Fishing Azores: The Tuna Harvest
Descrição
The Badco team returns to Azores for their 4th season since the start of the World Tour. This year the crew decides to take a gamble and show up early, in hopes of catching the first wave of big fish that rolls through the popular chain of islands.

In the past, the location has had a reputation of producing some of the largest Blue Marlin of the world tour, particularly on the early side of the season. With two stand out fish being caught the year prior in the early weeks of August.
The team was fishing Cape Verde, West Africa just two weeks prior and has since shifted the operation 2,000+ nautical miles north to Portugal. A feat that is only possible with the help from their delivery crew.
This trip starts off slower than normal, with the team spending the first 4 days without a single bite… Due to slow fishing and logistics the trip is cut in half. A once seventeen day trip cut down to only eight.
With limited time the crew shifts focus from solely fishing for Marlin to enjoying the local world class Tuna bite. The group catches and harvests several tuna over the course of the next three days. Catching some Bigeye Tuna weighing up to 300+ pounds. What would be considered some of the largest of the species.
Six days into the trip and the boys get their first Blue Marlin. A medium grade model. With one day left the team decides to check out a different side of the bank, raising and catching a second larger Blue to end their shortened trip in the Azores. But not before giving the local commercial fisherman a gift or two…
