Hey Dave, The fish put up a hell of a battle and really thrashed when Mike was finally able to get him by the bill @ boatside. So, no full body shots, but I am sure you can make good press out of some of the boatside shots. I have been fishing many years in pursuit of a Blue Marlin and my wife Susan gets this one on her 3rd Blue Water fishing trip!! best regards Live Life Large Frank |
