Billfish Report

Azores – With only a few boats fishing the short season, the Azores may still not be on everyone’s radar. Most people have heard of these small volcanic islands in the middle of the Northern Atlantic, but you may not know about the numbers. There is no such thing as a guaranteed Blue Marlin and there is certainly no such thing as a guaranteed 500 lbs. fish, but if there were, the Azores should offer that guarantee. If you put your time in (4-5 days), you are going to at least get your chances at a big Blue Marlin.
