Congratulations to Anthony Trimino who was fishing with Captain Dan Shaffer and deckman John Jordan aboard the Desperado, when he landed a sweet 521.6-pound blue marlin (Makaira mazara). The Desperado, a 31′ Bertram that runs out of Lahaina, Hawaii, was fishing about five miles off of Launiupoko Park when the fish initially hit a jet head lure, but ended up taking a different lure on a second second strike.

This is the fifth largest marlin taken this season by the Lahaina fishing fleet. 

FISH ON!
