Marlin continue with their hot bite with plenty of striped marlin and the odd blue caught in the Alliance Tag & Release Tournament out of Bermagui on the weekend. At only 10 years of age, Makayla Buttigieg caught an amazing 147kg striped marlin on 24kg line after an hour and a half fight. This was off the back of catching a pending Australian and NSW record 92.5kg striped marlin on 15kg line the day before. A big congratulations to Makayla, her dad Darren and the crew on 'Happy Hour'.
