This story comes from back in August of 1977 when Capt. Marty was Mate Marty on the Sundancer with Capt. Nevin Wescott. The Sundancer and The Fightin' Lady, with Capt. Sam Stokes aka 'Goldfinger' and his mate, the now famous boatbuilder John Bayliss, powered offshore for what would be a fun day of fishing during what they called "marlin season". Not long after setting out the spread, The Fightin' Lady hooked up to a humongous blue marlin... and the fight was on....FOR A VERY LONG TIME! 

How long? Just listen...
