Joey L. Pastrana, the over-all team organizer of the Dimasalang Angler Tournament, said participants were coming from 𝖽𝗂𝖿𝖿𝖾𝗋𝖾𝗇𝗍 municipalities such as the Mandaon Fishing Adventure Anglers, Ticao Anglers, Barkadahan Anglers of Dimasalang, Masbate Anglers Club, and Kumana Anglers.
Pastrana said the participants met at the Dimasalang port at around 6:30 a.m. since 𝖣𝖾𝖺𝗀𝖺𝗇 𝖨𝗌𝗅𝖺𝗇𝖽 is almost a 25-minute sail by boat from the pier.
The tournament began around 8:00 a.m. and ended at 12:00 p.m. During the competition, contestants could only use a fishing rod, reel, and artificial bait to catch fish.
Pastrana added that the event is also a time to bond with other anglers from other municipalities, drink a little while resting, and talk and share their experiences with those who are fishing so that they can get to know each other.
He said the group's goal in partaking in this endeavor is to protect coral reefs and put an end to illegal fishing activities. Aside from that, angling is one of their favorite things to do in their spare time.
Participants thanked Pastrana for the wonderful event he had initiated here.
One of the participants said they had all enjoyed the event and congratulated all Masbate Fishing Buddies (United Anglers of Masbate) and other individual anglers who took part.
Pastrana stressed that some Masbate Anglers had only recently met in person after connecting on Facebook, while others had already met and competed in events like the one
A dead body was discovered dangling from the boat while it was docked at a fishport on Sunday afternoon, September 25.
Police are still looking into whether the death of the victim involved foul play.

𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗢𝗙 𝗠𝗔𝗦𝗕𝗔𝗧𝗘 —The DMCI-Masbate Power Corporation (DMPC) announced on Friday the construction of a 12-megawatt plant in Cataingan to alleviate Masbate's power shortage. It was, however, halted because one of its requirements for obtaining a building permit was not met.
Loida Castro, DMPC vice president, said they sent a letter to the Provincial Government of Masbate seeking intervention to lift the Cease and Desist Order (CDO) served by the LGU Cataingan so they could continue building the Solar Hybrid Plant and running the Wartzila diesel power plant in Brgy. Pitogo, Cataingan.
Masbate Vice Governor Olga Kho, who is also the head of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, set a committee hearing for July 22, 2022, right away.
This was done through Provincial Board Member Kristoffer Paul Espinosa, who is the committee chairman for water and electricity.
Castro said DMPC, as the only power supplier in mainland Masbate, has the obligation and commitment to ensure a dependable and sustainable power supply in the Masbate Electric Cooperative (MASELCO) franchise area and to continue producing power to suit MASELCO's needs.
On the other hand, Engr. Nelson A. Lalas, MASELCO's interim general manager, claimed their cooperative distributes power throughout mainland Masbate.
MASELCO is responsible for all distribution lines and electricity reaching users' homes, he said.
"We in MASELCO have the same function as the DMCI—to have reliable electric service—but we also rely on DMCI power," Lalas added.
Lalas also cited NAPOCOR as having crucial role in electricity distribution, saying they were in charge of the 69KV transmission line that
