$739,500 still up for grabs at Big Rock tournament

Day 3 recap of Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament

Only 12 out of 271 boats fished on Day 3 of the 2023 Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament, and two of those boats put some excitement into the crowd by bringing blue marlin to weigh, hoping to break the 500-pound mark and win the Fabulous Fisherman prize of $739,500.

But neither of the fish were heavy enough. PREDATOR did land on the leaderboard, in third place, with their 459-pound blue. SEA WOLF weighed a 408.1 pounder, leaving the big prize money still up for grabs entering Day 4.

Only one meat fish was weighed on Day 3. OUTLIER’s 3.8-pound dolphin was good for the Dolphin Daily Prize of $2000.

OUTLIER also released two blue marlin and one sailfish, pocketing another $44,625.

C-STUDENT still leads the Heaviest Blue Marlin category with their 470.2 pounder from Day 1. SEA TOY sits in second place with their 463.7 pounder.
