After an exhausting 31/2 hour fight the fish hits the surface, unfortunately unable to be revived the fish is gaffed and boated.

Arriving back at Watamu the marlin is taken to shore to be weighed.

She hits the scales at 630lb


It was a shame we could not revive this magnificent fish, but nothing went to waste and was well received by the local community.
