Rare Albino Blue Marlin

RARE ALBINO BLUE MARLIN ON SPANISH FLY

Los Suenos, Costa RicaCapt. Juan Carlos Zamora with Carlos Espinoza Jimenez and Roberto Salinas Hernandez on the Spanish Fly out of Los Suenos Marina captured these images of an extremely rare albino Blue Marlin. This is some of the best shots we have seen, with numerous jumps as well some shots close to the boat. Thanks very much to crew on the Spanish Fly for sharing these awesome photographs!

Update: We have spoken to number of Billfish experts and they are indicating that this may be the first ever captured on film.

    To Capt. Juan Carlos Zamora, Carlos Espinoza Jimenez, and Roberto Salinas Hernandez:

    Thanks for doing the right thing and letting that rare fish go, I respect that. Too often humans will find these rare creatures and then just kill them for no reason. I wish the best of luck to you all.
