    Marlin at 1770

    Went fishing last month with a couple of mates with local charter operator Peter Stevens at 1770 and had a black marlin double hook up, both around 15kg juveniles - very exciting! We also caught some good reefies including a 6 kg coral trout.

    Nice trout and cod there did the marlin revive and swim away the one on the left looks like it may have struggled to revive .

    Top fish mate!
    Loving the double hookup pic. I tasted a slab off a small black marlin earlier this year and i've gotta tell you, its not half bad. I know in comparison to coral trout and cobes they're not as top, but they're really not as bad as everyone makes out.
