Why this one is here

The record was taken on Indian River, which is the water the boats on this page fish — not Palm Shores itself. A record is what came over the rail once; it is not what to expect on a trip.

Blue marlin must measure 99 inches and white marlin 66 inches, lower jaw to fork, and the boat needs a federal HMS permit. Seasons change, so check each fish page or ask the captain before you keep one.
