It’s a 740+ lb fish. Do you really think it is going to just sit there and say “cheese” while you snap a selfie?!

I TOTALLY agree! If your NOT going to eat them you should just catch them, weigh them,take a couple of pictures with them and then RELEASE them!! To me its the equivalent of killing an elephant for its ivory tusks and then discarding the rest of the animal!! For What!!! To make fish bait or have hit hung on a wall somewhere!!

Thought I read somewhere about 75% of locals being overweight…that’s a lot of salad eating. Should we put Marlin on the KFC menu to make it socially acceptable?

For you tree huggers in fairylands this might not be much but for a commercial fisherman in Bermuda that is a substantial amount of money. It’s not just killed for bait!! It’s a pay check!

This one will be used for bait for lobster pots and more. To those of you who think bad of these men, go suck a lemon! Go stop people that are killing all the small reef fish……marlin arent as important to the bermuda reef system as you think. Also, if you think this is bad, go research what Japanese longliners fishing 200 miles away are doing.

You are putting it back in the water after injuring it some sort of way by ripping it out the water by a metal hook! Killing it, yes, means it’s gone forever but it causes more pain to the fish by letting it go after a painful struggle of being caught.

THINK OF HOW MANY YEARS IT TAKES FOR THE FISH TO REACH THAT SIZE!!!! AND JUST A DAY TO END IT’S LIFE.

He usually comes in with a big fish story about how the big one got away. I’m glad he no longer has to make up fish stories. Once he cuts that into some marlin steaks A. S. Hall and I can fire up our smokers and host Jamaican Ed’s summer fish fry. Thank goodness the Burrkat is supplying the booze because 700lbs of fish is food for a lot of people which means a lot of booze too.
