On Saturday Alvaro Fortune fished the National Tournament on the Strike Zone. They went out 50 miles and with in minutes after they put the riggers out they had a 250 lb Blue in the baits. He wanted to play but he did not want to eat. Not long after the baits were back out a 400lb Blue was trying his luck at the teaser. It only took two hits at the teaser and the mate had the fresh ballyhoo in his mouth. This gentleman was angry. After one hour they had a tag in this bad boy.
