The Marlin bajablanca posted were also smoked for food.

Dead or not, the Marlin pictured with you and your family(?) looks an awful lot like a trophy photograph to me...

Blanca,
A few years back I posted a picture of a marlin with three very happy fishermen --- one of our local fishing guides and some family. It was not hanging because there was no where to hang it, so they were just sitting next to it. They were really excited to catch one in Asuncion.

The poop hit the fan around this forum --- anger, judgement, etc. Ni modo. The fish was consumed, the fishermen were, surprised, thrilled and proud, and as their friend, I was happy for them. Since this was a rare catch, I think the marlin are quite safe from being over-fished in our area.

There should still be plenty of marlin around for the expensive fishing tournaments.

Excuse me. I'm new to this site and don't know if I'm on the right page. I was looking for fishing info. This looks like a page for getting your penis measured.

Everybody always gets P O'd because the recreational fisherman catches a marlin and keeps it, most of those people are the "Elite tournament holy'er than thou crowd" and their more worried there won't be that marlin worth $1,000,000 to them at the Bisbees tournament. Anybody that is really concerned about the future of the species needs channel their energy towards the by catch in the commercial fishing industry and not the recreational fisherman that catches and EATS one occasionally. If the indiscrimate killing by the commercial fleets was stopped there would be an overabundance of marlin, sharks, tuna, turtles.....
I understand it's a lot easier to roast the recreational fisherman here on this board to try and get your point across but step up and get in the real fight if you are that passionate about saving billfish.

well, hello again everyone ! I thought I would post the BACK of Les's fishing license:








I did get a U2U from BILL COLLECTOR

Bill Collector is a she, BTW

and she still thinks the Mexican law is that it is one marlin per boat and not per license or fisherperson, that is why I am posting the above.

I would like to say THANKS to all of you who have posted clear concise nonjudgemental points of view. and those of you who have made me laugh out loud ....THANKS !

We are missing some folks on this thread ... Dennis ??? please say somethin !!! Roger/Pompano ??? What say thee ? Are you not out of the hospital yet ? We need your words of wisdom, no post is complete without you ! We can wait ... but be fast !

Still amazed that Bill Collector and others have not acknowledged the error of his/her interpretation of the law, despite requests to document his/her interpretation from an organ of the Mexican government, NOT SOME ELITIST TOURNAMENT RULES. It is very clear. ONE PER ANGLER.

Regardless of ethics, legally it is ONE PER ANGLER. I suspect the anglers pictured dont frequent websites where the ETHICS of this are an issue.

I dont take marlin but I have to admit, there seems to be no shortage of them in the Sea, even if this was outside the Sea. These creatures range tremendously.

Mexican hunting regulations say you can have 120 dove in your possession, too. I wonder the reaction if there was a picture of three hunters with 360 dead doves on a table. Just saying.....:?::?::?:

Hello Blanca and congrats on the good fishing down your way.........First yes the catch if totally LEGAL.......Do I encourage catch and release of Marlin? I sure do but there is nothing wrong with keeping one now and then.........

And yes what we should be worried about is the commercial fishing, thats what is going to kill this sport for future generations........
Heck as you know La Bocana and other coops in the area are still gill netting the area which in my opinion(and many others) are hurting some of the local fish populations.
I've watched with my own eyes over and over again all the fish unloaded from the Gill Net pangas.

Actually that is a fairly common occurence with billfish, when caught they try to escape with jumping and thrashing about on the surface of the water. If that does not work, they will purge their stomachs in an attempt to get rid of whatever is causing them the problem. When reviving the fish by pulling it in the water with your boat, you can watch the stomach return to normal.
