Very bad luck it´s Friday the 13th what a day for our client John williamson who was on tender hooks watching spearfish striking at the lures after entering the spread.

BLUE MARLIN 305 kilos - 680lbs DUTCH ANGLER
 Friday 6th May 2011
First day back in water after Dry Dock and Captain Roberto decided there was enough bait fish to go Trolling and we came up Trumps for Dutch Angler Gijs Disselhurst from Heeten Holland aged 15 years.The Marlin thrilled all with a sequence of spectacular jumps then turning and Charging towards the Boat with such furocity the fish dived to the depths and sadly sounded and died. This Gave young Gijs a battle and a half on his hands to raise it from the depths. With encouragement from the Crew, Family, other Anglers especially the American Lasses, Gijs battled on for 50 minuets and achieved bringing this 305 kilos/ 680lbs Blue Marlin to the Boat. Officially weighed at 305 kilos. To round off the trip 3 American Ladies took control of the boat bringing Dorado back to the harbour. Take Care if you see these American Beauties about they are good for a GREAT LAUGH BUT dont take prisoners! To all our clients today Enjoy the rest of your Holidays and a special congratulations To Young Angler Gijs. NO GAFS USED AT ANYTIME THE FISH DIED IN PLAY UNFORTUNATELY.
