The inaugural Sailfish Open at Hawks Cay concluded today with a grand total of 52 sailfish released by a 30 boat fleet.  Unfortunately, throughout the tournament there was no current, not even west bound.  The beautiful color change the past two days only grew tighter as the hours passed.  Although fishing was slow, the teams fought to get the bites. 

The final lines out placed Advanced Roofing in first place with a two day total of six releases bringing home $107,915 followed by Screen Print Plus/Prize Fighter with five releases earning $75,610 and third place went to Rock Star with four releases winning them $41,350.

As we grow closer to the end of the Sailfish Pro Series, tensions are high.  There were many shifts in the leaders at this event and dreams for some teams lie in the wildcard shootout day. 

Sailfish Pro Series standings currently show Rock Star holding onto the lead with 385 points, Advanced Roofing sits in second with 360 points and Jichi rounds out the top three with 341 points.  The final regular season event and wild card day will take place at the World Sailfish Championship in Key West April 14-18.
