Word from PGFC is that an estimated 120kg Black Marlin was tagged out at the trench today.
aswell as numerous hookups on blues and striped marlin in the past week.
please bring on some good weather!!!!!!

Stcik fish here!
I ran wide on Sat with two other PGFC boats and 3 marlin were hooked and one free jumper seen.
My fish nearly spooled me on 24kg even after we went to sunset and broke off on the cats paw connection to the wind on after about 7min. Fish est 500lb plus, never seen a fish take line like this greyhounded across the ocena for over 800m.
lesson learnt go to 37kg for rotto fish!
