The hole in the fish's side is where the angler punched through and ripped the Marlin's heart out....he did that instead of using a bat.

Chris Hood (8/18/2008) The hole in the fish's side is where the angler punched through and ripped the Marlin's heart out....he did that instead of using a bat.I've done that a few times myself. It always brings a much more satisfying feeling. Thats a pretty big fish by the way
