TUNA /Marlin
Hi M.M.:
I just tried to post a reply but something went wrong. Pardon my comp. illteracy. I'll try again.
B R A V O ! ! ! ! ! !
Your catch ratio on Blues and Whites is OUTSTANDING. Keep on doing the things you do.
That kind of fishing demands dedication , and passion that I wish I could give to Marlin fishing.
I'm hoping that maybe , just maybe , if you feel up to it , to write a short article on the basics of your Marlin fishing .
NO M.M. , I'm not asking for your hard earned specifics of your fishing, just the basics. Lure speed ,placement , types in a general way.
Wasn't there a monthly publication out of N.J. , that had guest captains write short brief general articles on their specialties? Maybe the NOREAST publication would publish a small article from you. Not now M.M. , how about in January or February when where all house bound???????
Again M.M. , B R A V O ! !
My hats off to you.

Throttles,
Thanks for the kind words. I won't be staying at the marina this year, but I'll probably come in fairly often. See you around.
Bigeye,
I really just run my basic canyon spread. Maybe throw in one marlin lure, like a light 'n glow in the shotgun position just to make some noise. We've caught marlin off every lure in almost every position. Last year a big blue swam right through the spread and hit a green zucker just off the transom. IMHO the key is finding the right water with the right bait. Seems like the big blues like to trail the albacore schools.

Marlin n such
Hi M.M.:
Yes , your right. A friend of mine wacked a Blue when he hit that water where they hang out. He actually had a Alby on and the Blue just came up and crushed the Alby.
I was on a private boat down South in the Big Rock area. Had some Blues up but no takers. GEEZ , M.M. , That was WILD !. Just seeing those bruisers comming up in your spread sure gets my knees knocking. I'm getting to old for that kind of excitement.
What was in the spread was two slant faced white water pushers(long rigger). Two bullet shaped straight runners (medium spaced) and two lures up tight and personal like! One of these was a medium slant faced jet on one side(no T'Zers) and across from that was a deep runner.
Again M.M.:
