My first and second Marlin
Hullabaloo went out yesterday in search of the Great Blue Marlin. The Three Stooges (Geoffrey, Bruce & Gary) had the right karma. A Wahoo was lost early on but was followed up shortly thereafter by a 150 pound Marlin. A 25 minute fight had him alongside for his photo & release. My arms were sore but the spirit was soaring. A couple beers later #2 struck on my little Penn Senator reel. It took over an hour to bring in the 250 pounder. Thought we had a video of him alongside while Bruce & Geoffrey walked him around the swim platform. Guess I didn't push the button. We returned to Rodney Bay in the dark but my permanent smile lit the way.
