More power to him! I'd love to go out and fish like that someday!

I wonder if he'll have it stuffed or I'm sure there are ready buyers for it.

Smoked marlin is about the only way it tastes good.

I have never heard of anyone eating a marlin or a tarpon.

35 years ago on the charter we took out of Hattaras the captain told
us, if we got a billfish up to the boat, we could get a picture and if
we wanted a mount he would get the measurements but we were turning
the fish loose.
Virtually all of those "mounts" are just fiberglass replicas anyway.
They don't skin and stuff the fish.
The "tarpon" guys I know don't kill the fish either. Actually my
neighbor was saying you could catch a tarpon right now in the north
end of Estero Bay, near Hendry Creek. Probably nothing close to record
size but even a 4' one will put on a show for you.

I really don't fish at all but I do watch fish and I am sure I could
go get some if I wanted to. I have thought about taking the hook off
of a spoon or a spook and seeing if I could get a hit or two.
If a fish nails a plug, you know you had him if you wanted him.

I would love to catch a mahi mahi, or tuna, or any other good-eating fish. But I'd
catch it 'cause I wanted to eat it. I'd love to have a dock where I could walk out to
the end catch a fish or two for dinner, and leave the hassle at home.

Careful now. One of the pussies here might start calling you the Butcher
of Alexandria. They seem to think that putting food on your table is
inhumane if you do it yourself. That's why you hear them talk about
eating out all the time. They probably can't cook either.

Screw 'em. They'd just have to add 'butcher' to all my other names. Let's see - Clara
the cunning soft asshole butcher... - damn, that could get kind of gross!
