Mark Locken returned to Los Barriles this week to fish the KIR Fish and Chips tournament with his crazy band of eight school buddies. Based out of Palmas de Cortez, last year fishing on the Jen Wren boats the merry men took 1st prize with a 143 pound tuna. It is also note worthy that they consumed 22 cases of beer in 3 days fishing. At that time Jack Wright coined the phrase "if you don't start drinking in the morning you can't drink all day" as he shouted "DRINK WITH ME BOYS!" These guys know how to have a good time. This year they missed the dorado jackpot by 4 ounces. Even though they were not able to break last years fishing record, they were able to set a new consumption record with 24 cases. A great time was had by all and only one rod and reel was "involuntarily" released with a tuna on the other end. May she rest in peace!
Does Nurse Ratchet know these guys are out?
This photo captures it all.
Mark & the boys eating ribs. Last year they got into my lunch and loved the spare ribs my wife made.
Part of our deal for this year was that I would bring a bigger batch of ribs.
