White marlin fishing in the old days

I saw an article in the fisherman about fishing in the old days. Their editor, Fred Galafolo recalled marlin fishing back in the 1960's. He recalled raising 20 white marlin in a day while fishing within sight of Fire Island. What happened to all those great marlin ? I hope that great fishing returns.
As a kid growing up in the 1970's I was fortunate enough to have experienced the great weak fishing in the peconics and the great flounder fishing. I also experienced the great sharking.
I also saw the Russian trawlers that ruined the fishing here.
Tell us your stories of fishing in the old days. They are so nice to hear and read about.
