Now some Marlin Porn

See the reef in the background, sometimes the bite came less than 100 yards from the break and in less than 100 ft of water.   

The high boat averaged 2 black marlin releases each day, including 4 over 500 pounds and one of those nearly hitting the half ton mark.   I got to see one of those yesterday, estimated in the teens, way, way over a grand.   That was the one we came for, although I didn't know it at the time.   I have a great new appreciation for what these blokes are doing down here with heavy tackle marlin fishing and why people come from all over the world to do it.
