Capt. Jim Cook of the MALOLO ELUA and legendary angler Coates Cobb Adams Sr. were more than a match for a lot of big billfish and their grander was defeated in only 1 hour and 35 minutes.
Mike Schmidt fishing on his 25′ Grady White put angler Kim Prater on a fish to remember, catching a 1,092 lbs. Blue Marlin. The fish was lure caught on 50 lbs tackle and took 2-Hours to get to the boat. This is the largest fish ever caught recreationally in Fiji waters.
Capt. Stacy Jacobe and his crew, Kelly Texiera, Elijah Wahinekona and Denver Gonsalves, hooked their 1092-lb marlin outside Waianae, Oahu. They battled the fish to the KAIKALAKA but experienced a problem when the marlin became stuck under the boat. Not willing to lose the behemoth, Denver jumped in the ocean and gaffed the fish.
