Fishing Photographer's Giant Marlin Photo on Magazine Cover

The huge 600 pound marlin that bounced off the press boat, broke hook, and swam to freedom at the 2010 Hawaiian International Billfish Tournament (HIBT) continues to make big fish news!

The picture shown above that I took as the big fish was jumping towards our press boat is now on the cover of Marlin Magazine's March 2012 issue. Yahoo!

I wonder how that big girl is doing now? You probably know that most large marlin are females. Hopefully the fish is continuing to reproduce and eating 100 pound tuna for snacks in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

If you don't remember this famous fish tale, click here to see how this marlin was one of the top photos and news stories of the summer of 2010.
