The white marlin is a small version of the Blue Marlin, it is however even more acrobatic, and twice as hard to hook. All of the billfish are my favorite fish to catch, the nice thing is while you are fishing for them you generally catch other species as well. The White Marlin is a beautiful fish that will jump a lot and usually catch them on lighter tackle. Many times if there is one there are more. It is not uncommon to have 3 to 4 in your spread at one time. We catch these fish in many of the same areas as the Blue Marlin, so that keeps you on the edge of your seat all day, staring at the baits because all billfish usually show themselves before the attack a bait. So what I am saying is stand by for a lot of scrambling in the cockpit until the fish is hooked! Then we settle down for the task at hand and that is to grab the leader and release the fish. We catch the White Marlin in about the same time frame as the Blue Marlin. Early spring through late summer.
