Another apex predator slain for the sake of a trophy and a few bucks...what a waste. Kill tournaments and Calcuttas suck.

apex predator = bowling pin chaser with pointy nose. I thought we were apex predators?

bluffman2 · 07-05-2008, 10:17 PM

i know im fixing to start a war here BUT.....

#1 is it ILLEGAL to catch and KEEP a "LEGAL" billfish.........NO

#2 how many billfish in our areaare kept in a years time??.....about as many as1 recreational boat can keep "legal"snapper (in the same amount of time)

#3 this fish could have died.....so do you leave it out there??....NO you bring it in......

#4 IF there was over fishing and KEEPING of billfish we may have a problem...THATS NOT the case though...

#5 these are all great Capts and if he decides a billfish needs a ride back to the dock he made a decision he thought was right......

EDIT EDIT

by the way if it wasnt for bringing some of these fish to the docks where would we get the valuable info needed to learn more about them.......

99% of marlin post on here or any other forum contain the words "we TAGGED and RELEASED" not that they are BRINGING one in..........these guys are all about tag and release BUT there are times to bring one in!!!

JUST MY .02,s

CONGRADS....good luck and tight lines...

bluffman i have the greatest respect for you and the capt. and the fisherman that caught the blue marlin:bowdown

i will probably never be so lucky or blessed to fight such a magnifisent fish, but it is fisherman who need to stand up and protect these most majestic ofcreatures.

bluffman2 · 07-05-2008, 10:35 PM

nextstep...thanks for the kind words and i shall have the same respect for you and fellow fisherman....

BUT isnt 99% (or close to it) TAG and RELEASE standing up for these fish and protecting them???
