Cairns Giant Black Marlin

Just Finished an epic week of fishing on the GBR popping the reef in the morning and chasing Blacks in the arvo.
We got a PB for the boat as the biggest billy I will let you be the judge.

Epic mate my heart is still raising we had one of the hottest bites on big girls for allegedly fifteen years.
The comp was slow but last week was awesome with fish raised but not converted.
Let alone the popping which I will leave for another blog.
