130 lb. Marlin and 5 foot Hammerhead

Last week I was in Mexico with my family and caught some decent fish. We were in the Sea of Cortez about 10 miles off the shore of Loreto, B.C.S. First we caught a 5 foot Hammerhead Shark and later got an 8 foot 130 pound marlin. We let our captain keep the hammerhead, but we kept the Marlin. We faught the hammerhead for about 20 minutes and the marlin for about an hour. Well worth the fight for the prize. I would highly reccommend taking a fishing trip to the Sea of Cortez if you like to fish. It was amazing! Enjoy the pics.

The Hammerhead



And the Marlin

It is hard for me to compare the taste of marlin to other fish. I would describe marlin as having a strong taste. I don't know if that really means anything though. The best way to cook it that I have tried is to marinade it for a few minutes then throw it on the BBQ. We had it sauted at the resort with lemon and some sauce, but I think it was overcooked. On the BBQ it was amazing.
