PIC: Alabama Woman Catches 843-Pound Blue Marlin After 3-Hour Battle

Fire up the grill

I've seen one of those while hanging off of a lifeboat at the "Salsa" platform wiring a radio up. They are awesome and it sucks to see one hanging there for bragging rights.

eat it. marlin is delicious

Now what do you do with 844 lbs of dead blue marlin? Seriously?

How does somebody pull an 800+ pound fish into a boat?

Hebert, who is an Air Force flight surgeon and a marathon runner, has caught giant yellowfin tuna and released smaller marlin before now. But this is her largest catch yet and it’s the largest marlin ever weighed by a lady angler in the tournament’s 16-year history.

Iona Louise was fishing about 30 miles south of South Pass, Louisiana, in 2,250 feet of water near the Ewing Bank, when the marlin ate a live five-pound blackfin tuna off the starboard outrigger. The fish was caught on IGFA 80-pound line with a 300-pound leader. The crew had to wire the fish 15 times before they finally boated it.

I was there and there is no way that drunk bitch reeled that in... Just saying

I'd mount it. Maybe the fish too

I thought it would be a picture of her sister. Damn.

Larry,

You were on a roll. You have listened to the masses and started doing more babe stories. This article, however, was a mistake. It is only pseudo sports related and the girl is not pictured correctly.

She should be wearing only bikini bottoms and riding the dorsal fin of the marlin while covering her chest with a "hand bikini".

Since you decided to have her fully clothed alongside her father, I am disappoint.

Signed,

Larry's father.
