And what a way to start the circuit, 36 boats carrying 175 anglers from Trinidad & Tobago, St. Lucia, Barbados, Martinique, the United Kingdom, Grenada…did we forget anyone?

The fishing was fantastic, 90 billfish releases with a good number sightings of blue and white marlin, sailfish and some large yellow-fin tuna.

And of course, the record-breaking catch of a 3lb Dorado from Nigel Hyploite on local boat Crazy Horse.

Way to go guys!

Congratulations to Frothy and his crew on HARD PLAY II from Tobago, winning first place boat and to runners up CHALLENGE II from Barbados and MAGIC LADY from Trinidad.

One thing’s for sure. Grenada’s waters have the fish so don’t miss out the mega 40^th Spice Isle Bill Fish Tournament from January 20th-23rd 2009. Check out the SIBT website for more details. www.sibtgrenada.com
