With the current projection for 7-8 foot seas in the SW corner of Stellawgen Bank projected for Saturday, 26 September, the South Shore Tuna Tournament has been moved to October 2-4, 2009. That's good news for those who haven't yet organized their crew. For additional information, contact Steven James at 781-834-2899.
At stake is a 21’ Contender with a 200 HP Yamaha engine worth about $50,000 for the top prize winner. Last year, 62 vessels participated, a total of 28 fish were landed, and the winner, the Seacolt 2, won with two fish at a combined weight of 246.6 lbs. This year could be your turn to win.
One point per pound will be awarded for Blue Fin Tuna between 47” and under 73” curved fork length. The overall winning score will be the combined total points of the two days (Oct. 3-4, 2009).
This year, a weigh station has been added at Sunset Bay Marina, Hull, to augment the Scituate, Green Harbor, and Plymouth locations. Weigh stations will be open 2:30 PM – 4:30 PM on Oct. 3 and 4.
Sign up in advance or at the Reception Party / Captain’s Meeting on Friday, October 2 between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM. The awards party will be held at the HaNaBi Restaurant in Marshfield, MA. For detailed rules and entry forms, visit the Boston Big Game Fishing Club web site at http://www.bbgfc.com/
