Tough first day at WMO
The 42 out of 433 boats that fished during the first day of the White Marlin Open didn’t find much for the scales which closed at 9:15. The only white marlin brought in didn’t meet the 70-pound minimum, and there were only a few qualifying tuna.
Restless Lady 2 from Ocean City weighed a 114.5-pound tuna that might be around for a few days, while a 92-pounder was second and a 57-pound entry is third. Tomorrow will be unfishable, but the weather looks good after that.
