4 Black Marlin in 2 Days off Durban
Marlin Report – 11-12 February 2020
Wow, finally after some really difficult fishing trips some Cobalt Blue water averaging 28.5deg.C has moved in and we had 2 fantastic days of fishing with 4 guests from the UK and each of them got to fight a Black Marlin in South Africa. We had 6 Marlin come into the spread over the 2 days, 5 hook ups; we dropped 1 and successfully released 4. We also got some Yellowfin Tuna and Oceanic Bonito.
The 3 larger Marlin came out in deeper waters but Marlin number 2 was a small guy that took us by surprise just before lines up and we hooked him up less than 3km from port and released him close to the harbour mouth.
Well done Shawn, Jaymes, Dicky and Rod.
