Deano & Darrens Black Marlin Recapture

Deano & Darrens Black Marlin Recapture

On March 24th Deano Bartleson on “One Way” tagged a solo Black Marlin on the 18 mile, chuffed with the solo release Deano headed home. Most of us would think the 12kg Marlin would jump in the current and head south.

On the 5th of June fellow SCGFC member Darren Lee fishing on board “Misty” caught an estimated 12 kg Black Marlin on the 18 mile only to find in the opposite shoulder it had a relatively fresh tag, the fish was released in healthy condition to fight another day. The fish was at liberty 73 days and we look forward to Sam Williams thoughts on the recapture.
