| At a glance I thought cookie cutter shark, but now that I see the bone, I agree with the marlin bill.

| That dolphin is like the my name is earl of the fish world. He was lucky enough to survive a marlin attack only for you to gaff him in the forehead moments later. Kinda like winning the lottery then getting hit by a car. Real nice fish though. I thought we would run by some friday afternoon but no such luck

| Yes. That would be a marlin or possibly a sword fish, because a swordfish has more of a tendecy to use his sword more than a blue. That is why it is called a sword on a sword fish and a bill on a blue.

| Whatever happened to it, you did that fish a favor! He wouldn't have survived much longer longer with that thing. All that resistance, only a matter of time before it was culled by another gamefish.

| The fish actually had been hit in its body as well which is visible in some of the photos i took. When i cleaned teh fish , he had some servere damage along his spine , with blood that looked like beef jerky extending the length of the wound. He for sure had been in a fight for his life with a very large gamefish recently. As for friday fishing , it was off the hook as they say . We lfet the Dolphin biting serveral times to find wahoo and mabye a triple tail or two.
