That's a monster! Are blue marlin good to eat? Just wonder if these tournament fish are utilized for more than bragging rights. I've never seen Them on menu anywhere.

Every part of the fish is used. Some for science, meat for missions that feed the homeless, the carcasses to the zoo to feed the big cats. None goes to waste!
They will have roughly 5,000 meals from the Marlin weighed this weekend.

Congrats to your friend Pox, awesome fish!

Like horse racing, how do you make 300K in bluewater fishing tournaments? Spend 3 million.

Not even remotely. Wahoo is probably one of the top white meat fish. I ate some marlin and it was very strong.

Ok I found the original image that was there before they deleted it. Apparently "You Never Know" trolled the news pretty hard with this picture which is why it was deleted. Look closely.

What did you google to find that pic? "Penis Marlin Pic" I bet you had some interesting results.
