That’s a big fucking fish.

My arms and back hurt just looking at it.

I hope they sold it on the spot.

Not really. He's standing right next to it and has his finger on it.

They'll probably remember that one for a while but I doubt this is their first rodeo if they managed to land that after six hours on the line.  Me thinks they had their proverbial ducks in a row before they ever left the dock.

It happens....
Momi Bean caught a grander Blue Marlin in front of Honakoahu Harbor, HI.
Alone in a 16’-18’ boat.
There have been several spectacular catches by people alone in small boats.
Regular occurrence by subsistence fishermen in places like Ghana. Even more spectacular on hand lines.

Great fish, and an epic battle, I'm sure.
Sadly, its unlikely that they have a commercial permit, and just like last year, the market is a joke.
Also, after a 6/7 hour battle, the meat is likely full of yake (burnt) .
Still quite an acheivement!

That’s a great idea for a book, a guy alone in a small skiff handlining a huge marlin.

Make the fish a tuna and change the guy to a bisexual female and Hollywood would make it into a movie.
