Los Cabos Billfish Tournament results

Friday the 17th was the last fishing day for the tournament that kicked of the season, the Los Cabos Billfish Tournament, in its 10th year. Unfortunately there were not a whole lot of blue marlin around. Only one fish qualified, which swept the winnings. Valerie had a fish that came up 10 lbs short of the minimum weight of 300 lbs, for a team from Finland, which was disappointing and one 300 lb plus fish was disqualified as it was mutilated. Other than these there were more striped marlin and dorado than anything else.

Here are the results:
