Here is a of West Coast Mkt / Avet reels on April 16 day trip. The first annual April 16 day trip in on the Independence was a great success. In my 20 years of fishing 16 days trips or longer this was the best wahoo fishing I have every had. The quality of the wahoo were between 25lbs to 45lbs with a few over 50ls. Jim Mann, a regular on this charter caught the largest wahoo at 65 lbs. The hot ticket was the gold Raider in pink and the chrome in blue. Most of the wahoo were caught in the buffer zone at Clarion Island. The tuna bite was also sensational. We caught them on jigs (early morning), chunks, sardines, mackeral and especially the kite. During the trip we went through 6 rotations of the kite. The hot kite setup was the new 3-speed 80 Avet. Avet donated two of these reels for kite fishing. We probably caught over 100 tuna (many over 200lbs) on these reels. Everybody just loved the grinding power of the 3 speeds. Many of the anglers never used the lowest gear because the middle gear did the job just fine. We ended up with between 18-20 cows for the trip. Jim Chivas caught the largest tuna at 243lb. I also wanted to congradulate Elmer Lackey for winning the final Holdem Poker championship. I wish to thank Mark and Paul for setting this trip up for me and to the Captain and crew for during a terrific job (Captain Jeff, Paul M., Ed, Meschel, Dough, Matt, Kevin and Oscar). Our sponsors were Avet Reels, Yozuri , Seaguar, Graftech Rods, Raider Lures,and 5 star Fish Processing. Special thanks to my dear friend RIchard Hightower. Also thanks to Dave Rocchi, Dalte Lethcoe, Tony de Kruif and Norm for helping me on the trip Next year's trip is a private charter by West Coast Marketing. The trip is sold out but Mark and Paul just added another 16 day limited load in late April 2013
