Facebook post: marlin caught at the canal
I'm sure some of you were at the ditch last night. Is this a joke? It's conceivable that a whitey got off track and ended up in close.
Cape Cod Tackle
I just watched a video on a customers cell phone of a guy catching a Marlin in the canal last night. I 'm not kidding I said a Marlin. Caught at the Murders row last night. I'll post pictures later when he sends them to me.

Very cool! Mike commented it was on a plug but I don't think they've specified what yet.

No matter what it's a funny photo

Would you need a permit for that even if it was handed to you at shore?

If Mike said it was caught in the canal, it was caught in the canal. Some people can be taken at their word. Mike is one of them.

Depends who you are. I wouldn't need a permit. I would have taken a pic and let it go though. I wouldn't know what the hell to do with it anyway. Pretty cool catch!

You'd mount it.
Then you'd release it.

No doubt it's real- whether or not it was actually caught at the canal is my question. I trust Mike but I would like to see the video for myself.
Probably smart to keep incognito on it though- definitely illegal to keep...

If you knew that it was illegal to keep, would you pose with it?
I probably wouldn't have even shown my bike in a picture.

So the Rooks don't need to go out and catch a 50 on their first time but now they can catch a freikin' marlin. WOW
