Steven Seger marlin wish 7/1/10

Steven and his wife came back to Kona in hopes of catching Steven his first blue marlin. They chartered my father last year on the "Pamela" with another couple, they had some great action, releasing a couple striped marlin and breaking line on a Grander. But Steven, being so Kind let the other couple get all the action. This year it was his turn...

The morning was very slow for everybody, but we didn't give up, we stuck to working the good marlin grounds. Our hard work paid off, just after lunch, when a wave of white water engulfed the short bait, and Steve was looking at his first blue marlin. The fish gave us a great show, and a good fight. We got it up to the boat for some pictures and released it in fine shape to fight another day.

Aloha, Capt. Teddy Hoogs
