This 450 pound black marlin was caught off Cairns, Australia. After about 22 minutes it panicks and goes down deep, where the sharks live. Big mistake. At least we got to keep the Bill! As for the size, its the Captain who makes the call, not me. Barry Cross (skip) estimated it to be around 450lbs, so thats what i go with even though i might agree with some that its closer to 350 than 450. For a reference, at the end of the video when i'm holding the head, i'm 6'4". It might also be helpful ...

    Nice video, and a real heartbreaker.
    I would put the fish about 225. The Great White may have been 450 or more, but not the marlin.
    This may be an even greater memory than catching the fish.
    Well done.
