The two teams will rendezvous in the Port of San Pedro, before completing a 4 day journey by boat to the remote island of Ascension. After the fishing teams first flight to Florida, they make a trip to a local fishing store, where they buy tackle for the people on Ascension.
Along with the tackle, the team purchased over 50 gifts and 10 laptops to donate to the local school on the island. Back at the 144 from shopping, Anthony informs everyone of some bad news. They are delayed and do not have clearance to fly into Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire, where they will clear into the country before flying to San Pedro.
A day and a half later, the team finally is on their way to Abidjan. Clearing into the country goes smoothly, but the team is nervous the gifts may be confiscated upon arrival in San Pedro. After several hours at the SP airport everyone is on their way to the Port….except one team member. Woody, who stays back with the gifts for an extra 4 hours - clearing them through a special customs office.
With Woody, the gifts, and the fishing team all safe on the mothership the Support team prepares to tow the 33L&H gameboat 900NM to Ascension. The group departs from the Port just before nightfall and everything is going smoothly, until…

Epic! 💯💙
I want to just say, that from a viewers perspective, you can see why Anthony has been so successful in his life. He has built this vision to build Bad Company, without skipping any corners at all. The production of these videos is next level, the organisation of the crew is simply insane and honestly, this is all due to Anthony. i will forever see a video of yours and click, well done to the entire crew. Looking forward to the Ascension Island adventures!
I wanted to see the 150’ adventure from Florida to Africa!!!
Go the Nomad lures!. I’ve been using them for the last couple of years all across the top end of Australia. They get results all the time. From Exmouth to the Torres Straights, Cairns and now I’m living in Darwin. It’s been a great adventure being able to fish in so many wonderful places. Just waiting for the Monsoon to die of up here and it’s game on for another season. Whooo hooo!.
Been waiting for this!
What a team ! What a endeavor! 🤞🙏
You're livieng the dream, be generous. I can't wait to see some huge marlins caught on the incredible setup you've built.

Awww, so unfortunate!!!
Aww L&H noooo . I used to live a few miles from they are made along with other nice fishing boat builders .
I'm surprised no one was wearing a life jacket while on the aft deck doing tow operations at night
This has got to the about the least efficient way of doing things every😂
