| Where found:
OFFSHORE, a blue water fish.
Size:
The Pacific Blue Marlin is
considered by many to be sportfishing's ultimate prize.
Growing as large as 2000 pounds (the largest caught on rod and
reel was 1,805 pounds in Hawaii in 1970), and often seen in
Mexican waters from 300-600 pounds in season, the fish is as
acrobatic as it is powerful. Alive, the Pacific Blue tends to
make colossal runs - like times trial on a liquid dragstrip -
and perform aerial shows that give even non-anglers the
opportunity to witness their majestic beauty. The Blue Marlin
is truly a treat to catch.
