Kaenon Polarized

Last week, the crew of Tenacious traveled 244 miles west of Cabo San Lucas to the remote and uninhabited island of San Benedicto. Fishing was excellent and the boat’s freezers were filled to capacity. The boat and crew decked out in variety of Kaenon sunglasses will now return to Southern California in preparation for the upcoming 2010 summer fishing season.

FISHING – COSTA RICA

Tournament season is in full swing in Central America and South Florida where the El Nino phenomenon has brought record numbers of sailfish to near shore waters. The first leg of the Los Suenos Signature Series was completed last week off Herradura Bay in Costa Rica. The fleet released 652 sailfish and 12 marlin over the course of 3 days fishing.

Jimmy Nestor UPD Matte Black, G12 lens and Kaenon visor, prepares to release a sailfish aboard the Viking 50 Game On.

Kaenon Polarized enjoyed a strong presence at the 2009 Series Championships with last year’s World Cup winners Carlton Rice (UPD Matte Black G12) and Captain McGrew Rice claiming 2nd in Friday’s daily and 3rd overall aboard Ihu Nui.

Kevin Hibbard (Rhino Tobacco C12) and crew Davey Wolf (Rhino Matte Black G12) won Sunday’s dailys with a 75 pound yellowfin on J.R.’s Hooker which was good enough for $6,800.

The marlin are snapping off Kona with plenty of 100-200 pound fish being tagged and released during the tournaments.

A blue marlin swims boat-side with hooks barely hanging on to the bill.

Mike Direggo (Rhino Tobacco C12 RX) brought his crew over on his charter-boat Maggie Joe from Oahu to participate in Kona’s summer tournaments. Mike runs one of the most respected charter operations in the islands out of Oahu’s Kewalo basin.
