The Team is now 25 days into their 37 day trip to Ascension Island. Over the last few weeks the boys have covered thousands of miles of fishing grounds. Plagued with bad weather and hundreds of voracious sharks up until this point, the trip begins to take an unexpected turn.
While hiding from the weather on a windy day the crew stumbles into a new fishing zone. An area seems to have never been fished by previous teams. With a little over a week left the boys work the entire area for several days. The bite is ON. The team makes up for lost time landing several Blue Marlin over the 800# mark and several other quality models to go with it.
As the trip nears its end the crew reflects on their time spent at the remote island and the new relationships they’ve formed. Anthony throws a party for the town with the help of some new friends, and a local fisherman (and friend) weighs in on his experience with Team Badco.
The support team preps the mothership for the loading of the 33 L&H Game-boat along side the fishing team. With no time to waste the boat is loaded immediately after the last day of fishing. The combined teams navigate loading a 15 thousand pound asset by crane in the islands open waters. They successfully load the rig, and everything goes smoothly and as planned…mostly.
The boys say their goodbyes to the island the next morning, before catching their flight off the rock. The feeling is bitter sweet but the intention to return to this mysterious and relatively untouched Island ruminates in everyone’s mind. This will not be the last time the team fishes these grounds…
The crew would like thank all their new friends on the island as well as all the previous captains who helped make this trip possible.
