Coiba Island, Panama – We have seen a lot of cool shots before and quite frankly don’t post them unless we think they are spectacular. The boat Karma, who is based out of San Diego, but spends a lot of time in Mexico and Central America, posted a couple really unique shots on a blue marlin. Check these out and…
Cabo San Lucas is a world-renowned marlin fishery – and one of the few places on earth where one can catch a marlin every day of the year. It’s perhaps the best place on earth to catch striped marlin – it’s right at a Pacific migratory route, and a number of stripeys just stay there year round – and blues…
Check out this video clip, from “Blue Marlin of Ghana.” Makes you wonder how many marlin come into your spread and do nothing!

While fishing on Carmague, they Raised 7, hag 6 Bites and released a 500 and a 700 lber. The other fish they saw were all big, going anywhere from 300…
Ascension Island – We do not want to say, we told you so, but we did. It appears we may have had the first Grander Blue Marlin of 2010, caught by the Harmattan with Capt. Matthias Henningsen.
