10th ANNUAL ONSLOW BAY OPEN results
Even twenty MPH winds and six-foot seas could not deter the king mackerel fishermen from participating in the 10th Yearly Onslow Bay Open up King Mackerel Tournament on August 14. The fish did not cooperate only 22 fish ended up weighed at Caspers Dry Stack Marina in Swansboro, the second lowest complete in 10 decades.
The winners, Rube, and son Barrett McMullan, of the Ocean Isle Fishing Middle, in Ocean Isle, NC caught a forty.77 king mackerel to claim the $ fifteen,507 initial prize. The McMullan’s are the current SKA file-holders, catching a 74 lb. king at the SKA Nationals in Biloxi, Skip. very last November.
Other locals that put had been: Phil Croom of Emerald Isle who completed 8th, Mike and Cindy Garb of Jacksonville who put 9th, Renee Wallace of Swansboro, Girl Angler, Benson Ybanez of Cape Carteret, who put 2nd in the Dolphin TWT, and The Correct A single Infant who positioned third in the Dolphin TWT. Roy Jarman on Crew Bluewater Bound of Jacksonville obtained 10th with his king and also won the 10th Anniversary Award which garnered him an extra $ 1000 from sponsor, American Fishing Wire.
Nate Owens, manager of the Swansboro Piggly Wiggly was the superstar weighmaster. Greg and Mindy Dennis of The Reel Outside of Emerald Isle had been acknowledged for staying a tournament sponsor for every single year that the
tournament has been running. We came near to our $ 200,000 objective for funds elevated, but fell a couple of dollars quick.
