Mike Samson (holding fish); son Koa, 7; and friend Kevin Mukai
caught this 100-pound ahi yesterday just 10 minutes outside Waianae
Boat Harbor on the Samsons' 14-foot boat. The hookup started as a
double strike, but what was likely a bigger fish got away, breaking the
hook and pole holder, below. Nonetheless, the fish they got was put to
good use: There was a pre-wedding party last night for
Samson and his fiancee.
