Marlin

The Rhino of the Ocean

Blue Marlin - Most believe blue marlin that are the most sought after of all the ocean sport fish. A super strong and powerful bill-fish, the blue marlin is a tough fighter and will run fast for many hours on end, especially when you are hooked up to a very large fish which can be over 1,000lbs.

They can suddenly dive to deep water or can make wild jumps whilst tailwalking huge distances. With impressive endurance, it is not uncommon to see a hooked fish make up to 40 or more spectacular jumps. This fish can be a tough test of an angler's deep sea fishing skills and strength.

Black Marlin - The black's immense strength and exceptional size makes it a favoured target among big-game fishermen.

A fight with one of these fish can last for hours, wearing severely on the angler as well as the tackle. It is a fighter that usually mixes jumping and fast runs with deep fighting characteristics and will jump at any time during the battle and often alongside the boat.
