Experience teaches lessons in life. The good, bad and
ugly of decision making plagues all species, including
blue marlin. At 170 pounds wisdom is still a fish dream.
At 170 pounds there won't be any questioning. It looks
like a meal and tastes like a meal, but the hidden gaff
finds its flesh and fear consumes every move
and breath.Sweating and the pain of pulling on the rod. Voices. Salt
and sun. There's little thought of anything but playing
the game, keeping the rules, enjoying the pleasure
of the fight.
THE ONE THAT DIDN'T GET AWAY
