Marlin Report

Fort Lauderdale - The Florida Sportsman forums just put up a major fence by changing their severs or something, but try to navigate on over to this post about a Marlin trip with Captain Jeff. The original poster is bemoaning the ratio of Marlin caught, he probably forgets that we are all fans of Papa Hemmingway and know the the Old Man Santiago goes something like 86 trips without getting one. So lets just turn that entitlement right down from a 12 to a 7 on the scale from 1 to 11. Anyway, the Lunkerdog All Stars did manage to raise and hook a blue marlin. Gear broke, and they still raised that 40 pound water chicken in the photo.

CAUGHT - BLUE MARLIN

BERMUDA - Captain James Robinson of WOUND UP caught this Lunker blue marlin that ended up weighing 1049lbs. Check out the whole story on Sportfishermen.com

Captain Jeff catches Blue Marlin

Ft. Lauderdale - April 27th Sunday Captain Jeff Maggio and angler Darin Jenkins caught and released a 200lb Blue Marlin while fishing out of Port Everglades. This is the first Marlin that Maggio has tagged fishing out of his 31' Bertram the NV (Nicole Victoria). It was a lucky day for Jenkins who was the sole fisherman to take the charter after 5 other friends bailed out at the last minute. "Yeah the other guys had excuses or just couldn't make it that Sunday morning, so I asked Darin if he still wanted to go, he said yes, and we got bait and left the port at about 8:00am Sunday morning"
