I just wanted to spread some information about bermuda's marlin fishing incase anyone is interested in catching a blue marlin. Bermuda's marlin is at its finest and should be looked into as a spot to try and visit. This saturday there were two GRANDERS caught in Bermuda. My friend who is the mate on the new "De Mako" bermudas newest fishing machine caught and released an estimated 1100 to 1200 lb blue marlin. This is the first grander caught and released in bermudas history. My friend told me that the fish was in great shape when it was released, it swam away unharmed and decided to give a 6 foot jump out of the water before it swim into the ocean depths. That is a real accomplishment and you don't hear to many people releasing granders. The other fish that was caught and boated was a 1199 lb blue marlin aboard the "Challenger" by Capt Alan Card and crew. I have a picture of it but I have no idea how to post it. I can e-mail to john if anyone is interested in seeing it. bermuda was and still is the place where the most granders have been caught in the atlantic ocean. Not bad for a place that only takes 1:45 minutes to get to.
