Casa De Campo Marlin Masters Invitational 2008

Beautiful boats, nice weather, and a great time, is how I would describe the Marlin Masters. The old man and the sea also come to mind. I could not believe what I witnessed, roughly a 19 foot panga catching two Marlin on hand lines!!!! Don't believe me? see for yourself(sixth picture down). The little panga followed the marlin around as the man fought it on a hand line. After several minutes and some spectacular jumps, the two guys gafted the Marlin and then proceded to beat it with a club. Afterwards they managed to get it aboard, as we watched in amazement from a 3 million dollar plus yacht. I guess you really don't need anything fancy to catch fish. Come to think of it.... We did'nt catch anything that day, even though we trolled around the same FAD(Fish Attracting Device)all morning.
