Governor's Cup Billfishing Series third round results

Tom DuPré, Series coordinator for the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR), said, "The billfishing was pretty hot with 8 blue marlin, 2 white marlin, and 28 sailfish being caught. As is usual, the tournament hospitality was great, with lively entertainment and good food throughout the weekend." [Photo of Marine Advisory Committee member Ted Ellefson weighing in a wahoo]
