Day Two 2011 IGFA Offshore World Championship: Last night the clouds rolled in and stayed around all night.

The winds have shifted from the East to the West at around 12 mph. That makes the Pacific side of the peninsula rough. And with that wind colder water is moving down the peninsula. So most fisherman were fishing near the Gordo banks on the Sea of Cortez side of the peninsula. This tournament has been a good one for swordfish. Two have been landed and another one spit the hook. And the Striped Marlin are biting better today. Other game fish have been cooperating with the anglers. Today the heaviest Dorado was a nice fish at 37.60 pounds. It was caught on board the “Picante Dream,“ Picante Sportfishing’ Then came the big surprise for the day. The excitement was high for the Swordfish that were caught, but the Yellowfin Tuna that came in was a bigger surprise. The team from Brazil, “Torneio De Marlin Azul do Rio De Janeiro” fought, for 199 minutes, and landed a giant Yellowfin that tipped the scales at 226.2 pounds. It was one big Yellowfin Tuna that would have won some recent tuna tournaments. These guys won’t soon forget their trip to the IGFA Tournament and fishing in Cabo San Lucas.
