Got White Flags??


Usually, the September White Marlin bite is like none other and this year proves no different. The Lizanne decided to stay at Sunset Marina in OC Maryland another week following the Challenge Cup. This decision would later be describe as the best call a captain could make.

Later that week, White Marlin release whispers of boats producing single day numbers in the twenties had the crew heading out. That day, the Lizanne had the best day a fishing crew could imagine. White Marlin was in abundance and there was no sign of slowing down. The Lizanne released 12 Whites and should have had another 7, meanwhile seeing at least 30 tailing…

Great Day for a fisherman and glad to see the White Marlin numbers do exist. Thanks to conservation awareness and circle hooks the fatality rate is low and hopefully the trend & numbers continues for years to come.
