Diver vs Fisherman

Today the water was a little rough as the trades were picking up so we had a couple hours to kill. Divers Owen Adams Sr.(above), Owen Jr., and Travis Masutani climbed on board and we headed to do some reef diving. We got a mixed bag of black and reds, with these nice stringer of menpachi, uhu, and jo-louis caught by Owen Sr.
After we finished washing up, we were talking story and eating lunch and this huge boat pulls up and in the bed of the truck is this giant Marlin.
They just caught it and it was so big it didn't fit in their fish box of this 30 ft. boat. Quickly the crew starts cooling the fish off with the water hose so it wouldn't spoil.

Then out comes Captain Ken, with a saw to cut off the bill so it would fit in their fish box. It weighed in at 425 lbs, so looks like lots of smoke marlin for this week. Let me know when I can swing by for a pick up. Ha ha!
