The 5th annual Dia de San Pedro Fishing Tournament took place this past Sunday at Holiday Hotel. For two days, anglers took to the high seas in an effort to catch the best out in the deep blue sea. After hours of tacking on bait, waiting for a bite, and arduously hauling in the catch, it was time for the weigh in and prizes!
