man catches marlin with bare hands

[mems]

Aloha, just got the new april edition of Hawaii fishing news. This is not an april fools joke, a guy in kona caught a blue marlin with his bare hands at A-bay in Kona. He saw the small male marlin, 60lbs swimming in the shallows chasing bait and he waded out and grabbed the marlin by the tail. It jumped and knocked him down. He jumped up and grabbed the marlin by the tail and dragged it up the beach. There are a bunch of pictures. It is just unreal. Mems.

Aloha Don,.... Do Blue Marlin ever go into skinny water :?: Hard to imagine that a guy could catch a fish like that by towing it in by the tail. Wouldn't it turn and spear the guy :?: :?: Maybe it was sick.... :confused:

Strange stuff....
