I wish that Marlin fishing was that easy LOL! Anyways everytime I am on the water I see something different than the previous times. I love this sport.

Wow that's amazing, what a sight that must have been. By the way, what does "gobsmacked" mean?

Interesting story and non-catch catch

It is slang for utterly astonished or astounded.

I just read this - that is an absolutely amazing catch (or rather find) and I almost don't know whether to think it is a hoax or what. Roddy Hays has stated that they have been caught on the West coast of Ireland but for one to turn up in west Wales stretches believability to the limit. Apparently back in 1983 a white marlin got washed up in Morecambe Bay and another in 1982 in the Isles of Scilly (which are about as far southwest as you can go in UK waters) but a blue ... That really is unusual.
