Fishing
Sport fishing is
perhaps one of the most exciting sports around. Nothing
beats the feeling of fighting a 250-pound Ahi on an 80-pound
test monofilament line or fighting that prized Pacific Blue
marlin for more than 2 hours! Sports fishermen also practice
conservation efforts, such as participating in a catch and
release program. This insures the survivability of a species
as well as insuring that you get to fish another day.
Sports fishing tournaments are worldwide, but probably one
of the most famous tournaments is the Hawaiian International
Billfish Tournament, known as the Grandfather of all big
game fishing tournaments. Sports fishermen around the world,
including Australia, Bahamas, Japan, New Zealand, Papua New
Guinea, South Africa and throughout the US including
California, Florida, Hawaii and North Carolina, are lured to
sport fishing's famous Kona Coast in search of a prized
Pacific blue marlin and their chance of capturing the
Hawaiian International Billfish Tournament's prestigious
Governor's trophy.
So what are you waiting for? Put up that "Closed - Went
Fishing" sign, grab that rod and reel and tacklebox and head
out to the open sea for some sports fishing!
