Kinston team wins in Key West
The Unreel Fishing Team was fishing 82 miles west of Key West, Fla., in about 80 feet of water when the winning kingfish ate a three-pound runner around 10:30 a.m., on the second of two fishing days. As it turned out, the 56.44-pound King Mackerel became the winning catch, bringing first place honors to Captain Steve Squires and Lynwood Riggs, both of Kinston.
The two-day 2013 Key West Harbour King Mackerel Tournament, a sanctioned event of the Southern Kingfish Association, attracted 60 boats from Mississippi to North Carolina.
Squires also won first place for Senior Angler. Other Unreel fishing team members unable to attend the tournament are John Moore of Kinston and Mel Hoard of Atlantic Beach.
