Can Do Too Maintains Lead on Day 2

The Can Do Too held on to it's lead Tuesday and the only marlin brought to the docks didn't make the minimum requirements. The Sensation of Morehead City was the only boat to land a blue marlin but unfortunately their catch hurts a lot more than it helps. Big Rock tournament rules require all marlin brought to the docks to be at least 400 pounds or 110 inches in length, since the Sensation's marlin fell short they will be penalized 400 pounds from the weight of their largest blue marlin and 400 points from accumulated release points. Daily winners in the gamefish categories: The Fly Buoy from Pittsburg who won $1,253 for their 26.95 pound dolphin. The Fish Dance, captained by Keith Green out of Carolina Beach landed the only wahoo Tuesday. The 44.4 pounder that angler Mark Reyner reeled in turned out to be worth $2,089. The Sweet Margalit of Raleigh and captained by Nuke Guthrie captured the tuna daily prize and took over the division lead with a 62.2 pounder reeled in by Raleigh angler Doug Abrams. Since this was the only tuna brought to the scales, it netted the Sweet Margalit crew $2,089. More on day 2 is available from the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament's website.
