The 9th Annual Roatan Fishing Tournament held in West End turned out to be a record breaking event! On Saturday, September 13, 2008 the Mad Max boat arrived in West End with a 708 lb Blue Marlin after 4 plus hours of work reeling it in. Congratulations to Gary, Claudio, Pasquale, Robert, Collin and Mario! This 708 lb Blue Marlin has broken the Caribbean Central American World record.

IX Torneo De Pesca, Municipalidad De Roatan offered cash awards as well as Clock trophies to the winners in a variety of categories Sunday night at the grand Fishing Tournament festivities. There were lots of booths set up with authentic island food to feed the hundreds of people who came to see “The Big One” that didn't get away! It was also Independence Day weekend for Honduras, so there was an added flare to the parade, floats, bands, marching kids and cheering crowds that filled the sandy road of West End Village.
