anybody that says they are gonna fight a fish 3+ hours and cut it loose is a damn liar or fool.. simple as that



or someone that has no business keeping 800lbs of fish?? I've seen fish a quarter that size get tagged and released. I don't care what YOU do, but I just don't care for it to be honest.

I'd like to see the amount of fish that died shortly after being fought for hours. I'd be surprised if it wasn't a good amount of them.

I understand people wanting to tag and release, but if I caught a monster like that, it'd be hard for me to release it.

More than likely after a 13 hour fight the fish was DOA when it got to the boat so had to keep it. Ate Marlin in Hawaii years ago, some of the best fish I have ever eaten, it won't go to waste.
