Congratulations to SCALES Pro Team member Cap’t Art Sapp who led the
Kimbuktu fishing team to become the 2009-2010 Bahamas Wahoo Challenge
overall series champions!  The series consists of 3 tournaments taking
place in different locations in the Bahamas running from November until
February.  Kimbuktu was consistent throughout the entire series and
finished strong with a 2nd place finish in the championship leg to secure
the overall series win.

We would also like to congratulate Capt. Matt White along with SCALES Pro
Team member Capt. Nick Cardella who led the Just Cashin’ out of Light
House Point, FL to victory in the 14th Annual, Cove Sailfish Tournament.
The two leading boats hooked fish with minutes until lines out on the
final day, but the Just Cashin’ team released their 10th fish first to
secure the victory and win $18,500.  This event helped raise money for
Michael Brewer, so a special thanks to all of the local fisherman who
donated to this great cause!
