna. Tony DiPaola of Encinitas won first place for a 22.4-pound yellowtail. He was tied by Henry Nzuyen of Victorville. Third place went to Jim Freed of Carson City, NV, with a 21.8-pound yellow.
