Owner/Captain Casey Wagner guides his Jarrett Bay to top mahi mahi honors in both Big Rock events
The one-day Keli Wagner Lady Angler Tournament saw 125 boats fishing, and through all of the gamefish weighed at the end of the tournament, the women aboard the 55′ Jarrett Bay Inspiration clinched the top dolphin prize with a 31.2 pound fish reeled in by Jeannie Fischler. This catch helped land them a nice check for $49,725 during the evening’s award banquet.
The 58th Annual Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament saw an impressive 174 boats fishing throughout the 6 days of the tournament. The action was non-stop each day with multiple blue marlin being brought to the scale causing several shake-ups in the leader board throughout the week.
However, one catch stood strong throughout the week-long tournament: on Day 2 Inspiration‘s Trent Ragland reeled in a 49.3 pound mahi mahi to clinch first place in the winner-take-all dolphin category and earn a sweet $130,050 payout.
