Mike Lackey brought his Vagabond back to Pt. Loma Sportfishing July 13 after three days of fishing offshore.

Mike Burroughs of Lake Elsinore won first place. He showed of a 43.25-pound albacore and posed both in the lineup shot and alone, since his fish moves the dock record for multi-day fleet-caught albacore up a pound.

Mike got his big "Albert" with a sardine on a 4/0 Super Mutu hook tied to 40-pound Blackwater fluorocarbon leader and 30-pound P-Line on an Accurate 870 reel and a new Accurate Boss 6640 rod.

Tyler Morrow of Dallas, TX was second for a 34.9-pound bluefin and Suzanne Crowther of Rancho Margarita took third place for her 34.6-pound albacore.
