True here and other parts of the world where fishing is regulated...but in Hawaii there are no regulations as fish are the #1 part of the diet. Marlin are sold when brought in .....its a way for the captains to make xtra money! They make jerky, poke', and the nicer restaurants light sear it w/ a reduction sauce drizzled over it! I had white marlin while in Hawaii and it was delish!...but the jerky is a bit odd.

The locals eat everything from parrot fish to marlin!
