KENYA: caught a 730 lb black marlin


Yesterday, "Neptune"skippered by Capt. Angus was out on the North Kenya Banks with the Andreas Knausenberger party from Germany.

After a very long day and quite bumpy sea, they landed a massive 330 kg - 730 lb Black Marlin and twelve  well sized Yellowfin Tuna (average size 55 lb 28 kgs) and a Silver Tip shark.

They make every effort to tag and release the big marlin, but regretably after a long fight, the marlin did die.
