Went out sunday and stretched out (boat name) was running late got lines in and 20 mins later at 8:15 starboard short rigger starts screaming. Told capt. we need to turn and chase the fish wasn’t 30 seconds later huge marlin skys then tail walks just a few times I knew it was a big fish!!! Started pulling in lines and dredge, While my buddy was fighting the fish. Fought the fish till 12:00 and we successfully released his first blue!! Got some video but hard to see!! It was from a camera phone!! Congrats to Barron on his first Blue Marlin!!! Also thanks to Scott at haddrell’s for setting us up with our new set of lures!!! Estimated 12 ft give or take 500 to 600 lbs!!! Hell of a day!!!

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Way to hang in there so long on the 6/0. Think I would have just broke it off after little while. To bad you did’t stroke that fish. At 144" it probably would be a new state record. The one in the case at Georgetown measures 136" and weighs 881#

Last time I fished I remember fighting each one all the way to the boat… it takes as long as it takes… what’s not to love about that? Congrats on the fish!!!
