Not a black marlin,  but nevertheless a marlin proudly caught, tagged and released to the waters off Sydney



And every fisherman’s dream come true :-    
“MARLIN MASTERED AT HARBOUR GATES” 
A 50kg black marlin was caught, marked and returned to the water at the entrance to Sydney Harbour.’
Daily Telegraph-  13/2/15  ‘GONE FISHING’  with Al McGlashan
Al commented that in all the years he has fished Sydney waters, that he always had wanted to catch a marlin, not offshore, but right between North Head and South Head. 
Al concluded, “Sydney Harbour just keeps on getting better and better these days because where else in the world could you catch a marlin just minutes from the city?”
