I went out about 40 miles to some grassline on the rip outta grand isle. I was fishin for chicken dolphin and I guess I left one on the hook a little too long cause a white marlin smashed it, it was awesome! I Am gonna start targeting them things from now on Imma catch a grander!

Catch a grander? That could be tough since the world record white is 181 lbs.

i hear tell theres a blue marlin out there that will eat divers and sink boats... I just ordered a shimano 80 wide for $700 it has 3000 feet of line on it so yea Im gonna catch a grander in my little boat I already know what needs to be done all the records are just suggestions Im gonna double up maybe 2 world record fish in one day on gopro and I might even end up in the florida sportsman magazine with 2 fine womens in bikinis baiting my hooks for me. maybe get a boat with a diesel motor and take a trip to the bahamas
