Hooked Up, Blue Marlin!

Group of guys from Virginia's Southside on board today.

went looking in the deep for dolphins and something bigger.

Found both.

our first bite was a nice Blue marlin on the short shotgun.

The fight was on.

Nice fish, jumped away from the boat three times, and jumped on the leader!

Alan did a great job on the rod.

Had another blue marlin bite, a larger fish, but did not get hooked.

Finally after spending the day overboard, we found a patch that had a few gaffer dolphin on it.

thanks guys!
